I’ve recently had micro-needling with PRP loved it. i was told the extra PRP can be injected and help with under eyes. Can PRP be effective for forehead lines instead of Botox? And crows feet lines. Is it safe to inject the forehead area?
Answer: Forehead Lines / Wrinkles -- Neuromodulators (Botox/Dysport/Xeomin/Jeuveau), Fillers (Belotero) + Lasers/Microneedling/PRP Thank you for your question, Neuromodulators (such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, and Jeuveau) and soft tissue fillers like Belotero can improve the appearance of the forehead by reducing lines, wrinkles and folds. Deeper lines and wrinkles need a combination approach with Botox, fillers, lasers, and microneedling/PRP. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to develop a treatment plan that works for you. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: PRP facial vs Botox These two treatments can be used individually and can achieve great results for fine wrinkles and crow's feet. As mentioned before Botox will give immediate results where as PRP takes several weeks and multiple treatments for best results. PRP will build new collagen and will help you achieve a natural face lift. Deep lines and crows feet will respond best to a combination treatment- so if you can afford it, I would recommend getting both done initially.

Answer: PRP for Forehead Lines PRP can be used like a filler. It will stimulate growth of new tissue and blood vessels in the areas injected. If there are static lines present when there is no facial expression being displayed, filler is used to plump the lines and stimulate collagen so PRP may be used instead. In the forehead especially as we age Botox has to be injected sparingly to prevent the brows and/or eyelids from drooping. In this case PRP can be used to soften the static lines of the forehead and crows feet. However, with facial expression like eyebrow elevation, smiling or squinting, the lines are due to muscle contraction so a Botox or similar product would still need to be injected to relax the muscle activity producing these lines at rest and with motion and to prevent them from becoming deeper.

Answer: CAn PRP be effective for forehead lines instead of Botox The effect is qute different. Botox inactivates the nerves that allow muscles to contract. The smoothing effect is the inability of the nerves in the treated area to perform their function
