Botox for Frown Lines (Glabella)
Erase the vertical lines between your brows - commonly called 11 lines or frown lines - with precision Botox at Rani Beauty Clinic. Our physician-supervised injections target the corrugator and procerus muscles to soften deep glabellar creases, restoring a calm, approachable expression.
How Botox Works for the Glabella / 11 Lines
Your provider asks you to frown and furrow your brows to map the corrugator supercilii and procerus muscles - the muscles responsible for pulling the brows downward and inward. Using ultra-fine needles, Botox is precisely injected into 5 standard points across the glabellar complex. The neurotoxin relaxes these muscles, preventing the repeated contractions that create vertical lines between the brows. Full smoothing typically appears within 7-14 days.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are 11 lines and what causes them?
11 lines are the vertical creases that form between the eyebrows from repeated frowning, squinting, and concentrating. They are caused by the corrugator supercilii and procerus muscles pulling the skin inward and downward. Over time, these dynamic lines become static - visible even when your face is at rest.
How many units of Botox are needed for frown lines?
The FDA-approved dose for glabellar lines is 20 units, but your provider may adjust this based on your muscle strength and treatment goals. Some clients with very strong corrugator muscles may benefit from 25-30 units. Your provider determines the optimal dose during your consultation.
Is the glabella the most common area for Botox?
Yes. The glabella (frown line area) is one of the most commonly treated and most well-studied Botox treatment zones. It was among the first areas FDA-approved for cosmetic Botox use and has decades of safety data supporting its effectiveness.
How long do frown line Botox results last?
Frown line Botox typically lasts 3-4 months. With consistent treatments over time, many clients find their results begin to last longer as the muscles gradually weaken from reduced use. Regular maintenance helps prevent the lines from deepening.
