Bunny lines—the fine wrinkles that appear on the sides of the nose when you smile—may be small, but they can subtly age your face and distract from your natural expression. Fortunately, there’s a highly effective, non-surgical way to treat them right here in Atlanta. At The K Spa in Buckhead, we specialize in precise, physician-supervised Botox treatments that gently relax the muscles responsible for bunny lines. Led by acclaimed dual board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Benjamin C. Stong, our practice is one of the few med spas in the Atlanta area where every cosmetic injectable is administered with surgical-level care and personalized planning.
I just moved to the area and my first visit was great! The team was so lovely and felt so welcoming. DR Stong was brilliant and I couldn’t believe how fast he was. This was my first time with botox and he treated me for a gummy smile. It hasn’t even been a week yet and I can already see the difference!! I can’t wait for my next appointment!

What Are Bunny Lines—and Why Do They Matter?
Bunny lines typically develop over time from repeated facial expressions—smiling, laughing, and squinting. These diagonal creases, located on the upper sides of the nose, are often more noticeable with age as skin elasticity decreases. While common, they can affect how your overall appearance is perceived, especially in high-definition photos and professional settings.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Atlanta ranks among the top metro areas in the Southeast for non-surgical aesthetic treatments. Increasingly, local patients are seeking subtle, preventative procedures to maintain a refreshed look—without going under the knife.

How The K Spa Treats Bunny Lines with Botox
At The K Spa, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all aesthetic care. Treating bunny lines successfully requires expert knowledge of facial anatomy and precision technique.
Using ultra-fine microneedles, Dr. Stong or a medically trained aesthetic provider places small amounts of Botox into the nasalis muscle on either side of the nose. This muscle causes the skin to wrinkle when it contracts. By carefully targeting it, we soften the appearance of bunny lines—without affecting your ability to smile or express yourself naturally.

- Artful technique: Every injection is placed to preserve natural facial harmony
