Forehead lines are a common concern with aging. They can be caused by the natural process of aging, but may also result from excessive frowning or squinting over time. For many people, forehead anti-wrinkle injections can provide an optimal solution because they work to temporarily smooth out these lines and wrinkles in just one treatment session!
How to reduce forehead lines with injectables
Forehead line injections are a non-invasive treatment, which uses an anti-wrinkle injectable to smooth out your forehead lines. The treatment is typically performed by injecting small amounts of product into the muscles on your forehead. This causes a smoothing effect on these lines and reduces their appearance over time.

While this may be discouraging news for some, there are other methods available which work better with long-term results. If you have a heavy, sagging brow, an endoscopic brow lift may be the preferred option.

Many people will get a wrinkle on their forehead when they are concentrating or thinking hard. The reason for the wrinkles is that the muscle between our eyebrows, called the corrugator supercilii, compresses and creates these lines.
