Would forehead filler between brow ridges affect a prominent vein? (photos)

October 9, 2018
Asked By:gregmalt in Beverly Hills, CA

I have protruding brow ridges with low volume in between which creates a vertical shadow on my forehead. I would have it filled but I'm worried about the vein that goes through this area. (Two questions: - Could filling between the brow ridges risk compressing on that vein and hinder blood flow? (assuming no intravascular injection) - If safe, could filling around and above the vein diminish its appearance? Any other treatment options would be worth mentioning
