Traitement des rides du lion et du front

Frown lines, forehead lines and lines around the eyes

How to treat frown lines, forehead wrinkles and wrinkles around the eyes


These wrinkles are expression lines.
They are due to a tonic muscular contraction.
They appear very early in life and become more pronounced with age, but also as a result of external factors (sun, cold, etc.), stress and poor skin hygiene (smoking, dehydration, etc.).

The best known are:

  • The wrinkle of the lion (between the 2 eyebrows), which often gives an upset or scowl
  • Forehead wrinkles, which make you look tired or surprised
  • Wrinkles around the eyes, which give a tired look and reduce the size of the eyes when contracted.

The lion’s wrinkle (between the 2 eyebrows)

It’s the most well-known, and the one that bothers women and men the most, especially in today’s world where appearance is so important and photos are so easily circulated on social networks.

Why deal with it:

It gives a frowning, upset expression.
It can even give headaches to people who contract it all the time because of their profession.

Forehead wrinkles

Caused by contraction of the forehead muscle, over time they form a series of waves on the forehead.
The forehead muscle enables us to raise our eyebrows.
This is why for some people with a small forehead, reducing the contraction of the forehead muscle may not be recommended, especially with the natural sagging of the skin that accompanies ageing.

Why treat them:

They give a surprised, sad and tired look.

How to relax these expression lines:

The basis of the treatment is to reduce the muscular contraction that causes these wrinkles.
It is very important to achieve a harmonious and very natural effect.

Crow’s feet wrinkles

These are expression lines around the eyes.
The skin in this area is very thin, so they appear very early in life. Women often interpret them as the first signs of aging. People who work outdoors and have light-coloured eyes will tend to permanently crease their eyes, accentuating these wrinkles.
Over time, these wrinkles will lead to a reduction in the opening of the eyes and, over time, form a crease around the eyes that can also extend to the cheekbones.

Why treat them:

They give a tired look and diminish the expression of the eyes.

How to relax those wrinkles:

The basis of the treatment is to reduce the muscle contraction that causes these wrinkles. It’s very important to achieve a harmonious, very natural effect in this area. The solution of choice is botulinum toxin. In our centers, we use Vistabel ®, the 1st toxin to be marketed.
