I have the number 11 frown lines on my forehead even when my face is at rest. I'm just 29 and its so obvious. I do not want to have botox or filler injections. Which laser is the best to remove them? I heard picosure was the best. Is that true? Does anyone have before and after results showing this
Answer: Glabellar Lines / 11s / Frown Lines -- Neuromodulators (Botox/Dysport/Xeomin/Jeuveau), Fillers, Lasers, Microneedling/PRP "For glabellar lines (or frown lines / ""11"" lines), we inject Botox, Xeomin, or Dysport into the muscle, causing the muscle to weaken and improving the appearance of the lines. These work by binding to receptors that send nerve signals for muscles to contract. Since your body makes new receptors and neurotransmitters all the time, it needs to be maintained otherwise the wrinkles will slowly return as the muscle regains function over time. Neurotoxins take 2 to 4 weeks to start working and lasts for up to 6 months. For deeper glabella lines or strong 11s, I use a combination of Botox with fillers, lasers and microneedling with PRP. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist and expert in lasers and fillers. Best, Dr. Emer "

Answer: Picosure for Frown Lines Hi Osha, unfortunately Picosure will not remove your frown lines. The lines are caused by muscle movement and this is why Botox (Dysport) works best. You will not find before and after photos for Picosure on frown lines because this type of result will not happen with that laser (or likely any laser). To see frown lines treated with injections, click on the link below.

Answer: PIcoSure Thanks for your question. PicoSure is designed for tattoo removal and does treat wrinkles but that is more of a secondary or even tertiary benefit. You may want to consider Botox. This would enable the nerves to contract, thus smoothing out fine lines such as elevens, and prevent them for returning with ongoing treatments. Hope this helps. Best, Dr. Katz
