Botox for Bunny Lines
Botox cosmetic treatment is used to soften dynamic wrinkles — the lines caused by repeated muscle movements. As a neurotoxin, Botox relaxes the targeted muscles so they respond less forcefully to stimuli, allowing the overlying wrinkles to smooth and relax. Bunny lines are the squint lines that form across the bridge of the nose, named for the “bunny face” of scrunching the nose that creates them. Dr. Erez Dayan offers Botox for bunny lines at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.
Treating bunny lines well is all about precision — the nasalis muscle is small, and the injection must be placed exactly to relax it for a natural look without affecting the surrounding muscles. That precision is where Dr. Erez Dayan excels. A clinical investigator and key opinion leader for Allergan, the maker of Botox, and co-author of the textbook on facial anatomy and injectable safety, he is a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute. He completed the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program — serving as Chief Resident at Massachusetts General Hospital — before an elite aesthetic fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where he was one of only two surgeons selected. Botox for bunny lines is one of the practice’s Botox treatments.
How Botox Smooths Bunny Lines
Botox treatment to the nasalis muscle is the usual remedy for bunny lines. Because the area is small and surrounded by other muscles that shape your expression, the injection requires precise placement to relax the muscle correctly and maintain a natural appearance. Bunny lines are frequently treated alongside other dynamic wrinkles, such as glabellar lines (the “11s” between the brows) and crow’s feet, for balanced, full-face smoothing. Dr. Dayan can explain how Botox addresses these areas during a confidential consultation.
“Bunny lines are a great example of why placement matters so much — a millimeter in the wrong direction affects the smile. Precise, conservative dosing relaxes just the right muscle so the nose looks smooth and the expression stays completely natural.” — Dr. Erez Dayan
Eliminate Nasal Sidewall Wrinkles in Reno/Tahoe
Other lines along the nose can be softened with Botox as well. The same squinting action that creates bunny lines also produces nasal sidewall wrinkles, and Dr. Dayan can treat this area for a smoother, more youthful appearance. In fact, these treatments are often combined into one, since the same muscles create both types of wrinkles.
