I have 2 horizontal glabellar creases that run across my nose between my eyes. I’m pretty sure they’re genetic because my dad has them, and are a result of a very expressive face and personality. I’m only 24 and have had two treatments of Botox in the past. It’s been 2 months since my last treatment and this time time around it doesn’t seem like the Botox accomplished anything. I also have an abundance of acne scars. Since I’ve stopped birth control my skin has improved a lot!

Answer: Botox To Glabella Didn't Work Sorry to hear about your Botox experience. Looking at your pictures, you appear to be a good candidate for Botox to the area to help weaken your strong muscles. It may be that you didn't get enough Botox or the placement was incorrect. I would consider another try with an experienced physician injector. If for some reason you are Botox resistant then a treatment like ThermiRase can disable the nerves in the area long term, providing a Botox like effect. As for your acne scars, a combination of treatments can provide improvement. Make sure you see an experienced provider. Best wishes.

Answer: Improving horizontal wrinkles with Botox/Xeomin/Dysport, fillers, lasers and microneedling/prp Botox can be used to improve horizontal lines. Deeper wrinkles need a combination approach with Botox and lasers, microneedling/prp and fillers. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer
