How To Treat Frown Lines
Up until a few years ago plastic surgeons only had one option when treating frown lines but today we have multiple weapons. Botox was the original treatment of choice when it came to wiping out frown lines around the eyes and forehead. Today we also have another product in Dysport.
Years of squinting, concentrating, or frowning can cause your skin to furrow and crease. As time passes, your skin becomes less elastic and those moderate to severe frown lines remain-even when your muscles aren’t contracting. Both of these medications can get real, noticeable results and still maintain your natural look. So, you can still frown or look surprised, but without the wrinkles and creases between your brows.
You should discuss your expectations with Dr. Parson and whether you have any health conditions or allergies that could interfere with your treatment. Effective treatment with either medication will require multiple injections into the affected areas. Although office visit times may vary, the procedure generally takes 10 to 20 minutes. Dr. Parson will determine the exact placement of each injection to get results that are right for you.
Both medications yield high satisfaction rates (over 95% since May 2011) among people surveyed. You should ask Dr. Parson about any precautions you should take after your treatment. Call Dr. Parson or get medical help right away if you have any concerns or side effects in any way. To maintain your improvements, you should discuss a treatment schedule with Dr. Parson. Whether using either product, you should wait at least 90 days between treatments.
