I've had botox twice over the past couple of years and both times was disappointed in that, whilst fixing my "11s" it also blocked my ability to raise my inner eyebrows, resulting in a slight droop. It feels like the muscles just above/ along the inner brow) squeeze everything down and in, whilst the muscles just above the centre of my nose lift. Can you fix the glabella by injecting JUST the corrugators and NOT anywhere in the centre of my eyebrows?

Answer: Botox in the corrugator only? (Not the procerus). Thank you for your excellent question. Paralysis of the corrugated muscles should help resolve any vertical wrinkle development in the glabellar region while procerus inactivation helps to treat the horizontal wrinkles at the top of your nose. With paralysis of these areas this should prevent your brows from drooping. If botox is placed near your eyebrow causes the frontalis muscle to weaken (the muscle responsible for elevating your brow and which creates horizontal forehead wrinkles ) this may lower your brow. I would recommend seeing an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon and discuss your previous injection pattern and amounts used to try and adjust the injection pattern to not have your eyebrows affected. Hope this helps.

Answer: Inject just corrugators with Botox? I do this frequently for people who don't get horizontal creases in the nasion with frowning. This isn't going to correct the problem though. What is happening is the lower frontalis is getting hit with the Botox too. The injection needs to be done deep and low in the medial corrugators and the depressor supercilii needs to be injected too.
