How Does Frown Line Filler Work?

25th June 2018 by PHI Clinic

Frown line filler is perfect for those stubborn glabella lines between the brows, especially when they have become static, or ‘etched-in.’ Also called bunny lines or elevens, these usually thick wrinkles can be brought on by factors that affect your skin health, like eating refined foods or consistently spending too much time in the sun.

Frown line filler

When frown lines appear ‘etched-in,’ we often recommend dermal fillers as the best course of treatment, for their ability to, as the name suggests, fill in the furrows. We exclusively use Juvederm dermal fillers, made by Allergan, for whom our medical director, Dr Tapan Patel, is a Global Key Opinion Leader. These fillers have a longevity of up to 24 months, and offer immediate results following treatment thanks to their HA based formula, which is made up of a naturally occurring cushioning agent for natural results with minimal product.

Botox

If glabellar lines are only visible during expression, and aren’t apparent when the face is at rest, then you may be more suited to a Botox treatment. This injectable treatment involves introducing a small amount of product into the muscle located beneath the frown lines via a needle. This has a relaxing effect, causing less movement in the area, reducing the appearance of the glabella lines for 3-4 months.

Botox can act as both a corrective and preventative measure for counteracting frown lines, and is seen as an ongoing treatment in order to experience continuous results.
