I am 38 and have deep permanent/static frown lines between my eyes which I have noticed getting worse over the last few years. I would like to start Botox treatment however I am nervous about using fillers (which I know helps with the static/etched in lines). Is it possible for a significant IMPROVEMENT to be noticed in the static/etched in lines a period of time (could be years) while using only Botox?

Answer: Botox for dynamic wrinkles only Botox is for dynamic wrinkles, which are those that appear when you make facial expressions. Once you’ve got static frown lines, Botox is far less effective at rejuvenating your appearance than fillers. However, it may still result in a bit of an improvement, although it would be difficult to say by how much. You could start with Botox to see if you like the results. With repeated treatments, it may even help the area by preventing your current static wrinkles from getting worse.

Answer: Botox and frown lines Yes, Botox can help the frown lines between the eyes. If performed regularly, over years, the skin will remodel and that will help to improve or even eliminate the lines. It does take regular Botox treatments and a year or more, but you can get great improvements if you are patient and persistent.

Answer: "11" Lines -- Botox, Fillers, Lasers, Microneedling/PRP Botox shows a significant amount of improvement to this area. Skin improvement with microneedling/PRP and lasers also help. Sometimes fillers are needed to get the final improvement. I suggest consulting with an expert for evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
