What is the Woori glabellar nerve block procedure?

It blocks the glabellar nerve, the nerve that causes glabellar lines.

This procedure uses a special high-frequency RF system to block the root nerve of glabellar wrinkles through a small needle-sized hole.
Experience dramatic results with a simple procedure on the glabellar wrinkles that are difficult to get rid of with cosmetics or petit plastic surgery.

Core of the Glabellar Nerve Block Procedure

Muscles are controlled by nerves, which means they cannot move if the nerves are blocked. As time passes, the muscles will atrophy and become smaller.
The caudal muscle is located in the glabellar and plays the role of lowering the eyebrows. When developed, wrinkles form on the glabellar and forehead.
The key is to block excessive and repetitive activities of the caudal muscle.
