Answer: Vertical Dent in Forehead Thank you for your question. Your photos are very good for demonstrating the problem from your hairline down to the glabella area. Most all surgeons and physicians will and can use fillers The choices are multiple all the way from Restylane, Juviderm, and Voluma. In my practice, I use all the fillers. One more option is Fat Transfer. In my practice, I utilize fat in much the same way as filler with a long term result. You have beautiful shaped brows and an elegance to your upper face. This can be done with any of these as well as fat transfer. I have put this in creases in the forehead many times. The key with any injections is to do it smoothly with no visibility. The injector must take into account the layers of the forehead from the skin down to the bone. Good Luck Warmest Regards, Dr. Walton Montegut

Answer: Vertical line in forehead I have seen this in a scleroderma patient. I do think a derm consult is needed. If everything checks out ok. I would see a Plastic Surgeon for possibly placing an implant or dermal filler in this area.
