Depression in Forehead, Shows from Front and Profile (Not a Wrinkle)?

April 17, 2012
Asked By:lagirlindc in Washington, DC

I have a depression, or hollow indent, in the center of my forehead. It is between, but a bit above, my eye brows. It's not a wrinkle, and it is almost circular in shape....it's not cute, definitely makes me look older! What is this and how can I have it treated? It shows up the worst in photos, but I can see it face-on in the mirror, or even in profile. I would say this has developed within the last 12 months.

Answer: Filler such as Perlane, Restylane, Juvaderm or Radiesse may correct the dimple. Subcision is another option.
