Say Goodbye to Forehead Lines
Forehead wrinkles are one of the first signs of aging — caused by years of facial expressions, sun exposure, and stress. Fortunately, Botox for forehead wrinkles offers a safe, quick, and effective way to achieve smoother, younger-looking skin without surgery.
At Vishka Skincare Medspa in Arlington VA, our skilled injectors specialize in natural, balanced results that refresh your face without changing your expression.
Let’s explore how Botox works, what to expect, and why it remains the gold standard for forehead rejuvenation.
How Botox Works on Forehead Wrinkles
Botox (Botulinum toxin type A) temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause forehead lines — particularly the frontalis muscle, which lifts the eyebrows and creates horizontal creases over time.
When injected precisely, Botox smooths these lines, softens expressions, and gives your face a rested, youthful appearance.
Benefits of Botox for forehead wrinkles:
- Reduces fine lines and deep creases
- Prevents new wrinkles from forming
- Delivers quick, natural results
- Requires no downtime
- Lasts 3–4 months on average

What to Expect During Treatment
1. Consultation
Your visit begins with a personalized consultation where your injector evaluates your facial anatomy and discusses your goals.
2. Preparation
The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical numbing agent may be applied for added comfort.
3. Injection
Using ultra-fine needles, small amounts of Botox are injected into targeted forehead muscles. The process takes only 10–15 minutes.
4. Post-Treatment
You can return to normal activities immediately — just avoid touching or rubbing your forehead for the rest of the day.
Results Timeline
You’ll start noticing smoother skin within 3–5 days, with full results visible around two weeks after treatment.
Your forehead will appear naturally relaxed, not frozen or overdone.
Results typically last 3–4 months, and consistent sessions can train your muscles to move less aggressively, making wrinkles even less noticeable over time.
How Many Units of Botox for Forehead Wrinkles?
The number of Botox units depends on your age, muscle strength, and wrinkle depth.
On average:
- Mild wrinkles: 8–12 units
- Moderate wrinkles: 15–20 units
- Deep wrinkles: 20–30 units
Our experienced injectors ensure precision and balance to maintain your natural facial expressions.
