Botox for Forehead & Brow

Your face is typically one of the first things that people notice. With multiple dynamic muscles constantly on the move with every facial expression, the upper face is also one of the first parts of the body that wrinkles and develops lines.

During the natural aging process, skin loses elasticity and volume, making it less capable of bouncing back and diminishing the look of lines and wrinkles.

Botox® has been a safe and effective treatment option for wrinkles since its Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2002. As a cosmetic treatment, it has more than 16 years of research supporting its use for reducing lines and wrinkles of all types.

At The Rejuva Center at Williams, in Albany, New York, we have successfully provided Botox® forehead treatments, Botox® glabella treatments, Botox® brow lifts, and much more. With a single treatment session, Botox® can smooth lines and wrinkles, lift skin, and provide a more youthful appearance that can last up to four months.

Pre and Post Instructions

Botox® for Treating Forehead Wrinkles & Lines

Forehead lines and wrinkles are a big concern for many because of the high-visibility nature of the area. Repeated expressions that use the frontalis muscle in the forehead and the natural aging process both contribute to lines and wrinkles on this part of the face, making people look more serious and aging their appearance.

Botox® forehead treatments can minimize the appearance of horizontal lines and wrinkles, including those that are moderate to severe. After Botox® is injected into the forehead, the solution moves through the dermis and into the underlying muscle.

The Botox® then blocks the nerve synapses, preventing the muscle from transmitting signals to and from the nerves. This keeps the muscle in the treatment area relaxed. When the muscles don’t contract, this softens and smooths the lines and wrinkles in the forehead and helps prevent the formation of new ones.

Botox® for Brow Lift & Eyebrows

For patients interested in opening the eye area and lifting the brows, we are proud to offer the Botox® brow lift. Referred to by some as “Hollywood’s best kept secret,” this treatment option is an increasingly popular choice for achieving defined brows and an eye area that looks more youthful and awake. The difference is subtle, but significant. Unlike a traditional brow lift, which is a surgical procedure, Botox® can be used to achieve a similarly lifted effect.

During treatment, injections of Botox® help relax the corrugator muscles, which pull the inner portion of the eyebrows down, and the orbicularis oculi muscle, which goes around the eye and pulls down on the outer part of the eyebrow.

Once the injections are administered in the treatment area, the muscles in the forehead pull the relaxed muscles upward, achieving a lifted look without any need for invasive surgery. The amount of lift varies, depending on the muscle tone of the active muscles.

Botox® for Glabella or Between the Eyes

Aging isn’t the only cause of frown lines, commonly called glabellar lines because they appear in the glabella area — the skin across the forehead, above the nose, and above the eyebrows is subject to lines and wrinkles. Repetitive movements and contractions of two muscles in the area cause these lines to deepen and become more visible as skin loses its elasticity.

Botox® glabella treatments can reduce the look of these lines, restoring a more youthful, fresh appearance. Administering Botox® between the eyebrows relaxes the two main facial muscles — corrugators and procerus muscles, which are in your lower forehead and near the upper part of the nose. These muscles are used in many facial expressions. By relaxing these muscles and minimizing the movement, this treatment helps the skin stretch upward and outward, smoothing fine lines and potentially preventing them from becoming deeper.

Dysport is a comparable neurotoxin injectable that is commonly used for treating glabellar lines. However, there are several differences between Botox and Dysport injections and it is important to find out which is best for you.

What to Expect from Forehead & Brow Botox® Treatment

Our Botox® forehead treatments are safe and effective. Many patients report noticing a difference within the first 24 to 48 hours after treatment, but it usually takes seven to 10 days and possibly up to 30 days to see the full results. The results are not permanent and typically last up to four months. The length of your appointment will vary, depending on the number of treatments being administered.

During Your Treatment

After arriving, one of our trained, professional specialists will prepare the treatment area. The doctor will perform the Botox® forehead wrinkle treatment, Botox® glabella treatment, a Botox® brow lift, or multiple treatments, depending on your treatment plan.

Each injection only takes seconds to complete, and most people report feeling a small pinch at the injection site, but significant discomfort is rare.

After Treatment & Results

After treatment, most people can resume their normal activities. Some may notice slight swelling at the injection site, which typically dissipates within an hour or two. Swelling and bruising is also possible. Other potential, slight side effects include soreness and mild redness, all of which usually go away within one week of treatment.

No matter which treatments are chosen, patients can expect to receive high-level care, including friendly service and superior follow-up care in our private medical spa setting.We proudly provide excellent experiences to our patients, which has made us the premier non-surgical cosmetic treatment practice not only in the Capital District, but also in neighboring areas such as Saratoga, Troy, Clifton Park, Schenectady, and Latham.
