I had a really good experience at Jax Dermatology and Cosmetic Surgery. I went in because I was having issues with my skin and hair, and to be honest, those kinds of things can make you feel a little self-conscious. From the moment I walked in, Morgan at the front desk made me feel welcome. She was kind, friendly, and easy to talk to. She helped me relax and made me feel comfortable instead of embarrassed about why I was there. A smile and a little kindness can go a long way, and Morgan definitely made a difference in my visit. Thank you for making me feel at ease. I truly appreciate it!

10/10 From the front desk staff to the APRN. Michelle is so thorough in answering your questions about dermatology and skin issues and so genuinely kind. The practice was on time, also not also a norm in medical care, but so far I've been 11 for 11 with them in that regard. I highly recommend this practice for dermatologic needs and WEAR SUNSCREEN, y'all! 🌞
Response from the owner:We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!

What Are Frown Lines?

Wrinkles fall into two categories: dynamic and static. Dynamic wrinkles appear when facial muscles contract or are in motion, while static wrinkles are visible when facial muscles are at rest.

When our skin is young and healthy, it creases when we use our facial muscles but returns to normal when in its resting position. However, as we age, our skin takes longer to spring back, eventually leading to static or permanent wrinkling.

Frown lines typically start to become noticeable in our 30s. Initially, frown lines only show when we furrow our brow, but these lines start to show over time even when we are not frowning. Frown lines are caused by repeated movement, sun damage, smoking, normal aging, and genetics.

What Are Forehead Wrinkles?

Also called worry lines or forehead lines, forehead wrinkles are horizontal lines that span the length of the forehead above the eyebrows. They typically become more pronounced when a person makes a facial expression that raises the brow. Over time, these wrinkles become static and remain without facial movement. They are caused by repeated movement, sun damage, normal aging, and genetics.

Treatment Options for Your Wrinkles

Whether you have frown lines or forehead wrinkles, several treatment options are available to refresh and rejuvenate your skin. The best treatment for frown lines is neuromodulators such as Botox and Dysport. Botox and Dysport are FDA-approved to treat dynamic wrinkles such as frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet. Botox and Dysport temporarily inhibit muscle movement, preventing wrinkles and fine lines from forming. Dynamic wrinkles are lines caused by muscle movement, such as frowning, raising your forehead, or smiling.
