Best thing for vertical frown lines

10 replies

I'm in my mid thirties and have two vertical frown lines on my forehead between my eyebrows. They are ALWAYS there and I hate them. I even have my fringe just to try and cover them a bit.

What can I do about them (that works!)? I'm considering Botox but if there is another alternative I would prefer

Botox

Botox, fringe or new glasses!

There isn't an alternative to Botox. It works perfectly and you'll wonder why you haven't had it done sooner!

Age gracefully or spend your life threating! I plan to get a fringe when mine are really bad. I've had heavy frown lines since i was 6 though, i think facially i use a lot of expressions. I've always been told i look younger for my age though, so maybe lines don't automatically mean you look old hmm

If it really bothers you Botox will sort it AND stop it getting worse.

Botox!

What are your forehead frown lines like? They might do your forehead too as sometimes it looks silly to get rid of one wrinkly point when the rest of the face is wrinkly.

I get forehead, vertical lines between brows, and crows feet. Costs a bomb though

You could try frownies first?

Do you wear glasses? If not, get your eyes tested before reaching for the Botox. I developed pronounced '11' lines between my eyebrows from squinting at distant objects. They have smoothed noticeably since I started wearing glasses.

No I don't wear glasses and have my eyes tested every year - no problems.

Already have a fringe trying to hide it, but I still can see them. Otherwise I'd say my forehead is ok.

Time to get saving then!!!

Try retinol first - doesn't get rid of deep lines completely, but smooths them over so they aren't nearly so noticeable
