[Eton TV] Worried About Forehead Wrinkles? From Surgery to Procedures!

Forehead wrinkles

are said to be the main culprit that makes you look older,

but in fact, they are not the cause of aging,

but the result.

Many people think that drooping eyelids, sagging jawlines, and nasolabial folds

are the results of aging,

but they are less familiar with “drooping eyebrows.”

When other areas sag, wrinkles appear.

When the eyebrows droop, the wrinkle that appears is the

“double eyelid.”

People often think the eyelids have drooped,

but in fact, the eyebrows have drooped,

which makes the double eyelid crease look deeper.

When the eyebrows droop,

it becomes difficult to open the eyes properly,

so you unconsciously use your forehead muscles

to lift the eyebrows.

When this action is repeated,

horizontal wrinkles become deeply etched in the forehead,

and as you get older, elasticity decreases,

so even after waking up, they no longer smooth out.

Many people do not realize it at first,

but one morning they look in the mirror

and are shocked to see that the forehead wrinkles are still folded in place,

then they come to the hospital.

In many cases, they come after it has already progressed to some extent.

That is why, when they come to the clinic,

they usually receive Botox treatment.

When you get Botox,

the forehead muscles become paralyzed,

so for 3 to 4 months you cannot make wrinkles even if you want to.

This is the procedure that is commonly done.

However,

some people say that their eyes became smaller after Botox.

This is often not a side effect of the procedure,

but rather a case of “someone who should not have had the procedure getting it anyway.”

There are people who can only open their eyes properly

by using their forehead muscles.

If such people get Botox near the wrinkles,

especially near the eyebrows,

the eyelids may droop more and the eyes may look smaller.

The lower part of the forehead wrinkles, which is functionally used to open the eyes,

has to be left alone.

Instead, it is better to smooth only the wrinkles that form above the middle of the forehead

with Botox.

People who can only open their eyes by using their forehead muscles

should first check the position of the eyebrows.

If you look in the mirror,

there is the area where the brow bone protrudes

and the actual position where the eyebrows are drawn.

When you are young, these heights are similar.

But for people with drooping eyebrows,

the eyebrows are often located far below the brow bone.

In such cases, surgery to adjust the position of the eyebrows,

namely a “brow lift,” is needed.

A brow lift

lifts the entire forehead,

tugging upward the tissues that have sagged downward.

This makes opening the eyes much easier,

and because the forehead is fixed,

you can open your eyes clearly

even without using your forehead muscles.

It is important to first remove the “cause”

of the wrinkles.

If you try to smooth only the wrinkles while leaving the cause as it is,

they will inevitably come back.

After a forehead lift,

there is also the effect of making the forehead slightly fuller.

That is an added benefit of a forehead lift.

As the uneven forehead is pulled tight and smoothed out,

people around you may even say they thought you had fat grafting.

In other words, you can achieve a beautiful forehead line

even without fat grafting.

However, some people choose to have forehead reduction

at the same time as a forehead lift.

Some people are born with a wide forehead,

and if you have a brow lift, the forehead may become a little wider.

In such cases, if it is clear that the forehead will become too wide,

it is difficult to recommend a lift.

People with a wide forehead

can consider forehead reduction surgery.

In general, forehead reduction surgery

is a procedure that pulls the hairline forward,

and when combined with a brow lift, the synergy is good.

If the two are done together,

more skin can be removed than when only the scalp is pulled,

so the forehead can be reduced more effectively.

And compared with pulling too hard from one side,

scarring can also be greatly reduced.

If surgery feels a bit scary,

and you want regular care,

there is a way to use Botox.

If you keep getting it at 4- to 6-month intervals

so that wrinkles do not form,

you can see the effect of slowing facial aging

during that period.

Botox is a proven and safe procedure,

and the cost is not that high.

Surgical methods

can be considered only when Botox is not enough to solve the problem.
