Botox works very well for forehead wrinkles

Hisham Seify, MD, PhD answers: Does Botox work on horizontal forehead creases?

Hi. My name is Kym and I am 38 years old. I am desperate to find a non-invasive procedure to help reduce the lines going accross my forehead. I have four (two are very small) but am very depressed about how old I feel I look because of them. Does Botox work on this type of crease? Thanks!

Botox acts on the frontalis muscle and leads to its relaxation. This will make the horizontal lines (caused by the tension in this muscle) to improve or disappear.
