How DAXXIFY® Injections Can Help Improve Severe Frown Lines
&srotate=0)
Squinting, frowning — and even something as innocent as smiling — can lead to unwanted facial lines and wrinkles that start to linger long after your face has returned to rest. These expressive lines are known as dynamic wrinkles, which can age a person well beyond their years, leading many men and women to turn to cosmetic injectables. More specifically, injectable wrinkle relaxers have become widely popular among people looking to smooth away stubborn signs of facial aging associated with expressive muscle movements like frown lines, Crow's feet, and others.
At Adean Kingston, M.D., PLLC, Dallas, TX board-certified dermatologist and aesthetic specialist Dr. Adean Kingston offers a full suite of cosmetic injections, including DAXXIFY, to help give patients back the smoother, younger, more attractive facial appearance they deserve. Keep reading to learn more about how DAXXIFY works for frown lines in particular and how severe frown lines can respond to DAXXIFY injections.
Where are frown lines?
If you're like many people, you may assume that frown lines are associated with the mouth. Actually, frown lines generally refer to the vertical lines and wrinkles that appear between the eyebrows — an area known as the glabella — when you frown or furrow your brow. In younger people, frown lines come and go as their expression changes. With age and repetitive muscle movements over many years, however, glabellar lines start to become visible even with the face at rest, which may make a person look angry, worn out, or simply older than they are.
Does DAXXIFY work for frown lines?
DAXXIFY wrinkle-relaxing injections are specifically designed to target dynamic lines like frown lines. When injected into the muscle that is used to make certain facial expressions — like frowning and squinting — DAXXIFY triggers a temporary paralysis of the muscle. This forces the surface lines and wrinkles to relax as well for a smoother, younger new look.
What kinds of wrinkles does DAXXIFY work for other than frown lines?
While frown lines are among the most frustrating facial wrinkles for many people, they are certainly not the only types of wrinkles DAXXIFY treats. Some of the most popular concerns that can be addressed with DAXXIFY injections include:
- Frown lines (glabellar lines or 1, 11, or 111 lines)
- Crow's feet
- Lip lines
- Forehead lines
How long does DAXXIFY last?
Because every person's muscle strength, skin type, and other variables are unique, the longevity of DAXXIFY wrinkle relaxers can vary slightly from patient to patient. On average, however, most men and women can expect DAXXIFY for glabella lines to last up to six months before a repeat treatment may be needed. Compared with other popular wrinkle relaxers, which typically last about 3 – 4 months, the longer-lasting effects of DAXXIFY continue to boost its popularity. If you have questions about which type of cosmetic injectable is right for you, don't hesitate to ask Dr. Kingston or one of our knowledgeable aesthetic specialists to learn more.
