Treatment Explained
Botox for frown
lines and elevens
As we age and the elasticity of our skin naturally decreases, the lines associated with frowning can become deeper and more noticeable, sometimes giving us unwanted facial expression.
The vertical frown lines that appear between the eyebrows (the area of the skin called the glabella) are often referred to as ‘elevens’ due to their parallel nature.
Carefully targeted botox injections into the glabella reduces the muscle activity that causes frown lines and elevens.
Botox for frown lines and elevens is available in Harley Street and Colindale, London, at one of our luxurious, award-winning aesthetic clinics, led by Dr Kaywaan Khan.

treatment benefits

Reduction of frown lines and elevens
The glabella is the thick area of skin between the eyebrows, which can show the signs of ageing through the appearance of deeper lines caused by frowning.
Carefully targeted botox injections into the glabella inhibit the repetitive muscle activity associated with frowning. This results in a relaxing and softening of the glabella area, which has rejuvenating effect. -
Smooth out lines and folds
Botox injections for frown lines and elevens not only prevent the lines and folds from deepening, the effect is a smoothing out of the skin to give a more youthful appearance.
-
Treatment combination
Botox for frown lines and elevens is often used in conjunction with other hyaluronic acid-based treatments such as dermal fillers.
By plumping out the skin in targeted areas and filling any deeper lines, the rejuvenation of the forehead is further enhanced.

The science behind botox for
frown lines and elevens
The area of skin between our eyebrows, called the glabella, is thicker than the skin on other areas of the face. This means that the lines that form here from repetitive facial expression, such as frowning, can become deeper and more noticeable.
Depending on our natural facial muscularity and other lifestyle factors, these lines are more prominent in some patients.
When botulinum toxin, or botox, is carefully injected into the glabella, the muscle activity that causes frown lines is relaxed. This has a smoothing effect in the skin.
Dermal fillers are often used in conjunction with botox to further augment the rejuvenating effect. This is achieved by plumping out the skin and filling any deeper lines or folds.
