They all had a smooth eyebrow shape, no abnormal movement of the eyebrows, and no tissue depression during relaxation or frowning. At 12 months after surgery, the overall patient satisfaction with the treatment was 100%, indicating satisfactory results.Conclusion: Treating severe frown lines with a small incision of corrugator combined with autologous block fat transplantation is more effective than traditional treatment, maintains stable and long-term satisfaction, and is associated with less postoperative complications; therefore, this technique should be promoted for treating severe frown lines.Keywords: corrugator supercilii muscle, autologous lumpy fat, frown lines, plastic surgery
