One of the most common questions we hear at Klinika is: “Where can anti-wrinkle injections actually be used?” While most people associate wrinkle relaxers with forehead lines, the truth is that these treatments are versatile, precise, and capable of softening a wide range of expression lines.
In this post, we’ll walk you through the most common — and a few lesser-known — treatment areas that can be safely and effectively addressed with wrinkle relaxers.
The Forehead
Let’s start with the classic.
Horizontal forehead lines are typically caused by raising the eyebrows. These lines tend to deepen over time due to repeated movement and thinning skin.
Treatment approach:
- Relax the frontalis muscle without compromising your ability to express
- Preserve some natural motion to avoid heaviness or a “frozen” look
- Combine with frown line treatment for a balanced brow
The Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines)
These are the “11” lines that form between your eyebrows when you frown or concentrate. They can create a tired, stern, or even angry appearance — even when you’re relaxed.
Treatment approach:
- Gently relax the corrugator and procerus muscles
- Reduce tension in the central brow area
- Lift and open the eye region subtly
This area is often the first one clients treat — with noticeable results that can make you look refreshed without obvious changes.
Crow’s Feet
Also known as lateral canthal lines, crow’s feet develop at the outer corners of the eyes due to smiling, squinting, or sun exposure.
Treatment approach:
- Soften the lines while preserving your ability to smile naturally
- Use conservative dosing to avoid flattening cheek movement
- Combine with skin treatments for added smoothness
Klinika’s practitioners are trained to achieve a softening — not a stiffening — around the eyes, so you never lose your sparkle.
Bunny Lines
These are the fine lines that appear across the nose when scrunching or smiling. While not always bothersome, some clients find them distracting when other areas have been smoothed.
Treatment approach:
- Small injections placed carefully on either side of the nasal bridge
- Smooths the transition zone between the glabella and midface
- Ideal as a complementary touch for other treatments
Lip Lines and Mouth Movement
While volume restoration treatments are commonly used in the lips, wrinkle relaxers can help with fine lines and muscle movement above the lip.
Treatment options include:
- Softening vertical “smoker’s lines”
- Adjusting excessive upper lip elevation (“gummy smile”)
- Treating mouth frown or downward pull
These treatments require expert precision and lower doses — something Klinika prides itself on delivering.
Chin Dimpling and Pebble Chin
Some people develop a dimpling or puckering in the chin caused by the mentalis muscle. This can contribute to an uneven lower face appearance.
Treatment approach:
- Relaxing the muscle to smooth the skin over the chin
- Often used alongside jawline refinement if needed
Jaw Clenching and Facial Slimming
This is a dual-purpose treatment. Overactive masseter muscles from jaw clenching or grinding can contribute to facial tension and a wider jaw appearance.
Benefits of treatment:
- May assist with jaw tension from clenching or grinding
- Softens a bulky lower face for a more oval facial contour
- Can enhance comfort while supporting aesthetic goals
Brow Lift (Chemical Brow Lift)
A subtle lift of the outer brow can be achieved by treating the muscles that pull the brows downward.
Ideal for:
- Clients with naturally hooded lids
- Creating a more open, refreshed eye area
- Enhancing symmetry

- Perform a full facial assessment first
