How Do I Get Rid of the Horizontal Crease Between my Eyes?
At the very top of my nose, between my eyes is a crease that appears as if my forehead is slipping down, which it probably is because when I put on a tight headband it lifts and softens. Would botox help with this?

Getting Rid of Horizontal Crease Between the Eyes With Botox

Most of the time, wrinkles between the eyes are vertical (i.e. frown lines). However prominent horizontal lines are likely to be the result of excess activity with the proceris muscle. Injecting Botox in this area should help.

Botox or Dysport or a hyaluronic acid are good options to treat crease between the eyes.
The horizontal crease between the eyes is often caused my moving the facial muscles underneath the surface of the skin. A neurotoxin such as Botox or Dysport would be the best treatment for this area. These medications are injected into the muscles to relax the muscles which improves the wrinkle. If botulinum toxin can’t be used for some reason, or isn’t enough in a particularly deep crease, use of Restylane or Juvederm there would also be appropriate. If no...

Botox and the horizontal line between the brows
Greetingss~
Without seeing you face to face, or a photo, it's difficult to say with any certainty if Botox will help address the crease that you're concerned about. In some cases, when the procerus muscle between the brows is too strong, or always slightly contracted, it can cause the crease you describe and sometimes it may be a combination of that muscle and gravity and aging. Filler can help in some cases. For the best answer for your particular concern...

Botox first; Fillers or CO2 resurfacing options
Based on your description, and without the benefit of actually seeing the problem, Botox should be your first step. Botox is very good for reducing lines at rest and motion in this area.
You may need a filler as well, such as Juvederm, if Botox alone is not completely effective.
To permanently decrease or eliminate persistent lines at rest, a resurfacing procedure, such as fractionated CO2 (Matrix CO2 etc), is your best option.

Improving crease between the eyes
I would probably try a little bit of botox combined with a filler such as juvederm or restylane to improve this crease. Have an experienced dermatologist treat you to minimize any potential problems.

Getting rid of wrinkles between the eyes
Most likely, Botox will help reduce the appearance of the creases between your eyes. You should consult in person with a facial plastic surgeon to make sure Botox is the correct treatment. If you have more severe sagging, other treatments might be better.

Botox for horizontal nasal crease
When the forehead appears to be hanging down as a shelf over the crease, Botox often helps lift the glabella and the line improves. It might be prudent to not treat the upper forehead the same day and ensure that you get a good result because treatment of the upper forehead can cause it to lower and fight against the good result that the botox glabellar treatment provides.

Botox for horizontal frown line.
Botox to the glabellar complex will definitely help solve the problem. What you have described ("very top of my nose, between my eyes is a crease that appears as if my forehead is slipping down, when I put on a tight headband it lifts and softens") is a symptom of an over active procerus along with or without hyper-tonic corrugators. The procerus and corrugators are medial brow depressors, which means their normal action is to pull the inner end of your eyebrow inwards...

Botox and horizontal nasal crease
Botox will soften wrinkles caused by muscle contraction, but not drooping skin. If the crease is present when your face is totally relaxed, it may not change much with Botox. It may be worth trying filler first, but this will be temporary. The long term solution, as mentioned, would be a forehead lift. The long-term benefit to this is that the procerus and corrugator muscles can be partially of totally disabled during surgery, permanently lessening any further crease...

Botox Brow Lift to treat Drooping Forehead Crease on Nose
In my practice, I routinely treat the glabella and forehead together. At my practice, I sometimes perform a Botox Brow lift to treat heaviness in the brow area. When Botox or Dysport are injected, it relaxes those musles so lines on the face become less prominent, thereby lifting the brow and relieving the crease. Frown lines are caused by the corrugator and procerus muscles. The horizontal forehead lines are caused by frontalis muscle. Since, the glabellar area involves different muscles...

How Do I Get Rid of the Horizontal Crease Between my Eyes?
Botox is great for relaxing overactive muscles. If this problem is due to an overactive muscle, then it should help. If it is due to a very droopy forehead, it probably won't work. You should get a consultation from an injector with lots of experience in this area.

Horizontal wrinkle on nose between eyes.
Horizontal wrinkles on nose between eyes are usually caused by the procerus muscle. Botox can help. The first step is an in person evaluation by someone who is familiar with treating lines in this area.

How Do I Get Rid of the Horizontal Crease Between my Eyes?
These wrinkles are caused by an over active nasal muscle in that area and respond well to Botox, Dysport or Xeomin injections.

Crease on nose!
Great question! First, you want to determine which facial expression results in the line across your nose -Look in the mirror frown or scowl (which brings brow in) and then wrinkle your nose ...Are you able to identify the movement which is creating the crease? If it is the scowl this is your corrugator muscle, the muscle between your eyebrows and or if it is the scowl and the "wrinkling " of your nose, this is most likely your corrugator muscle and your nasalis muscle....

A lift may work best.
That crease is difficult to correct- a subtle crease will improve with Juvederm. More significant crease may respond to a forehead lift.
