Frown Lines
Skin Care Treatment for Frown Lines
Explore why frown lines form and what options may help soften their look.
Frown lines can give the appearance of stress or fatigue. We offer personalised care to help soften these expression lines while prioritising your natural look.
Frown lines, those vertical lines that appear between the eyebrows, are a common concern for many clients. Often linked to repeated facial expressions, like squinting or concentrating, they can create a stern or tired appearance even when you’re feeling relaxed.
At The Cosmetic Studio Noosa, we take a personalised, health practitioner-led approach to help soften the appearance of these lines, supporting a natural and refreshed look.
Contributing Factors:
A variety of muscular and environmental influences contribute to the development and deepening of frown lines.
Muscle Movement: Repeated contraction of the corrugator and procerus muscles during expressions like frowning or squinting can create creasing.
Skin Ageing: As collagen and elastin levels decline, the skin becomes less resilient and more prone to permanent lines.
Sun Exposure: UV damage accelerates protein breakdown and skin thinning, making lines more prominent.
Dehydration: Lack of moisture can make fine lines appear deeper and reduce skin elasticity.
Lifestyle Factors: Smoking and stress can accelerate visible signs of ageing, including frown lines.
Facial Structure: Some individuals have naturally stronger or more active brow muscles, which may contribute to earlier or more prominent line development.
Over time, these factors can combine to etch deeper lines into the skin, even when the face is at rest.
Because each person’s facial anatomy, muscle activity, and skin condition are unique, a customised consultation is essential to determine which treatment options may be best suited to your needs.
Treatment Approach
Addressing frown lines involves understanding the underlying muscle activity and skin changes unique to your face. During your consultation, we’ll assess the depth and pattern of your lines, skin quality, and lifestyle factors. From there, a personalised treatment plan may be developed to help soften their appearance, support skin health, and promote a more relaxed brow.

Here are some FAQ's about Frown Lines. If you have any other questions, please give us a call or request a Consultation today.
What causes frown lines to form in the first place?
Repeated muscle contractions primarily cause frown lines during facial expressions. Over time, these movements can cause creases in the skin to become more defined.
Are frown lines permanent?
Initially, frown lines appear only during expression, but with age and repeated movement, they can become static, visible even when the face is at rest.
Can frown lines be softened without looking “frozen”?
Yes. Our approach focuses on subtle outcomes that retain your natural expressiveness while gently relaxing the appearance of lines.
Is it too late to treat deep frown lines?
Not at all. Even deeper lines can often be improved with a thoughtful, layered approach. Results may take time and consistency, but improvement is achievable.
How long do treatment effects last?
Treatment longevity varies depending on the method used and individual factors. Your practitioner will outline what to expect during your consultation.
