Everything ages, even the forehead!
The skin wrinkles, the muscles thin out and even the bones shrink.
The muscles under the forehead also age. They become thinner, which gradually attenuates the curvature of the forehead. As a result, the forehead relaxes a little and the height of the forehead increases.
As a result, the front shows the effects of time.
Young people have a well rounded forehead, while older people have a broad, flat forehead on which you can even see the muscle head protruding: small balls located just above the eyebrow.
As the bone ages, it also ages very noticeably. This is how, in archaeology, the age of the skulls that are discovered can be dated quite easily.
Bones shape with age, giving rise to different curvatures. Children and young people have a convex curvature, uniform in both vertical and horizontal directions. However, with age, the curvatures become very different. In the vertical direction, starting from the hairline, we have a slight bulge, then a hollow, and then a bulge again up to the brow bone.
The forehead tends to take on an “S” shape. The same thing happens horizontally with a bulge on the sides of the forehead, then a small hollow and again a bulge in the central part.
The medical approach
The muscle can be treated using Botox (botulinum toxin) injection across the entire forehead. This removes all permanent expression lines and results in a smooth forehead.
The hyaluronic acid injections can fill a hollow forehead, to make it convex, advance the eyebrow arches to reduce bulging eyes or optically the length of the nose.
