HI I HAVE THIS DIMPLE ON TOP OF MY FOREHEAD DEEPENS WHEN I FROWN AND ON CERTAIN LIGHTINGS AND STILL SHOWS ON RELAXED FACE. I HAD THIS PROBLEM A YR AGO BUT FOR SOME REASON IT JUST WENT AWAY ON ITS OWN. NOW, I NOTICED THAT IT’S BACK RIGHT AFTER I HAD MY PRK I’M NOT SURE WHY. WILL IT GO AWAY AGAIN ON ITS OWN? HAVE I DONE SOMETHING BEFORE THAT MADE IT GO AWAY LIKE LOSING WEIGHT, EXERCISE, MOISTURIZER OR FACIAL MASSAGE?? I’M ONLY 22 AND I DON’T WANT TO UNDERGO BOTOX
