you are lucky then because i truly do not advocate doing that. i have seen two major problems (which i reported in my first textbook, Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation, that came out about 5 years ago.):
1. return of the muscle after 1 to 5 years.
2 real problems with contour deformities and nerve issues. however, if you got lucky, then you can save quite a bit on botox in that area.
also, most often a corrugator snip is done at the same time as a browlift, as you know that i do not believe in browlifts anymore.
