Lai Ying (Noreen) LokNMW0002111411Frown Wrinkles
Vertical lines between the eyebrows, often called “the elevens”, are common reasons people book a consultation with us. They form through repeated expressions such as concentrating, squinting or frowning, and can become more visible over time. If this is a concern for you, please book a consultation with our team.

Overview
What are frown wrinkles?
Frown wrinkles are the vertical lines that appear between the eyebrows. They are sometimes called glabellar lines or “the elevens”. They are often most visible when frowning, but can remain visible when the face is relaxed.
What causes them?
They form through repeated movement of the muscles between the brows, along with the gradual loss of collagen and elasticity in the skin. Sun exposure, genetics and habitual expressions can all play a part, and many people are surprised to learn how much of it is simply how they naturally express themselves.
Why people come to us
Reasons people seek consultations
Lines between the brows can change how a person's expression is read by others, which is often what prompts people to ask about them. A consultation is a chance to talk it through without any pressure to proceed. Common reasons include:
- Looking tired, stern or concerned when feeling neither
- Lines visible when the face is relaxed
- Lines that feel more noticeable than they used to
- Wanting to understand available options and what is realistic
- Wanting advice on suitability before making any decision
Next steps
How should you manage frown wrinkles?
Each person's expressions and skin are different, so the right approach varies from one person to the next. We recommend booking a consultation to talk it through. Our 45-minute consultations are unhurried, so you can ask as many questions as you need. During your consultation we can explain the different treatments that may be able to address frown lines. Our team is made up of health professionals who will help you understand your options.
