Botox 11 Lines Before and After

What Are 11 Lines?

11 lines are a name given to the lines that form between the eyebrows. Also called frown lines, 11 lines form due to a number of reasons that include years of movement of the face, growing age, stress, sunlight exposure, smoking and genetics. Frown lines that often produce a face that is often sad or angry and not show the actual facial appearance of the person. 

One of the fastest and easiest ways to completely get rid of 11 lines is by using Botox. Botox is used to relax the muscles around the 11 lines and relieve you with any lines when you have facial expressions. By getting rid of 11 lines with Botox, you will also enjoy some side benefits that Botox holds such as getting rid of migraines, alleviates the constant use of nerves on the face, and makes you look younger.

How Botox Works on 11 lines?

After the Botox is injected, the neurotoxin travels to a desired muscle area and blocks the necessary nerves from contracting the face. Your brain may still send signals through the nerves for your muscles to move, but the Botox blocks the firing of the nerves to the muscles. 

So how does the blocking not affect the feeling you would get when they numb you at the dentist? Because the body has two different types of nerves in the body, where Botox only blocks the synapses of the motion and not the loss of feeling you would get through numbness.

How much is Botox for 11 lines?

Depending on the number of units, Botox for 11 lines can consist of 15-40 units of injection with each injection ranging from $8-$15 per unit depending on location and physician. These Botox injections can range from a total price of $200 to $1,500 for 11 lines. A doctor administering the injections will recommend the precise dosage needed. Sometimes, Botox alone can’t fully treat 11 lines and so doctors may recommend other dermal fillers. Beside the cost of the Botox injection, some clinics charge for the administered time and if on-call to your place, another fee may be added. Maintaining treatment may also be necessary, typically twice a year, since Botox may only last in your system for approximately 4 months.

How long does Botox take to work on 11 lines?

On average, it can take Botox 4-7 days to show results on 11 lines as the neurotoxin gets into the right places to block signals from the nerves to the muscles. To get faster results, you may do facial exercises for the neurotoxin to travel faster.
