forehead

Forehead wrinkles are one of the commonest areas people have concerns with regard to ageing. Frown lines and forehead lines (also called worry lines) are the most common aesthetic complaint.

As we age, the forehead area can undergo changes that affect its appearance. Some of the most common age-related changes that can occur in the forehead area include:

Wrinkles and Fine Lines

Fine lines and wrinkles can form on the forehead, making it appear aged. These lines can be caused by repetitive facial movements like frowning or raising the eyebrows.

Sagging Skin

Loss of elasticity in the skin can lead to sagging and drooping of the forehead, creating a tired or aged appearance.

Volume Loss

The forehead can lose volume and become sunken, making wrinkles and fine lines more noticeable.

Brow Descent

The eyebrows can descend with age, leading to a hooded appearance and making the forehead appear heavier.

Forehead Lines

Deep horizontal lines can form on the forehead due to repeated facial expressions or sun damage.

Hollowing of the temples

The temples can become sunken and hollow due to the loss of fat and collagen. A hollow temple can make you look older or more tired than you actually are. The overall effect makes your face look gaunt and less youthful. This hollowing effect can also make the forehead appear wider and the eyes appear more sunken, creating a more aged or tired appearance. Additionally, when the temples are hollowed, it can make the cheekbones appear less prominent, which can further detract from a youthful, defined facial structure.
