What are the risks of a corrugator resection? (Photo)

Kkpinks
I am desperate to stop frowning so often and intensely. I believe I have hypertrophic corrugator muscles and would like surgery (I cannot have Botox due to medical issues, as Not recommended by my neurologist and ophthalmologist). This leads me to surgery. Would love to know 1. Do you think I'm a candidate for a partial or full resection? 2. If so, what are the risks and potential complications? 3. Anything I should ask doctors who I'm evaluating? Thanks in advance.
