I am 25 years old, I have forehead wrinkles. I have had Botox and I was happy with the results but right now I am considering to have a sustainable treatment that lasts longer than Botox. I have also read about Ellanse E that can last up to 4 years. My question is what treatment should I do?
Answer: Treatments for Forehead Wrinkles Forehead wrinkles are caused by mechanical injury to the skin due to overuse of the brow raising (frontalis) muscle. Botox is an ideal treatment for this area because is smooths the brow and prevents further injury to the skin by relaxing the muscle. Over time, the body repairs the injured skin and the lines further diminish.

Answer: Forehead wrinkles? Botox is great for fine lines Botox is the best way to prevent forehead wrinkles from worsening. It stops muscles from causing wrinkles and will keep your skin looking wonderful for years to come, provided you get touch-ups every three to four months. Your doctor can recommend great skin care products. I’d also advise regular chemical peels. I hope this helps.

Answer: Wrinkle treatment Thank you for your question! Botox or Dysport are excellent injectable treatments I use in my NYC practice in order to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines cause by muscle movement. Botox works by decreasing the muscle movement in the treated area, which will then smooth out the wrinkles you are experiencing. For my younger patients, Botox is an excellent preventative treatment to stop the static lines from becoming etched into the face. Results last 3-4 months. Hyaluronic acid based fillers can also be an option, and these results can last up to 12 months. For optimal results it is important to consult with a board certified dermatologist. Thank you for your question, best of luck!

Answer: Botox for horizontal lines on the forehead. Thanks for the question. Botox, Dysport or Xeomin are neuro modulators that decrease muscle movement by blocking the release of a chemical Acetylcholine from the nerve endings thereby decreasing dynamic wrinkles that is wrinkles that are caused by muscle movement. All these drugs work great on the upper face and last 3-4 months. One has to be careful though in some cases they can cause upper eyelid droop which is temporary. In your case any of these above drugs given in small amounts every 3-4 months would be effective. Alternately you could have some collagen fillers put in what they are also temporary and can have side effects especially if the injection is inadvertently made into a blood vessel.
