I appear to have a protruding brow bone, but the center of my forehead appears to lack tissue which casts a dent in most lighting. Could this be fixed, to smooth out my face, in a non-invasive way? Whenever I raise my eyebrows slightly, I have a noticeable dent in between my eyebrows. I am unsure if I would need to have a higher nose bridge or if a combination of botox/fillers could smooth this section out. Also, how much would the total procedure cost?
Answer: Forehead dent It looks like a combination of filler and Botox could improve that area. The cost is typically in the hundreds of dollars, not thousands, and the result will be temporary, but should last for months in the case of Botox, and possibly years in the case of the filler.Andrew Campbell, M.D.

Answer: Forehead furrows. In a word, BOTOX. The lines are muscles that are contracting and Botox relaxes those muscles. If there are depressions that are present at rest (when making no expressions), then those are treated with injectable fillers. Long term, if the forehead begins to drop, the brow lift procedure may address the droopiness as well as providing long term resolution of these thick muscle contractions.

Answer: Fixing A Dent In The Forehead and Brows Hello Lucille. An in-person consultation and evaluation would be best to visualize the muscle movement in action. A combination of Botox and Fillers can be used to improve the area. I would start with the Botox first and then the Fillers if needed. Please make sure you see an experienced injector. Best wishes.

Answer: Smoothing Solutions with Botox and Fillers You're on the right track. Botox works well in this area however only works on movement lines and will not help a deep crease if it is there at rest. Thus, fillers will be needed in combination for best results. Cost will vary, but see an expert for a formal evaluation. If you want a surgical approach the bone can be shaved. I suggest an evaluation. Dr. Emer.
