Does Botox help to fix loose forehead skin?

Botox relaxes muscles of expression. In the forehead the affected muscle elevates the brow, so relaxing it can make it more droopy. The same applies if the skin is loose. Ultherapy and browlifting surgery might be better options, depending on your individual condition.

Hello there,Thank you for your question.  If you're looking to tighten the skin, you should consider discussing laser resurfacing, radio frequency devices, micro needling with PRP or at worst case, a forehead lift.  While botox will soften the wrinkles, it will not actually tighten the skin.  I recommend speaking with a board-certified physician regarding your concerns so you can both come up with a treatment plan that will best suit your aesthetic needs.  Hope this helps.All the best,Carlos Mata, MD, MBA, FACSBoard-Certified Plastic Surgeon

Thank you for your question.  For most cases Botox has been and continues to provide amazing results for lines in the forehead.  It will last about 4 months and you would simply return to your injector to repeat the process.  Best!

Hello, thank you for your question. Botox is used to temporarily inhibit muscle action that may actually be helping hold the loose skin on your forehead up. Therefore, Botox will not address the problem of loose skin. You may be better suited for a filler that will add volume and stretch the skin, or a laser resurfacing treatment, depending on how much loose skin there is. I recommend scheduling an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who can look at what you are referring to and give you more detailed advice. Good luck!

Hi there, thanks for your question. BOTOX® can be very effective at smoothing away dynamic lines and wrinkles in your forehead area, although it cannot address loose or sagging skin. For this reason, you may want to talk to a board-certified plastic surgeon about combining BOTOX® with a laser skin treatment to address both sagging skin and wrinkles and enhance your overall results.
