Anti-Wrinkle Injections for Frown Lines
The procedure for treating frown lines involves the precise injection of a muscle-relaxing solution into the targeted areas between the eyebrows using a fine needle. This relaxes the underlying muscles, reducing their ability to contract and form deep lines. The treatment typically takes about 15–30 minutes and is minimally uncomfortable. Some redness or slight swelling at the injection sites may occur but usually resolves within a few hours. Initial results often appear within 3–7 days, with the full effect visible after about 2 weeks. Results can last anywhere from 3–6 months, depending on individual factors and lifestyle.
