Effective Solutions for Frown Lines Treatment

The appearance of these lines can inadvertently make you look tired, stressed and constantly angry – even if you’re feeling very happy and content! Those who show a great deal of emotion and empathy throughout their daily life are more likely to experience distinct frown lines upon their face. But, if you wish to eliminate them and achieve a smoother-looking appearance, anti-wrinkle injections are a great option for achieving this.

Typically, treatment for frown lines will require around 5-7 anti-wrinkle injections directly into the glabella muscles. Over the next 5–14 days, the muscles relax – causing these frown lines to relax, creating a much smoother, more friendly-looking area free of deep-set lines, elevenses, tram-lines and that “Angry-Birds” look!

Injections work by essentially ‘switching off’ the nerve endings in muscles, causing them to relax. The muscle in question is no longer able to contract – this then softens the appearance of lines and wrinkles with the skin covering these muscles able to regenerate. Anti-wrinkle treatments can also be used in the armpits to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).

Treatments will be discussed with you in more detail during your initial consultation, whereby a recommendation will be given specific to you and your skin type. As well as anti-wrinkle treatments which act as a wrinkle reduction technique, we offer filler treatments, which as the name suggests are more of a wrinkle filler procedure. Wrinkle fillers are simply used as ‘volumizers’ plumping and lifting cheeks, jawlines, filling out thin lips or reshaping uneven lips. The fillers plump up the tissue underneath the skin, shrinking wrinkles. As a result, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and younger looking! 

Enhancing wrinkles with a natural ingredient to our skin, delivers a natural look and feel to the problem areas.

What causes Frown lines?

Frown lines are primarily caused by ageing. As you age, your skin loses elasticity and doesn’t easily return to its original shape. Other things that contribute to having frown lines are genetics, sunlight, repeated expressions, stress and smoking.
