Should I get Botox for my forehead wrinkles or fillers?
2026.07.13 23:25
Lately, faint horizontal wrinkles have started appearing on my forehead, so I've been scanning the dermatologist. However, now that I've taken a close look at my forehead in the mirror, I'm going crazy because I can't tell if this warrants Botox or fillers.
When I look at the fine wrinkles that form on the upper part of my face when I open my eyes wide or make facial expressions, it seems like getting a Botox injection to tighten the muscles would be the right thing to do. However, even when I am still with a neutral expression, the middle of my forehead is slightly sunken, and because of this sunken contour, the shadows of the wrinkles seem to look deeper.
This makes me wonder if I need to use fillers to flatten the sunken areas rather than just tightening the muscles with Botox to smooth out the wrinkles. However, I'm hesitant to just get fillers because my forehead is wide, and I'm afraid it might look unnatural with only my forehead bulging out. On the other hand, I'm also worried that if I only get Botox, the wrinkles will go away, but my eyelids will feel heavy, forcing me to keep my eyes half-closed.

- 02CommentsI sympathize with you saying that when your arms are rough, you want to rub them, but you want to know their condition first haha.180026.11.04
- 03CommentsIt seems like going to work with the tape on might be more of a concern than the day of the mole removal, haha.220026.11.04
- 01CommentsIf it stings even after applying moisturizing cream, it might indicate that your skin barrier is weakened rather than just being dry. If it were me, instead of getting a skin booster right away, I would consider reducing the use of irritating products for a while, stabilize your skin condition with soothing care, and then think about the procedure.380026.10.30
- 02CommentsIt must be inconvenient if your lips dry out again even after applying lip balm. Would it be helpful to review your moisturizing method if you could list the lip products you are currently using and when the stinging occurs?400026.10.30
- 03CommentsIf it is difficult to go out without lip balm, it must be really miserable every change of season. I sympathize with your curiosity about whether it is simply dryness or if there is another cause.300026.10.31
