Frown Lines

Frown lines, also known as ‘eleven’ lines (or ‘glabellar lines’) are the vertical creases that appear between your eyebrows. We make these creases when we knit our brows together while frowning and, as we age, our skin loses the ability to bounce back and the lines set in (particularly if frowning has become such a habit that we hardly know we’re doing it!). If you want to soften these lines, there’s a lot that can be done both with skincare and with treatments.

FAQ - FROWN LINES

Why do I have frown lines?

The forehead is expressive and we use it to communicate a great many emotions to the people around us: frowns, raised eyebrows, sympathetic looks, brows raised in delighted surprise – a whole range. The muscle movements involved in such facial expressions are known as ‘dynamic’ movements because they move the skin on top of them, forming creases where the skin folds to accommodate these movements. If you are always pulling your eyebrows together when you frown, creating the vertical ‘eleven’ lines between your eyebrows, these wrinkles start to set in.

These lines will become entrenched as you age because your skin becomes gradually less firm and springy due to the levels of collagen (the protein that keeps your skin firm) and elastin (the one that keeps your skin springy) drop as you get older. Then, when the skin is continually squashed into a crease, it loses its ability to bounce back.
