Men’s Botox for the 11s (photo)

I have routinely been treating this very common problem for many years with very gratifying and durable results. Glabellar "frown lines" result from two underlying causes, both of which should ideally be treated in order to achieve satisfying and durable results.
The underlying cause of these lines is typically the daily repetitive movement of the muscles of expression located there, which we tend to use numerous times each day. Over the years, especially as we enter midlife, the overlying :"fabric" of our skin becomes permanently etched and creased, so that even when the underlying muscles are at rest, the skin continues to show the "frown lines." as is the case here.
So, for best and more durable cosmetic improvement, a two-pronged approach is used. Botox can be used to address the movements of the underlying muscles (The intent is not to "freeze" the muscles so that you cannot emote, but rather to diminish their overactivity), and a low viscosity, malleable, cohesive HA filler can be used to elevate and smooth the creases in the "fabric" of the skin.
In the hands of an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert, the very superficially placed injections needed to achieve elevation and smoothing of the etched lines "eleven lines" typically poses little risk.
Please note: unfortunately, the hard science to promote the use of so-many of today's expensive, here-today-gone tomorrow light and energy-based gizmos, like fraxel lasers, RF devices, etc, lags woefully behind the heavy marketing and social media buzz that hawks them. So, you would be wise to exercise a whole lot of "buyer beware" when being presented with these types of options Hope this helps and best of luck.

Dear Dude thank you for your question.

Sometimes the 11 limes require adjunct treatment modalities in order to be resolved. Sometimes a bit of hialuronic filler may help in making them less visible, and in certain patients treatments focusing on the skin like CO2 laser or peelings can achieve good results.

Hello! Thank you for such a great question. When assessing your glabella (the area between your eyebrows), you have what we call "static lines" or lines that are present on your face even at rest with no facial movement. Static lines become increasingly difficult to treat the longer they go without treatment. Starting with Botox to this area is a great first step, as this will relax the muscles that cause these creases (the procerus & the corrugator muscles) and will slowly soften these lines over time.

When deep static lines are present, it may take multiple treatments of Botox to truly start to soften these lines, as they have been forming for 50 years and have become a deep crease. The use of Botox will be great to prevent these lines from getting any deeper as you continue to age as well.

However, wanting to treat these lines completely may require multiple modalities of treatment including Botox + potentially using filler to fill these lines to help minimize their appearance.
