Just enquiring if it will actually help or are my frown lines to deep?

Botox is the product used to correct forehead wrinkles. Botox is used to treat existing wrinkles or prevent wrinkles. An experienced injector will determine the the number of units to be injected your first time. Typically, you get re-injected every 3-6 months, but you are never back to your baseline as of pre-treatment. With every treatment, the appearance of your lines and wrinkles will get less noticeable.

Looking at your photo, it appears you are a great candidate for treatment with Botox. I would recommend seeking the advice of a board certified and experienced facial plastic surgeon, plastic surgeon, or dermatologist. Each is a fantastic choice.

Hi Bubblebutton,Although the lines are deep, repeated treatments with botox should help to smooth them out. It may not be completely smooth with the first treatment, but the relaxation of the eyebrow raising muscle will soften the horizontal lines. As the muscle gets weaker and you raise your eyebrows less, then the forehead will get smoother. Since our skin is alive, if you don't raise your eyebrows much with the botox, the skin can heal and the line will continue to improve.Having said that, Botox to your forehead will likely drop your eyebrows further than they are currently. Some people are born with naturally low eyebrows. In order to have the eyebrows in a slightly higher position, some people will subconciously hold their eyebrow up in a position which happens to show a little more eyelid than when their eyebrows are completely relaxed. You don't have a photo of your forehead completely relaxed, but I would be curious to see what your eyelids would look like as well as your eyebrow level.It is difficult to say whether or not you would like the botox, since you may like the smoothing effect, but not like the inability to raise your eyebrows. If this ends up being the problem, then you may be a good candidate for an endoscopic browlift.This can help reset your resting eyebrow position to where you are hold your eyebrows in this photo, but keep the eyebrows at this position without needing contract your forehead. Please consult with a board certified facial plastic, occuloplastic or general plastic surgeon for a face to face evaluation. For botox only, a dermatologist will be more than qualified to offer that treatment.Best,Dr. Yang

Thank you for your question and a photograph.The answer depends on your age, skin memory and how long the furrows have been there.In general, Botox should help improve them if not completely make them go away. To be sure, see two or more board certified and experienced plastic surgeons in your area for a full and complete evaluation. I hope this helps.

Certainly Botox or one of the other neuromodulators will help. We can all "create" lines by frowning and the longer we frown, the more etched in the lines get.The nice thing with Botox is that you can modify the muscle action to different degrees so you still maintain the ability to display natural expressions. Once the contractions are minimized, the lines smooth out.Any lines that are not caused by muscle contraction can be touched up with a filler, but you will probably see that Botox will take care of the ones you have.

BoTox will certainly make a significant difference for your wrinkles. Although difficult to tell without an examination, it does appear that such a modality would ameliorate your concerns. However, fillers may be necessary if they are deep or possibly if present without animation.

Botox will help significantly in your particular situation. However, if your lines are there at rest a filler may be necessary to make them go away completely. Regular Botox injections will soften your forehead lines dramatically well even without fillers. Make sure you undergo treatments by a board-certified physician.

You are an excellent candidate for Botox. The wrinkles are not too deep at this stage and Botox would help maintain it that way.

Botox will be the most effective treatment for you to soften those deep lines. If those lines are present even when your face is at rest (when you are not raising your eyebrows) then the lines may not completely disappear with Botox, but they will soften quite a bit. Botox works by relaxing the muscle underneath the skin. Each time your muscle contracts, it is wrinkling your skin and creating an imprint in it. When it is relaxed, it can no longer deepen this wrinkle.
