Hi, I am attaching my pic so I can explain what my issue is...the horizontal line that goes between my eyes. I am 50 and my brow is falling, that line and indent makes me look angry, I don't want a brow lift, can a filler and botox help? How long will it last?

Answer: What can I do for the horizontal line between my eyes??? Ask Dr. Ellen… The first step would be to inject Botox into this area to help decrease muscle action which is contributing to line formation. Botox is a protein that when injected into your facial muscles, reduces the muscle fibers capacity to contract. This process usually takes 5-7 days to take effect and can last for 3-4 months. If the line has been there a long time, it may take a round or two of Botox until you see marked improvement. If, after the Botox settles in there is still a residual crease, fillers may be needed to help get the desired result. It is best to always go to an experienced injector who can answer these questions! In Good Health, Ellen Mahony MD

Answer: Horizontal line? Yes. I believe Botox or Dysport can help with the horizontal line between the eyes! A dermal filler might Be needed, but not a first step! Good luck! Dr. Aldo
