About a year ago I noticed a vertical dent about an inch long from my hair line, I noticed it a few days after receiving botox (not my first time) it seems to be betting More noticiable and now it looks like it goes all the way to my eyebrow. I think there may be a vein as when I cried recently it buldged out... how ever it looks and feels like a dent. Its making me very self conscious. Can anyone confirm if one, it could of been caused by botox, two is filer could help and three what is it?
Answer: Filler for forehead dents It's hard to tell from the photo, so an in person evaluation with a very skilled filler provider in your area is your best bet. Volume loss from aging or scars can be improved with fillers, however, the forehead is an area that requires a high level of expertise to treat safely and effectively. Ask friends and family for recommendations, check reviews and choose an experienced provider who is comfortable using fillers in this area. Best regards, Dr. Tkatch

Answer: Vertical forehead dent after Botox Thank you for your question and the accompanying photo. This is a great question as we see this gradually develop in many Botox patients over time. Find an anatomical image of the frontalis muscles of the forehead, our main targets for forehead Botox. You will see that the vertical line lies between the two frontalis muscles themselves. In short, I do think this is related to forehead Botox. It is possible to fill this area if you go to a skilled injector. Best of luck to you!
