My main issues to which I resorted to getting Botox was my glabella "11" lines. in my particular case, its really "1" since one muscle is predominantly stronger than the other. it took 35 units to finally get the area frozen. i am happy with the results however, i still see a "line" in the area. its not a deep wrinkle at all... it just looks like a shadow of where the line was is still there a bit. granted, when i grown, that mark is still there.any ideas how i can lighten that mark???

Answer: Combination Therapy with Botox and Juvederm / Filler
If you still see a line/wrinkle even when the area is completely frozen with Botox Cosmetic, it means that you have dermal atrophy that may be improved with a filler such as Juvederm. Botox Cosmetic works primarily on dynamic wrinkles - those wrinkles that appear with movement of the underlying muscle. Static wrinkles are those that are there at rest and are caused by years of stress on the skin from movement causing dermal atrophy. Over several treatments of Botox Cosmetic, you may see improvement of the static lines as well, but you may also need a filler such as Juvederm to "fill in" the line.
I hope this is helpful. Good Luck.

Answer: Serial botox treatments for persistent 11 lines
After you have furrowed your brows many, many times, an 11 crease can persist, even when your face is at rest. People generally notice that the crease diminishes with time and repeated injections. If it persists, an experienced injector can fill it with hyaluronic acid.
