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 muscle contraction.
They appear very early in life and will worsen over the years but also with external aggressions (sun, cold …), stress, poor skin hygiene (tobacco, dehydration …).

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.

Forehead wrinkles

Due to the contraction of the frontal muscle, they form a series of waves over the forehead over time.
The frontal muscle allows us to raise our eyebrows.
This is why in some people who have a small forehead, the reduction of the contraction of the frontal muscle may not be recommended, especially with the natural sagging skin that accompanies aging.

The skin in this area is very thin, so they will appear very early in life. Women often interpret them as the first signs of aging. People who work outdoors and have light-colored eyes will tend to permanently squint, accentuating these wrinkles.
Over time, they will lead to a narrowing of the ocular aperture and, over time, form a wrinkle around the eyes that may also extend to the cheekbones.

Why treat them:

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