Botox for Bunny Lines in Creve Coeur, MO
Scrunch your nose when you laugh and you might notice small wrinkles fanning across the bridge and down the sides. Those are bunny lines. At 4Ever Young STL MedSpa in Creve Coeur, MO, a few units of Botox soften them so your nose looks smooth even when you smile. If you have been searching for bunny line Botox in Creve Coeur or a med spa near St. Louis, this is a quick, subtle refresh with no surgery.
Bunny lines come from the nasalis muscle scrunching the same way over and over. Given enough years, the creases start to linger even when your face is at rest, and they can make you look tense. Relaxing that muscle smooths the lines while leaving the rest of your expression alone.
Removing Bunny Lines and Nasal Sidewall Wrinkles
Bunny lines and the wrinkles along the sidewall of the nose both come from the nasalis muscle. We place a small, precise amount of Botox into that muscle to quiet the movement that creases the skin, while keeping your smile natural. Because this area sits close to the muscles that shape your whole midface, placement takes a careful hand, which is why our founder and lead injector, Alina McCann, MSN, APRN, AGNP, does it herself.
The treatment takes about 15 minutes. You will start to see the lines soften within a few days, with the full effect by two weeks, and it usually holds for three to four months. There is little downtime. You might have slight redness or a small bruise at the injection sites that fades quickly. Bunny line Botox pairs naturally with treating the frown lines and other upper-face wrinkles for a smooth, rested look.
Bunny Line Botox and the Rest of Your Face
Bunny lines rarely show up on their own. They often appear alongside frown lines between the brows and other upper-face wrinkles, because the same expressions drive them. Treating them together gives a smoother, more balanced result than chasing one line at a time.
For deeper creases that linger at rest, or for lost volume, we sometimes pair Botox with a dermal filler. Botox relaxes the muscle, and filler restores what time has taken. At your consultation we look at your whole face and build a plan around it. You can see how the two work together on our wrinkle treatment page.
