Bunny Lines

About bunny lines at HoneMD

Bunny lines are the fine diagonal wrinkles that appear on either side of the nose when you smile, laugh, or scrunch your face. They're caused by repeated contraction of the nasalis muscle - the thin muscle that runs along the bridge and sides of your nose.

For many clients, bunny lines become more noticeable after treating the forehead or frown lines with neurotoxin. When the frontalis and corrugator are relaxed, the nasalis often compensates by working harder - making existing bunny lines more prominent or causing new ones to appear. This is one of the most common reasons clients ask about bunny lines treatment.

At HoneMD - serving Torrance and Huntington Beach - we treat bunny lines with a small, precisely placed dose of neurotoxin to relax the nasalis and smooth the skin along the nose bridge. The treatment takes under 10 minutes, requires no downtime, and produces results that look natural even mid-laugh.

Who this treatment is for

• You notice diagonal creases on the sides of your nose when you smile or scrunch
• Your bunny lines have become more visible after starting forehead or glabella tox
• You want to refine and balance the upper face as part of a complete neurotoxin plan
• You're looking for a subtle correction that no one else will notice - they'll just think you look rested

Most bunny lines clients are already getting tox in other areas and want to address this last remaining area of movement. It's one of the most requested add-on treatments at HoneMD.

The HoneMD approach

Bunny lines sit in a small anatomical zone where millimeters matter. The nasalis borders the levator labii (which controls your upper lip) and the procerus (which controls frown lines). Over-treating or placing product too low can affect your smile. Our nurse-practitioner injectors treat this area daily and know exactly where to stay.

Pricing

From $99 for new clients. Most clients need 4–8 units total (2–4 per side). Often added to a regular forehead/frown lines/crow's feet appointment at a bundled rate. Know the plan. Know the price.

FAQ

What are bunny lines?
Fine diagonal wrinkles that form on either side of the nose when you scrunch, laugh, or smile, caused by nasalis contraction. Over time these lines can become visible at rest.

Why do bunny lines get worse after tox?
When you treat the forehead or frown lines, surrounding muscles including the nasalis sometimes compensate by working harder. Adding a small dose to the nasalis during your regular forehead treatment prevents this.

How many units do bunny lines need?
Most clients need 4–8 units total (2–4 per side).

Does it hurt?
A light pinch that lasts a second. Fine needles, small injection sites, no numbing needed. Entire treatment takes under 5 minutes.

How long do results last?
3–4 months. Schedule alongside forehead and frown line maintenance for consistent, balanced results.

Can I combine with other areas?
Yes - most clients add bunny lines to their regular forehead, frown lines, or crow's feet appointment. Treating multiple areas in one visit ensures balanced muscle relaxation across the upper face.
