There are 2 types of forehead filling applications depending on the treatment goal. The first is a relatively superficial application that targets mimic lines, and the aim of the other application is to shape the forehead and obtain a more rounded appearance from the side profile.
Forehead lines are similar to palm lines, and forehead lines are actually like our destiny. These lines tend to increase with age. Forehead lines become prominent with the raising of eyebrows. Skin thickness is an important determinant in making forehead lines visible. However, people with dry skin can have prominent forehead lines even if they do not raise their eyebrows.
It is not always necessary to fill the forehead lines. For example, filling is not applied to lines and wrinkles that are inconspicuous when your face is motionless or at rest, that is, when you are not making gestures.
Wrinkles that are visible (static lines) when the person does not make facial expressions, does not raise his eyebrows, that is, when his face is at rest can be filled. However, wrinkle treatment must be applied before the filling application, and the forehead muscle that causes mimic wrinkles needs to be weakened.
Filling is not warranted if the lines become prominent only with forehead movements and there are no lines except for mimic movements. Full results can be obtained just with wrinkle treatment. By taking advantage of its anti-wrinkle effect, you can delay the need for filling for a long time and prevent wrinkles in this area.
Hyaluronic acid is injected with a needle into and under the wrinkle line when filling forehead lines. Numbing creams are applied to the areas to be treated or numbing injections are made to eliminate any pain from the injection.
The amount of filler to be applied during the procedure may vary, depending on the size of the problem of the people who want their forehead lines filled.
The effect of the application can be immediately visible, but it is possible to have redness or swelling during the first one or two days. It is necessary to wait 3-4 days for the most ideal image. The first control is done at the end of the second week following the filler application to the forehead lines.
The result will last longer if the procedure is done together with wrinkle treatment. The permanence of the procedure is variable according to the individual’s muscle strength and the frequency of facial expressions.
The aim is to obtain a rounded appearance in the forehead from the side profile. The foreheads of people with prominent foreheads can sometimes appear bumpy.
A blunt-tipped apparatus called a cannula, which does not harm tissue, is used in forehead filling for shaping purposes. A safe application can be made with this apparatus that slides between the tissues. Shaping is done by entering from several points on the forehead. The effect of the process is permanent for an average of 10-12 months.
