Forehead wrinkles appear horizontally across the forehead. These can be dynamic (only present when the ‘frontalis’ facial muscle is contracted i.e. during facial expression) or static (present even when the face is at rest).
Forehead wrinkles are the earliest lines to appear. Factors contributing to the development of the forehead lines include the age-related changes, UV skin damage, smoking and genetic factors.
Botox® injection is effective in reducing/eliminating the forehead lines. Best results with Botox® are achieved when treating dynamic lines. For clients who are affected by static due to contraction of ‘’Frontalis muscle’’. For more deeper lines, Botox® in combination with dermal filler can produce a more satisfactory result. It is also possible to improve forehead wrinkles without the use of Botox®/Dermal fillers. Such treatments include microneeedling (Dermapen and Dermaroller), chemical peels, microdermabrasion and laser treatments.
