I'm a 19 year old male and for awhile I've had a natural deep scowl. Botox is for older people but could it be used to smooth out these lines?
Answer: Botox Thank you for your question.Botox would not have an effect on nasolabial folds. A better option would be facial fillers which can help soften deep folds around the nose and mouth. To find out what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Facial Folds Cannot Be Treated With Botox -- You Need Fillers I suggest you see a cosmetic dermatologist for a formal evaluation as you likely need fillers given your folds and lack of facial fat in your photos. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Correcting the downward corners of the mouth with Juvederm. Correcting the downward corners of the mouth can be a rewarding filler procedure. Patients typically appear sad or angry due to this. Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm Ultra can be injected to accomplish this.

Answer: Correction of scowl Scowl means an angry expression. If you are referring to your down turned lips and nasolabial folds also known as smile lines that are seen in the picture, Botox is not the right treatment but rather facial fillers can be used to improve or correct the problem. Botox is used to correct frown lines between both medial portion of the brows. Please seek an experienced board certified plastic surgeon to consult for those treatments.Good luck!

Answer: How to correct a "scowl" So that we understand one another, by definition a "scowl" is a frown, which occurs in the forehead and is correctable with botox. However your photo does not show your forehead, but only your nasolabial folds (often called laugh lines) and your somewhat downturned mouth. So, I am not certain what you wish to correct, but in any event, the area you show is most well corrected with injectable fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm.
