Case Study: Botox Treatment for Forehead and Frown Lines

Patient Profile

  • Age: Mid-40s
  • Main Concerns: Prominent forehead lines, frown lines (glabellar complex), and early signs of static wrinkles.
  • Goal: Achieve a smoother, more relaxed appearance while maintaining natural facial expressions.

Treatment Plan

  • Neurotoxin Used: Botox® (OnabotulinumtoxinA)
  • Areas Treated:
    • Forehead (frontalis muscle)
    • Glabellar complex (corrugator & procerus muscles)
  • Dosage: Adjusted according to patient’s muscle strength and wrinkle depth (standard dosing protocol applied).

Before & After Results

  • Forehead:
    • Before: Deep horizontal lines visible at rest, accentuated with movement.
    • After: Smooth forehead with significantly reduced lines, natural mobility preserved.
  • Glabella (Frown Lines):
    • Before: Severe vertical lines creating a tired or angry expression.
    • After: Lines markedly softened, restoring a fresher and more approachable look.

(See images above: clear reduction in both dynamic and static wrinkles.)

Patient Feedback

The patient reported high satisfaction, noting she looked “more relaxed and refreshed” without appearing “frozen.”

Key Takeaways

  • Botox is highly effective in treating dynamic wrinkles when tailored to the patient’s muscle activity.
  • Results are visible within 3–7 days, with optimal effect at 2 weeks.
  • Longevity: 3–4 months, depending on individual metabolism and muscle activity.
