What could cause this indented line down my forehead and can it be fixed? (Photo)

Question

24F this indented line started developing down the middle of my forehead around 2 years ago and has gotten worse. It’s really bothering me and it’s making me really self conscious. It used to be mostly visible from one angle but it’s pretty prominent now and have no idea what could be causing it.

It appears, based on your history, age and clinical presentation that you may have PRS! That is very diverse clinical syndrome with leading sings like loss and atrophy of soft tissues of the face, occasionally involving bones and cartilage. It is progressive desease and should be addressed sooner than later. In your case correction with fat grafting may be sufficient at this time. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and neurologist is recommended. Good luck.

Thank you for your query. The indentation you see could be because of the muscles on both sides. Careful injection of fillers or fat may help. Please find an experienced Board certified Plastic surgeon who can examine you and help you with all your concerns. All the best.
