Forehead Lines
Say good bye those forehead lines
Forehead lines are the horizontal wrinkles that span in the forehead above the eyebrows. These facial lines, creases, and wrinkles often develop in our late adult lives and are more noticeable especially in areas where there is frequent muscle movement such as the forehead. As we age, we lose collagen and elastin, which are proteins that give our skin structure, and losing these proteins will eventually cause these lines. Other preventable habits may also cause this condition, for example, when we rest our hands on our faces, it creates folds within our skin or even facial expressions like smiling and frowning that allow the skin to form creases. Treatment options for this condition are anti-wrinkle treatments, biorevitalisation, and laser skin resurfacing.
Treatment Options
Botulinum Toxin type A Treatment
Botulinum Toxin are toxins injected into the body in small doses to temporarily relax the muscle. It earned the approval of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for optional treatment of wrinkles in 1989, and botulinum toxin type A was also later approved by FDA in 2002. This treatment works by blocking signals from the nerves to the muscles, making the injected muscle unable to contract. As a result, it makes conditions such as wrinkles relax and soften. Because of their aesthetic benefits, it has become one of the most commonly used treatments in cosmetics. Botulinum injections can be harmful in the hands of an amateur injector, that's why it's incredibly important to seek a credible aesthetician when performing the treatments.

Biorevitalisation
Biorevitalization is the revitalisation of skin in a natural way using its own collagen. It principally works by kickstarting the production of natural collagen and cell rejuvenation through the injection of hyaluronic acid along with other vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants into the upper layer of the skin. This infusion of nourishing ingredients helps to deeply hydrate and reinvigorate the skin, and is used as a treatment option for pigmentation, dull or dry skin, and improving the quality of the skin. This treatment option is a modern method in treating skin imperfections or cosmetic corrections. These injections are done to deliver, delivering nutrients into the skin to hydrate and revitalise.

Laser skin resurfacing is the gold standard therapy for skin smoothing and tightening. This non ablative fractional technology uses microbeams of energy to create areas of affected tissue that extend through the epidermis into the dermis. This triggers the body’s natural healing process to create new, healthy collagen. Best for: facial anti-ageing and resurfacing
What is Laser resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing has long been established as an optional treatment for acne scars, traumatic scars, pigmentation, sun damage, enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven skin texture and stretch-marks. The principle of skin resurfacing is to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process to replace damaged skin with fresh, healthy, new skin.Key Information
