Wrinkles and fine lines are a natural part of the aging process. But if you’re an expressive talker, furrow the brows when concentrating, or have significant photodamage, forehead wrinkles are likely to develop at an earlier age. Repetitive muscle movements like squinting, smiling, raising your eyebrows, and frowning are the biggest causes of worry lines and horizontal creases along the forehead. Sun exposure, lifestyle habits, and genetic predisposition also play a role.
Whether you already have forehead wrinkles or want to prevent them from forming, Botox is a safe, non-surgical option offered at Dallas Dermatology Partners. FDA-approved in 2002, Botox is a neuromodulator that blocks nerve signals that tell muscles to contract. Botox procedures remain the most popular non-invasive cosmetic enhancement for a good reason.
There are few wrinkle-smoothing treatments more effective than forehead Botox. This injectable is ideal for dynamic wrinkles formed by muscle contraction, including the 11’s between the brows, horizontal creases, and crow’s feet along the corners of the eyes.
The best time to get Botox in the forehead is before static wrinkles appear. These are visible even when the face is at rest. The beauty of Botox is its dual preventative and corrective action. It softens and smooths existing wrinkles, and when injected at the initial stages of forehead lines, it can stop them from deepening.
Natural Forehead Botox Results
Dallas Dermatology Partners takes a conservative approach with Botox injections to give patients natural results, not a frozen appearance. Forehead muscles should not be completely paralyzed and have some movement after the treatment.
Botox Aftercare Tips
There is no downtime needed after Botox injections. Patients can resume normal activities, keeping these tips in mind for forehead Botox aftercare:
- No strenuous exercise until the next day
- Keep the head elevated for two hours
