What is glabellar lines Botox?
The glabella is the smooth area of skin between the eyebrows and above the nose. Two muscle groups act here: the corrugators, which pull the brows together, and the procerus, which pulls the inner brows down and creates horizontal lines across the bridge of the nose. Over years, their repeated movement leaves vertical "11 lines" and sometimes a crease at the top of the nose.
Glabellar lines Botox places precise, small doses of botulinum toxin into these muscles. Because each person's muscle pattern differs, some people form two parallel lines, others a single deep line or a V shape. The doctor watches you frown and adjusts the injection points to your pattern. It is part of our Botox range and is the same treatment we describe as frown lines Botox.
Who is a good candidate?
- Vertical lines or a crease between the eyebrows
- Horizontal lines across the top of the nose
- A habit of frowning when reading or concentrating
- People who want to prevent lines from deepening
People who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an infection in the area, or have certain neuromuscular disorders should not have this treatment. Very deep lines that are etched in at rest may need a combined plan with skin quality treatments. The doctor will explain what is realistic for your skin at consultation.

What happens after treatment?
You can return to normal activities straight away. The muscles start to relax within a few days and the full effect is usually seen at around two weeks, when the doctor can make a small adjustment if needed. The brow should look smoother and more relaxed while you can still move it naturally. Effects typically last around 3–4 months and then fade gradually. Side effects are usually mild, such as small bruises or a brief headache; a heavy brow or eyelid is uncommon and temporary when it occurs.
