Maximize your beauty
Forehead
Forehead lines are formed by elevating muscles of the forehead (frontalis). The lines can be formed with movement no matter how young we are. However, as skin matures and undergoes changes from sun exposure, environment and lifestyle changes, it loses its elasticity, and lines can be seen even without movement.
- Neuromodulators (BOTOX®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN®) are used to improve the look of fine lines and superficial wrinkles of the forehead. At Marina Lifestyle Medicine, we pay special attention to individual anatomical variations to achieve aesthetically pleasing, natural results.
- Medical-grade skin care with retinoids, Vitamin C and peptides can improve appearance of the skin and fine lines.
- Facials and microdermabrasion (The DiamondGlow™ device) can correct and rejuvenate the area. Microneedling sessions can address fine lines, discoloration, sun damage, texture and pore size. Peels like IV Peel can be used for collagen stimulation. Its targeted formula allows deep penetration to soften fine lines and wrinkles. It can also address pigment and skin tone.
Glabellar Lines, a.k.a the 11s
(frown/ squinting lines)
Glabellar lines are those vertical lines that develop between the eyebrows as a result of frowning, scowling, or focusing while listening or reading. In some people, the muscles that create this movement are strong and create deep creases. Typically, glabellar region muscle can be weakened with wrinkle relaxers like:
- Neuromodulators (BOTOX®, Dysport®, and XEOMIN®) will lead to decreased movement of the muscle and, therefore, reduction or elimination of the crease. This may take multiple sessions, but you can expect results immediately with little to no downtime.
- Dermal filler Restylane® is used to completely eliminate glabellar lines. This may take multiple sessions, but you can expect immediate results with little to no downtime.
- Be proactive by switching your at-home skincare routine to medical-grade skin care with retinoids, Vitamin C, and peptides to improve the appearance of the skin.
