If you have deep wrinkles between your eyebrows even when not making facial expressions, or if your habit of frequently frowning makes your impression look harsh, you might consider glabellar Botox. Since the glabellar area is close to the eyes, it is said that rather than simply comparing prices, it is important to perform the procedure appropriately by considering muscle movements and the condition of the wrinkles.

Today, I will summarize everything from the reasons why frown lines form to what frown line Botox is, its effects, price, treatment frequency, and duration of effects.

1. Reasons why wrinkles form between the eyebrows

1) Repetitive facial expression habits

If you repeatedly have a habit of furrowing your brows when squinting or concentrating, your skin will continue to fold in the same direction. Initially, these wrinkles only appear when you make facial expressions, but over time, they can remain even when you are not making any facial expressions.

 

2) Skin aging

As we age, skin elasticity and regenerative power decrease, so the ability of repeatedly folded skin to return to its original state also diminishes. It is said that this can cause frown lines to become fixed.

 

3) Ultraviolet rays and lifestyle habits

It is said that prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays can cause skin aging and make wrinkles more pronounced.

2. What is glabellar Botox?

Glabellar Botox is a procedure that involves injecting botulinum toxin into the facial muscles around the forehead to temporarily reduce muscle contraction. It is said that reducing muscle movement decreases the degree to which the skin folds tightly when making facial expressions, which can help alleviate frown lines.

 

- Effects of glabellar Botox

1) Relief of frown lines

One of the effects of glabellar Botox is to alleviate the parallel lines that form when frowning. It is said that by reducing muscle contraction, it minimizes the repetitive folding of the skin, helping the wrinkles appear less prominent.

 

2) Helps soften the impression

People who furrow their brows intensely can give the impression of being angry or tired even in everyday life. It is said that relaxing the movement of the muscles between the eyebrows can have the effect of making one's facial expression appear relatively softer.

 

3) Reduces the deepening of frown lines

Expression lines can gradually deepen as the same area folds repeatedly. It is said that properly controlling muscle movements during the early stages of dynamic wrinkles can help reduce the degree of repeated skin folding.

3. Price of glabellar Botox

The price of glabellar Botox may vary depending on the botulinum toxin product used, the required dosage, the medical institution, and whether there is a promotion.

The price of Maypure glabella Botox is said to be 19,000 won per area based on the event price.

 

- Reasons why frown line Botox prices vary

1) Botulinum toxin products: Differences depending on whether they are domestic or imported products, etc.

2) Dosage: Varies depending on the degree and extent of muscle development

3) Treatment Area: Whether the glabella is treated alone or as a combination of the forehead, eye area, etc.

4) Event Availability: Prices vary depending on promotions and packages.

4. Duration of Glabellar Botox Effect and Treatment Cycle

If you are considering glabellar Botox, you may also be curious about the duration of the effect.

 

1) Duration of glabellar Botox

Generally, the effects of glabellar Botox vary depending on the individual and the product, but the effects appear within 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure and are said to last for about 3 to 4 months on average.

 

2) Glabella Botox Treatment Cycle

Generally, the decision regarding re-treatment is made when the effect wears off and the movement of the glabellar muscles strengthens again. The treatment cycle may vary depending on individual muscle strength, dosage, number of previous treatments, and facial expression habits. It is important to determine the timing of the procedure with the medical team after confirming the extent to which muscle movement has recovered.

5. Q&A

1) When do the effects of frown line Botox appear?

Botulinum toxin is not a procedure that makes wrinkles disappear immediately upon injection. As muscle movement gradually decreases after the procedure, the time it takes for the effects to appear may vary depending on the individual and the product used. On average, effects appear within 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure.

 

2) Can getting Botox between the eyebrows make my facial expressions look awkward?

Using an excessively high dose or affecting surrounding muscles can alter eyebrow or eyelid movements. Therefore, it is important to receive treatment at the appropriate location and dosage, taking into account individual muscle movements.

 

3) What precautions should I take after getting Botox between the eyebrows?
Temporary swelling, bruising, and pain may occur after the procedure, and it is recommended to avoid strongly stimulating the treated area for about 24 hours.

Frown lines can be affected not only by simple skin aging but also by facial expression habits such as furrowing and the repetitive movements of the muscles around the eyebrows. Therefore, it is important to undergo treatment after thoroughly checking the current depth of the wrinkles, the degree of muscle development, and the movements of the eyebrows and eyelids.
