2 Quick question: I had never had Botox before. One month ago I went for Botox to get rid of my frown lines. After 2 weeks I saw virtually no difference. I returned and he did a touch-up. I am on Day 8 of the touch up. The first photo show my relaxed face, and the second shows when I make a scowl. Do these results look typical? Do you think it can still improve without further treatment?

Answer: Botox for Frown Lines
Botox is very effective for treating the lines between your eyebrows when you frown. It is necessary to have the right dose and the right points of injection. The recommended dose to treat the glabellar frown lines (or 11's) which you are showing is 20 units. The dose may vary between individuals, but if a certain dose is not met, there will not be an effect. Also, if your lines remain at rest before treatment they may require additional treatments such as fillers, laser, or repeat botox injections to completely treat them.

Answer: No change after Botox is injected in the frown lines?
From the photos you provided, your frown lines do not appear to be an issue. But it is difficult to give you precise advice without seeing your before photos. Did you also have Botox injected to improve the appearance of your glabella, or what may also be referred to as the "11's" which are between the brow? Your result can be further enhanced by having this area treated. In general, Botox works great for the frown lines, smoker's lines above the upper lip, glabella, bunny lines, and crow's feet. I hope this helps answer your question, and I wish you the best of luck.
