Forehead wrinkles, also known as a "forehead row" are the wrinkles that stretch horizontally across the forehead.
Factors that contribute to formation of forehead wrinkles include ageing, genetics, hormones and environmental factors. Forehead wrinkles are usually the first wrinkles to appear. Initially they appear as dynamic wrinkles (wrinkles caused by contraction of the frontalis muscles during facial expression). If left untreated these can become static wrinkles (lines present even without expression).
At Bedford Skin Clinic we offer Botox as the first line treatment for forehead wrinkles and for the majority of individuals is the only treatment necessary. However, for deep static lines (lines present without facial expression), a combination of Botox and dermal filler can produce the best results.
We are sorry to say we do not treat the Forehead area on its own, this area must be treated in conjunction with the Frown area in order to avoid any complications. This will be considered 2 areas (Frown plus Forehead).
