Getting old is a good problem to be have, IMHO.

I had forehead wrinkles my entire life, but by 40 they were deep furrows. Botox made only a slight difference since my hooded eyes limited where and how much I could have it done. I needed an actual brow lift to see results. It looks great.

Sometimes you can spend a lot of money avoiding surgery that would be better spent on the surgery to actually fix the problem.

Wears off in 2.5 months for me but I have a high metabolism. I've tried all the brands.

It won’t slow down the aging process. It wears off and you have to do it again and again and again.

I have done multiple microneedling and chem peels and the only thing that erases my forehead wrinkles is botox.

^ can't!

You can fix forehead wrinkles with anything but botox. They are connected to your anatomy and too fixed. Botox is great!

Peels and lasers can resurface and improve texture, but will not touch forehead wrinkles.

Botox or something similar is the only thing that will work well at preventing the wrinkles from getting worse and actually reducing them. If you are concerned about looking frozen, get a light amount of it where you are not completely paralyzing facial muscles just lessening the movement.

There's really not much more than botox (or dysport or xeoman) or a facelift to make a noticeable difference. A good injector will keep it natural. As someone said above, do not go to a medspa.

I am closing in on 50, and the forehead wrinkles are becoming more and more noticeable. I currently use some pretty decent skincare - tretinoin, vit c serum, hylauronic acid, even a red light face mask. The wrinkles however are just to the point where I’m wanting to try something that will give me better results.

What treatments / procedures have given you good/bad/unexpected results. I’m not interested in Botox or surgery. Thinking more along the lines of peels and lasers at this point.

And, if you have anywhere to recommend going to that is in Montgomery county/DC metro even better! Thanks!
