Forehead wrinkles

Horizontal lines on the forehead also known as forehead wrinkles Caused by repeated raising of the eyebrows. These wrinkles can give the face a tired or restless appearance.

At Xavier Clinics we treat forehead wrinkles with botulinum toxin in a subtle and controlled manner. The goal is a smoother and calmer forehead, while retaining natural facial expressions and features.

What are forehead wrinkles?

Forehead wrinkles are horizontal lines that become visible when raising the eyebrows. Over time, these lines can remain visible even when resting.

Causes of forehead wrinkles:

  • Repetitive facial expressions

  • Skin aging

  • Decrease in collagen and elasticity

  • Genetic predisposition

  • Combination with frown activity

Because the forehead works in conjunction with the eyebrows, careful balance is essential to maintain a natural result.

How does botulinum toxin work for forehead wrinkles?

Botulinum toxin temporarily relaxes the muscle (frontalis) responsible for raising the eyebrows. This:

  • Reduce horizontal lines

  • The skin becomes smoother

  • Makes the face look calmer

  • Are deeper wrinkles prevented?

The treatment is fast, safe and non-surgical.

Consultation with the doctor

Before all treatments, a consultation is scheduled. During this consultation, the doctor will listen to your wishes and explore the options available to achieve them. The doctor will thoroughly inform you about the pre- and aftercare, the expected results, any risks, and the recovery process for the chosen treatment.

The treatment

Once you've chosen to undergo treatment with us, we'll ask you to complete a medical questionnaire and sign a treatment agreement beforehand. If you take a lot of medication, please bring your medication list to your appointment.

Photos will be taken of you both before and after the treatment for your medical records. In some cases, the skin is locally anesthetized with a numbing cream or anesthetic solution before the treatment.

Aftercare

After the treatment, you will receive an aftercare form by email. You do not need to stay at the clinic and can go home immediately. It is common for the skin to be red and swollen after the treatment, and sometimes some bruising may occur. These side effects will disappear on their own. It is important that you cool the treated area well with the cool pack you received, if advised. If you experience severe bruising, we recommend applying Arnica cream to the treated area.

It is recommended that you avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for the first four hours after treatment. Exposure to intense heat (sun, sauna, or tanning bed) is also discouraged for one week after treatment. We advise against having a facial for two weeks after treatment. You can assess the final result after two weeks.

If you have any questions about your recovery, please feel free to contact us.

Risks

The risk of complications is very small. As with any procedure, there is a small risk of infection or allergy.
