    Default Wrinkles on my forehead. Help!

    I am noticing many wrinkles on my forehead. Mostly when I move it like when I'm surprised or excited. But still I want them gone or at least reduced before it gets worse.

    Is is there anything on the market that you are using that helps reduce wrinkles?

    I'd like to try Botox or fillers some day but it seems so expensive Any other products really work ?

    I'm wondering about this too... I got wrinkles really early on though, I had at least one by the time I was 18 stupid skin... I've already decided to get Botox at some point, but if there's anything to prevent new wrinkles that actually works, y'know...

    Botox it is worth it. There is another one & it is cheap than botox & works well too, but forgot the name of it.
    There are all kinds of botox deals on groupon & such. Try one of those deals first.

    I love botox & fillers. Easily takes 5 to 10 years off of my face. Spend about $600 to $1000 twice a year.

    Or you can get your hair cut & have bangs to cover them up.

    Smooches,

    do you drink, smoke, or tan? diet high in sugar and processed foods? lots of stress & anxiety? all of those things can cause premature wrinkles pretty easily.
    you could try glycolic peels, and retin A prescription and ALWAYS moisturize. other than that, i would go with fillers. its really not that much money, and depending on what kind you get they last awhile.
    i know girls who are 23-26 who have forehead wrinkles, and its not really the wrinkles that make a person look noticeably older, its the bone structure and whether your skin is sagging

    ^No, IMO. It's 100% worth the money and you will spend less on it long term than you would on over the counter products. Botox lasts at least 3-4 months (longer, depending on how many units you need). And unlike cosmetic products you are guaranteed to see results, and quite quickly (at the most it will take 2 weeks to "kick in"). You wouldn't need fillers for your forehead, but botox or an AHA peel will help the skin to appear tighter .

    As for dysport-I haven't tried it. A cosmetic nurse, who did a product trial for it, told me that it's cheaper than botox, but not as "strong".

    WOOHOO Glad that black don't crack!!!!!!^_^ HA Seriously though you need to get fraxel laser treatments. They are made for white people! Yes they are upwards of $1000 but they last longer than botox. Or if you're cheap get retin-A at least 40%, I got it off a mexican website. You can get gel or cream based. Also, hyaluronic acid is great for collagen. I make my own acid peels but it's probably best that you fix the ones you have and then invest in botox to prevent future wrinkles. Also eat vitaminA at least 2000mg but becareful because it can make your hair fall out and turn you hands orange[that happened to me]

    Sry, This was a while ago and the website got shut down. I used to also use websites from canada..same thing happened though...those were the good days..You could try ebay, sometimes sellers from out of the country will sell you their products that they got from doctors. Its legit. I just got a prescript. cream that I needed.

    Getting botox too young does not prevent wrinkles. Read their website and first off all you can't freeze every muscle in the forehead or you'd look like a cave man, so the muscles that aren't working are making the others stronger ,hence wrinkles in other areas. I'm 45 and an thankful for great genetics. I have used botox the last 2 years and I never like the way it looks. Also over time your body builds up immunity to botulinum toxin and it wont be effective anymore. That's why they came out with zeomin. Any ways if your young chemical peels or anything that plumps that area. If your older a forehead lift is the way to go. They cut the muscle so no movement anymore without poision.

    Have you considered microneedling?

    Its 90% genetics, so if odds are against you, you will probably get them. I have them, but I opted for bangs. Its either bangs or botox.

    botox + retin a. botox is not expensive if you do it early for maitenance. if you wait till you have major wrinkles then you'll have to spend $500 for a full freeze and end up like nicole kidman. if you start early its $100 for just a few injections that'll prevent wrinkles from forming without losing all expression.

    i just gave retin a another go in december but stopped after about 5 weeks. They say it takes at least 6 months to see results but I felt like I already noticed my skin just looking 'better' in a weird way..

    The downsides? You have to use it every day for the rest of your life or the results are not permanent and it makes your skin flake like crazy and you can never ever tan under no circumstances.

    Needless to say I stopped and already made my appointment for a botox touch up... personal verdict? Just do it, works like a charm!

    yeah and u forgot to add that your skin will ITCH!!!!!!!!! But to me its like getting a fresh start. I feel like not doing stressful things and being self absorbed about taking care of your body is the best way to look young! For the already wrinkles look into minor surgeries/lifts.

    retin a is really great and for someone who can dedicate themselves to do it forever and do it right, def better than anything else. But for me living in Miami? Not an option unless I wanna have no life outside.

    Wrinkle creams do not work! Botox is your best bet. The creams can make your skin softer and more glowy though. If you want a quick fix before going on cam, on stage or whatever to immediately see an improvement, use Preparation H! I know everyone is probably laughing but I used to stay up all night and when under my eyes would get puffy or anything, bam Preparation H! It is not a major overhaul but it helps! I've heard several jokes about this but I have done it multiple times Just make sure you are not allergic to anything in it.
