Hi Lisa. What you show in the picture is something called a glabella crease. This crease is the intersection of two muscle groups. When you flex or contract the muscles in this area (a frown), the action causes an indentation or crease over time.

If it does not, we would use a soft filler (only in situations where Dysport alone does not work completely) like Restylane to fill the crease. Below you will find pictures of a patient that had this procedure in our Orange, CA office.

A Mid forehead lift is not a procedure used commonly today. Modern advances in endoscopic surgery have allowed the forehead to be lifted through small incisions hidden behind the hairline. The Mid forehead lift incisions have the potential to leave visible scars.
