How Do I Get Rid of the Horizontal Crease Between my Eyes?

 

At the very top of my nose, between my eyes is a crease that appears as if my forehead is slipping down, which it probably is because when I put on a tight headband it lifts and softens. Would botox help with this?

 

Most of the time, wrinkles between the eyes are vertical (i.e. frown lines). However prominent horizontal lines are likely to be the result of excess activity with the proceris muscle.  Injecting Botox in this area should help.

You may still see a visible line after the Botox treatment. Botox will only address the muscle component of wrinkles. However, if the line is etched into the skin, a dermal filler might be needed to improve the appearance of this area in a more complete fashion.  

 

Based on your description, and without the benefit of actually seeing the problem, Botox should be your first step.  Botox is very good for reducing lines at rest and motion in this area.

You may need a filler as well, such as Juvederm, if Botox alone is not completely effective.

To permanently decrease or eliminate persistent lines at rest, a resurfacing procedure, such as fractionated CO2 (Matrix CO2 etc), is your best option.

Most likely, Botox will help reduce the appearance of the creases between your eyes. You should consult in person with a facial plastic surgeon to make sure Botox is the correct treatment. If you have more severe sagging, other treatments might be better.
