I am a 67 yo female in good health. I have deep eleven wrinkles that continue to bother me. I have tried Botox type injections 6 or 7 times and it always make my eyelids a little droopy which bothers me just as much. Is this just the trade off I have or are there advances in this area? Thank you

Answer: Frown area Hello and thank you for your question. It is always best to see you face to face for a consult and examination however in this case if your frown was only to be treated it should not make you feel heavy. Heaviness is created by injecting in the forehead/frontalis muscle-In your case treating only the frown would help soften the area and also should lift your brows. I hope that helps answer your question. Always seek an experienced and qualified medical professional for these treatments. Very best wishes

Answer: Elevens Botox is the gold standard to treat the area that concerns you. I encourage you to visit with an experienced injector for your treatment. You should not experience droopy lids from your treatment. You can also enhance your results by adding Morpheus8 treatments. They use RF technology combined with microneedling to improve overall skin tone and texture.

Answer: Eleven wrinkles in seniors, are there advances in this area? Hello @NSacto, thank you for your question. I suggest developing an improvement plan that takes all aspects into account after completing a comprehensive evaluation. The botox application should not cause a feeling of heaviness in the eyebrow, this is determined by the technique used. For more information and recommendations, it is prudent to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.
