Introduction to Frown Lines

Expression of anger is controlled by a few muscles present between the eyebrows. These are the Corrugator muscles on the sides and Procerus muscle in the center, these cause the middle vertical wrinkles which make us look angry or annoyed.

Unwanted activity of these muscle causes wrinkles or permanent lines on the forehead and in between the eyebrows which makes one look angry and annoyed although they may not be angry at all. A smooth forehead conveys calm and a composed personality.

Types of wrinkles

Dynamic: These appear only when the muscle moves to express an emotion. These are treated with Botox anti-wrinkle injection treatment which prevents the muscles from contracting.

Static: These are permanent wrinkles that stay even at rest and are exaggerated when the muscle moves to express an emotion. These are treated by a multi-modality approach. Botox anti-wrinkle therapy is instituted to prevent muscle contraction which prevents exaggeration. and Fillers injections or Fat Fill Procedure is done to correct volume loss and smooth out the forehead skin.
