Forehead & Eleven Lines

Forehead lines can appear as a common symptom of ageing, appearing horizontally across the top of the head or as short vertical creases between the eyebrows – known as ‘eleven lines’.

In one’s youth these lines will appear and disappear as the forehead and eyebrows move, developing a more pronounced and permanent presence the older a person gets.

Lines and wrinkles often emerge in the skin during a person’s 30’s and can be attributed to the weakening of the skin and underlying biological structure. Found naturally in the skin, collagen and elastin are the substances that ensure a firm, full and supple structure is upheld.

About this condition

Through the ageing process, the production of these proteins starts to decline and the skin loses volume and its youthful ability to bounce back. In the case of forehead lines and eleven lines, weakening skin is accompanied by tired muscles.

Everyday we use our faces to repeatedly display facial expressions, show emotions and communicate with others which uses a variety of muscles in different areas of the face. When the muscles contract they form a hollow in the tissues beneath the skin, which the surface of the complexion falls into and a wrinkles forms.

Skin ageing can be brought on more rapidly by external factors, including: sun exposure, smoking, alcohol consumption, air pollutants and eating a poor diet. Although eating healthy, taking regular exercise, staying well hydrated and maintaining a good skincare regime can help to keep the skin in good condition, ageing will eventually come to us all.

At Nassif MedSpa, dermal fillers and / or wrinkle injections can help to soften the look of forehead lines and eleven lines for a more youthful and radiant look.
