Where should Botox be placed for forehead horizontal lines?

Thank you for your question Newyorkers. Botox is a purified protein used to address wrinkles associated with
facial expression such as the horizontal lines seen on the upper forehead when one raises the brows. Botox works by relaxing the muscles. Therefore it is placed in the muscle. There is considerable anatomic variation in the upper forehead area and the placement is determined by visualizing the areas that move when raising and relaxing the brows. Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!

Hi,  Your injector took the safe route by placing Botox in the top half of your forehead.  The risk when it is placed lower is that it will knock out the muscles that raise your eyebrows leaving you with heavy brows.   The only way treat your horizontal forehead wrinkles without leading to more wrinkles above your eyebrows is for your injector to very carefully place a few micro-units in the lower part of your forehead.  Keep in mind that while this will reduce those wrinkles above the eyebrows, it will also wear off faster than the rest of your Botox because such a small amount is used there.
