Understanding Frown Lines and Treatment Options
Frown lines, also known as “11 lines,” result from repetitive muscle contractions in the glabella region, involving muscles such as the corrugator and procerus. While Botox effectively smooths these lines, other treatments like dermal fillers or laser resurfacing may be recommended for deeper wrinkles. A thorough consultation will help determine the best approach for your skin.
