How can I get rid of a horizontal crease between my eyes? It is as my forehead skin is slipping down on my nose.

Question

I am a 19 year old boy. I got this horizontal crease between my forehead and nose. Is there any implement that could fit in this borrow or crease.

Photographs or an examination of you would be helpful to give you the best advice, but in general, botox and/or an injectable filler can usually help to improve a horizontal crease between the forehead and nose.

I would love to answer your question. There's a muscle the pulls that part of your anatomy. Relaxing that muscle should help a lot to rejuvenate your face. Have a formal consultation to see if you're a candidate.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Photos would be helpful, but it sounds like a neuromodulator, such as Botox, Dysport or Xeomin, could give you some relief. A little Botox in the muscles that pull downward on your forehead would relax them and lift your brow. That should also decrease the crease that bothers you. Sometimes, we also recommend injection of a hyaluronic acid filler into the crease to fill it up. If a filler is used, results can last over a year. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist who is an expert at using fillers and neuromodulators to treat the forehead.

It is difficult to offer treatment recommendations without a photo or exam.  If the crease is caused from muscle activity then Botox can help soften the look.  If it's not from muscle activity you may be able to use fillers to disguise it.  I recommend visiting an expert injector in your area for a consultation to determine what is best for you.

Dear ps9114017,
Thank you for your question. We recommend you seek a consultation with a facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who can perform a thorough examination and then discuss with you the best treatment options to meet your goals. Neurotoxins and fillers may help reduce the forehead crease you are concerned about. Other topical or resurfacing treatments such as a skin care regimen, laser resurfacing, and microneedling may also be beneficial depending on your exam.
