Forehead wrinkles are among the most evident signs of skin ageing. Read the article to find out how to eliminate them in an immediate and lasting way.
Forehead wrinkles already appear between the ages of 20 and 25, due to the continuous muscular strain associated with facial expression.
As expression lines, they are in fact caused and emphasised by daily movements that cause us to furrow our foreheads.
Over the years, lines and furrows become more and more evident, due to the progressive loss of hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin. The result is a visibly older face and a more severe, tired expression.
In this article we will look at how to eliminate wrinkles on the forehead, focusing on two of the most popular and effective solutions, namely botox and hyaluronic acid fillers.

When deciding how to eliminate forehead wrinkles effectively, botox and hyaluronic acid fillers are among the most popular procedures in aesthetic medicine.
Both treatments give visible and satisfying results but differ in their mode of action, purpose and safety.
Botox is a drug (botulinum toxin) that works by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for expression lines.
It is injected into strategic areas to block the nerve signals that induce muscle contraction, making the skin surface more relaxed. The result is a noticeable reduction in the frontal lines and a more relaxed and youthful appearance.
The effects of Botox stabilise after a few days and last about 3-6 months, depending on the individual response.
Hyaluronic acid fillers, on the other hand, work by restoring lost skin volumes and hydrating the tissues from within. Hyaluronic acid is a biocompatible and reabsorbable substance that is injected into wrinkles to fill furrows and restore firmness to the skin.
Again, the results are immediately visible and, depending on the product used and the patient’s individual response, can last 6-12 months.

For anyone wishing to eliminate forehead wrinkles, knowing the difference between botox and hyaluronic acid fillers is essential for an informed choice. Although both are outpatient procedures, they are two completely different approaches.
As a drug, botox can have undesirable effects, such as muscle weakness and sagging of the face due to the migration of the toxin to the muscles adjacent to the injection site.
Botox may also give the face an artificial expression, especially with high dosages or repeated treatments.
Hyaluronic acid fillers, on the other hand, use a substance naturally present in the body, known for its moisturising and filling properties. For this reason, the risks of contraindications and side effects are extremely low and mostly related to the quality of the product used.
Being biocompatible, hyaluronic acid offers a natural and harmonious effect as it integrates with the tissues, improving tone and volume without altering facial expressions.
Thus, botox relaxes wrinkles by blocking expression muscles, for a smooth but less dynamic appearance. Fillers plump and smooth forehead wrinkles while maintaining the natural mobility of the face.
Hyaluronic acid is one of the most effective and safest treatments to remove deep wrinkles. Thanks to its ability to bind to water molecules, it offers a volumising and moisturising effect.
The procedure is simple and minimally invasive. The aesthetic doctor applies the filler, in the form of a transparent jelly, with micro-injections inside the wrinkles on the forehead.
Once injected, the hyaluronic acid fills the furrows, restoring a smooth and firm appearance to the skin.
This molecule acts as a kind of natural ‘sponge’, retaining water in the tissues and instantly improving skin firmness.
Moreover, its moisturising effect penetrates deeply, nourishing the cells and improving the overall quality of the skin.
Results are immediate and visible immediately after treatment, with a natural effect that persists for several months, contributing to a fresh and rested face.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are one of the most popular aesthetic treatments to correct forehead wrinkles and, more generally, age-related imperfections.
For practitioners, safety should be a top priority when choosing which injectors to use. Choosing for high-quality products not only guarantees natural and long-lasting results but, above all, reduces the risk of side effects or adverse reactions.
A key element is the purity of the hyaluronic acid used, which must be biocompatible and free of impurities or potentially irritating substances.
The Foliage by Phitogen range is a safe and versatile choice, thanks to the rigorous selection of materials and quality controls applied throughout the production process.
Each filler in the Foliage range is designed to meet specific aesthetic needs, differing in the degree of cross-linking, or cross-linking, that determines its density, viscosity and durability.
A high degree of cross-linking makes the filler more suitable for deep wrinkles and volume restoration. Conversely, a lower degree of cross-linking is ideal for delicate areas or for moisturising and texture-enhancing treatments.
Becoming a Foliage by Phitogen distributor means guaranteeing an aesthetically harmonious result, as well as offering patients maximum safety, minimising risks and optimising the biocompatibility of the treatment.
Foliage is the result of 20 years' experience of Phitogen Beauty Labs - a leading group in the production of hyaluronic acid-based injectables. Foliage distributes a complete range of high-performing intradermal products.
