I have used Botox for some years in glabella. I have always had a triangular hollow between brows. The past 5 years I have had filler there with success. Lately the filler won’t stay in place, acreating ridges on both sides while the hollowness remains. What can I do to have a flat area? I have tried massaging the filler and it helps for 10 mins. It seems like it’s never enough, going 3-4 times a year while previously once every year and it looked good. What can I do?

Answer: Filler and botox together Glabella is highly mobile area. It is also one of the most dangerous areas of the face to get injections.You should have gotten botox only to maintain the results of the filler . Botox prevents the movement of the muscles and will also help to keep the filler in place. It will also allow the filler to remain longer. In my practice of 9 years, if and when I do glabella filler, it's a one time treatment only. never recurrent like you have been describing. You may also discuss and try RF microneedling to tighten the skin and reduce pores size and potentially the depth of the wrinkles. Always try to discuss options with your treating doctor.

Answer: For Glabella Region: Consider Combining Botox & HA Filler Combining Botox to quiet the dynamic folding with HA filler for the residual static indentation typically prolongs the results greater than would be obtained from either treatment used alone. You would be wise to consult with a board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert. Best of luck.
