Is it possible to use implants for deep frown glabellar lines between eyebrows?

Question

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

No, frown lines aren't typically treated with implants. Deep glabella lines can be improved with Botox combined with fillers, lasers and microneedling/prp. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Hello, the simple answer to your question is absolutely not.  The frown lines are forming because of the constant muscle movement, so if you get an implant, which I don't think anyone should ever do, the muscle will move over the implant. How deep are your lines? How old are you? What treatments have you tried?  If you have deep lines to the point that you are considering permanent solutions, you should look into botox+ fillers+ laser resurfacing+ micro needling and you need to give it time.  Hope this helps.

Frown lines are not an area that is tipicaly treated with implants.  The lines are caused by the actions of muscles puckering the skin.  Relaxing the muscles with botox is usually the first line of treatment.  If the  lines are very deep dermal fillers are sometimes used to fill this area.  More permanent solutions would be to do some laser resurfacing or microneedling with or without PRP.  This is a very advanced area to inject so please make sure that the provider is very experienced if doing dermal fillers.
