It is extremely noticeable when I look in the mirror or take pictures a certain way. It wouldn't bother me as much if I was older but I am only 18 suffering with this and it is a huge insecurity of mine. Is there any way this can be treated other than Botox because I feel as if I'm too young to have something injected in my face.
Answer: Eleven lines Hi, Thank you for your question. Typically we would recommend Botox, Xeomin or Dysport for the Glabella (the eleven lines in between the eyebrows) because you would need to control the muscle first. Typically once those muscles are controlled those lines soften.It can take up to 2 weeks to see the full results of one of the toxins, after that if the lines are still deep then you would follow up with your board certified plastic surgeon to see what other procedures or options that could be offered to help soften the lines even more.

Answer: Vertical Dents Between The Eyes Respond Best To A Combination Of Botox & Filler Vertical dents (creases) between the eyebrows are in fact fairly common, even among younger persons. They arise from repetitive motion of the scowl (frown) line muscles between the eyes, which, after daily motion of those muscles over years, finally leaves a permanent crease in the skin. So, the way to best deal with this kind of problem is actually to address both issues. Botox, Dysport or Xeomin (so-called neuromodulators) address the underlying muscular overactivity that gave rise to it in the first place and continues to deepen it. Fillers may then be used to smooth the etched-in crease that is already formed. Combining both techniques generally leads to a longer period of benefit than can be achieved with either method used alone. And, as to whether you are too young for any of this, the short answer is when it is needed, no matter what age, is the right time for it. Make sure that you consult with a board certified aesthetic physician and ask to see his/her personal before after photos before agreeing to proceed. Best of luck.

Answer: Botox for frown lines between eyebrows It would be easier to answer your question if we could see a photo, however Botox, a safe muscle-relaxing agent derived from Botulinum, is usually an effective solution for vertical frown lines between the eyebrows.

Answer: Improving vertical wrinkle--Botox/Xeomin/Dysport, fillers, lasers, microneedling/prp This can be treated with Botox. Deeper wrinkles can be improved with a combination of Botox with fillers, lasers, and microneedling/prp. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Deep wrinkles The exact nature of treatment for that would be after looking at the area of concern but overall a combination of botox and fillers will get rid of those deep wrinkles.
