Forehead Recontouring Using Calcium Hydroxylapatite

Perhaps because it is technically more challenging than in other facial areas, volume reconstitution of the forehead (recontouring) is not frequently discussed in clinical literature reporting successes in recontouring the face. Instead, nonsurgical forehead rejuvenation is mainly limited to wrinkle filling and neurotoxin chemical denervation of the frontalis muscle. Caution is warranted in the prolonged use of neurotoxins, because excessive and persistent chemical denervation of the frontalis muscle can lead to brow ptosis, muscle atrophy, and potential skeletonization of this region.
