Bunny Lines

The name "bunny lines" might sound endearing, but these fine diagonal wrinkles on either side of the nose are anything but cute. You can spot them when you frown or scrunch your nose, creating visible creases along the bridge. These lines tend to linger even after the expression fades, making them a frustrating sign of ageing or a side effect of specific cosmetic treatments.

Bunny Lines Treatment: How to Smooth Out Those Unwanted Wrinkles

What Causes Bunny Lines?

Bunny lines are dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements like frowning or nose wrinkling. Some individuals even wrinkle their noses when they laugh, contributing to the formation of these lines over time. In some cases, bunny lines become more prominent after receiving botulinum toxin treatments between the eyebrows, as the muscles around the nose compensate for the relaxed forehead muscles. This is why seeking treatment from an experienced injector who can tailor the approach to prevent this side effect is essential.

Why Professional Treatment Matters

Treating bunny lines requires precision. Skilled injectors typically use a small amount of botulinum toxin on either side of the nose to relax the overworked muscles. Results from this treatment become noticeable within two weeks and last up to three months.

At Skin Renewal, our doctor-led approach ensures that medical professionals who understand facial anatomy carefully plan and execute every treatment. During your consultation, our doctors will assess your facial structure, muscle movement, and skin condition to recommend the most effective treatment for your bunny lines. We also explore whether combining treatments could yield better, more natural-looking results.

Combination Treatment Solutions for Bunny Lines

At Skin Renewal, we often combine treatments to deliver comprehensive results. For bunny lines, pairing neurotoxins with dermal fillers or skin-strengthening procedures enhances your skin's appearance and health. By addressing multiple aspects of skin ageing, we ensure that your results are more balanced and long-lasting.

Alternative Treatments for the Nose Area

Beyond treating bunny lines with botulinum toxin, other treatments can enhance the appearance of your nose. For example, a non-surgical nose reshaping using monofilament threads or dermal fillers can make your nose appear more slender and reduce its ability to wrinkle. These techniques reshape the nasal tip and smooth lines and minimise the appearance of bunny lines for a more refined look.

A comprehensive skincare routine focusing on skin elasticity, strength, and firmness is essential to prevent premature ageing. At Skin Renewal, we recommend monthly maintenance treatments to support your skin's health. Combining high-quality skincare products with regular professional treatments, we help preserve the skin's "snap-back" ability, making wrinkles like bunny lines less likely to form.

Skin Renewal's Doctor-Led Approach to Bunny Lines Treatment

At Skin Renewal, every aesthetic treatment should begin with a thorough consultation led by a medical professional. Our doctors assess your skin condition, muscle activity, and aesthetic goals to tailor a personalised treatment plan. For bunny lines, this may involve a combination of botulinum toxin, dermal fillers, and skin-strengthening therapies to ensure natural, balanced results. We are committed to delivering treatments that are both safe and effective, with a focus on long-term skin health.

frequently asked
questions

Are treatments for bunny lines available at all Skin Renewal clinics?
How can you get rid of bunny lines?

Treatments such as botulinum toxin (Botox) are highly effective in reducing or eliminating nose wrinkles, often called bunny lines. A small amount of Botox is injected on either side of the nose to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles when you frown or scrunch up your nose. For deeper wrinkles, dermal fillers or thread lifts may also be used to smooth the skin and enhance the overall contour of your nose.

Do bunny lines go away?

Nose creases, or bunny lines, may not go away entirely on their own, mainly because they are often caused by repeated facial movements or ageing. However, Botox or dermal fillers can significantly reduce these lines, relaxing the muscles or plumping up the skin.

What do wrinkles around the nose mean?

Wrinkles around the nose, commonly known as bunny lines, are often caused by repeated facial expressions like frowning, scrunching the nose, or laughing. These dynamic wrinkles typically appear over time as the skin loses its elasticity with age. Consider treatments such as Botox, dermal fillers, or thread lifts to address these lines for more comprehensive results.

What an amazing experience. I was so nervous as this was my first time getting any procedure done and I have very thin and sensitive skin and the staff were so friendly and welcoming and calming and gave me all the reassurance I needed for the botox procedure and answered all my questions and concerns in the weeks and months even leading up to it, during the session as well as after the session. Dr Merle is absolutely amazing. She was so professional, kind, compassionate and knowledgeable and was so soothing with every minute that passed during the procedure. Not to mention the whole aura look and feel of the place feels like you are in heaven. Today is day 1 so look forward to seeing the results and hoping for the best but I know Skin Renewal will guide me and be my side every step of the way in the weeks to come. Highly recommend to anyone!
