Frown Line Management Sydney

FORWN LINE TREATMENT

Frown lines emerge from repetitive muscle contractions between the eyebrows, stress and form part of the aging process.

We offer two main frown line treatments:

• Treatment option one: We use products that block neurotransmittiers, minimising the contraction of eye muscles. This focused treatment approach visibly diminishes the ‘eleven lines’ between the brows.
• Treatment option two: We inject high-quality volumising products into the frown lines to soften the appearance of the lines and improve skin texture.

It is important to note that while there can be immediate improvement in the frown static lines (lines that are present at rest), with treatment option 2, several non-surgical treatments will be required to significantly reduce frown lines.

HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?

The treatment times varies depending on the treatment being provided. However, we do recommend allowing a minimum of 45 minutes for your appointment, which will include an in-depth consultation and treatment option one. Treatment option is likely to require a minimum of one hour plus pre-treatment numbing.

DOES IT HURT?

Before your treatment, a topical anaesthetic gel will be applied to alleviate discomfort.
