I have some lines across my forehead I would like treated with fillers, but everything on the internet suggests that neuromodulators are the recommended treatment for horizontal lines. Some sites recommend doing a combination but pure fillers seems to be treated as a non-option for this area. I am not interested in neuromodulators because I do not want to lose dynamic expression, only to treat the static wrinkles. Is there some reason fillers would not work? Will it look unnatural?
Answer: Botox is the best recommendation for horizontal forehead lines Hi there and thank you for your question! typically we do not use filler for any horizontal forehead lines due to wrinkles not having enough depth to add volume back to the area. Adding filler to shallow line would make the area look lumpy and uneven, especially with thinner skin in the area. You could always try micro needling or retinol use to help tackle those resting lines if you don't want to be treated with a neurotoxin. Or you could get a light dose of botox across the forehead where you are still able to have movement! Hope this helps!

Answer: Filler in forehead. Risks and benefits. Botox is the standard recommended treatment to treat forehead lines. I and lasts 3-4 months. It is safe, effective, relatively inexpensive and can be performed by injectors with minimal experience. $200 can normally shut down the horizontal forehead lines completely. This may lead to a flat, shinny forehead. A lighter dose of 6 to 12 units is a nice option that relaxes the forehead while leaving natural movement. Fillers in the forehead can provide a beautiful, natural result. Your dynamic expression will not be lost. Treating foreheads with filler does have its risks. There are two important arteries in the forehead that if injected with filler could communicate with the artery for your eye and potentially result in blindness or in a lesser circumstance compromise the circulation to the skin of your forehead. to lessen the risk, I recommend using a cannula with small injections of a soft filler product. Additionally in order to have a natural result the filler needs to be carefully injected in a smooth manner. The forehead space between your skull and the skin is thin and any irregularity of the filler will be very noticeable. Forehead filler will cost around $1,000.00 and last a year.My favourite solution is to combine a light botox and filler. The combination will be superior for a natural, long lasting result. Forehead filler when done by an experienced physician will look amazing . I hope this answers your question and gives you confidence to move forward.
