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: Dent in forehead Hello and thanks so much for your question- It looks like the "dent" you're referring to is actually some musculature in the glabella area. If you were my patient, I would love to get a great exam and see if it's more noticeable upon raising your forehead. Botox would work great if that's the case- if it's just a large supraorbital ridge- that can be smoothed by filler. Hope this helps and God Bless! Dr. Robb

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.
