How to Smooth Frown Lines

Frown lines are the vertical “eleven” wrinkles that develop between the eyebrows from making repeated facial expressions. Whether caused by frowning, squinting, or concentrating, these glabellar wrinkles typically deepen due to overactive facial muscles and can be noticeable even when the face is at rest in severe cases. While frown lines can be an inevitable part of aging, La Jolla plastic surgeon Scott Miller, MD offers many treatments to rejuvenate the upper face with effective wrinkle reduction, including:

  • Brow Lift: By lifting the skin and underlying tissues, a brow lift can smooth many upper facial creases that develop across the forehead, including frown lines between the eyebrows.
  • BOTOX® Cosmetic: BOTOX® Cosmetic is one of the most popular and convenient treatments to reduce frown lines. Made of an injectable neurotoxin designed to relax overactive muscles, BOTOX® Cosmetic can soften deep creases between the brows and alleviate a perpetually angry, stressed, or tired expression.
  • DAXXIFY®: An injectable treatment specifically focused on frown line reduction, DAXXIFY® is among the only non-surgical techniques to improve moderate to severe frown lines for as long as six to nine months.
  • Jeuveau™: Sometimes referred to as “the next generation of BOTOX,” Jeuveau™ is a wrinkle-relaxing injectable that can diminish frown lines for approximately three to four months. It is made with Hi-Pure™ technology, which means the solution was formulated under strict manufacturing and testing standards.
