Forehead Lines in Streatham & Sydenham
Smooth dynamic wrinkles with a tailored, doctor-led forehead lines treatment plan at Dr Mirali Aesthetics. We provide options in Streatham and Sydenham, carefully combining modalities—such as wrinkle-relaxing injections (POM; suitability assessed in consultation), skin boosters, microneedling, polynucleotides and medical skincare/peels—to soften horizontal forehead lines while maintaining natural expression. Your plan is designed by a GMC-registered doctor around your anatomy, skin quality and goals, with clear aftercare and realistic timelines at our trusted South London clinics.
(UK compliance note: we don’t promote prescription medicines by name; suitability is confirmed during a medical consultation.)

What causes Forehead Lines?
Forehead lines form from repeated movement (frontalis muscle), sun exposure, loss of collagen/elastin, and skin dehydration. Effective care usually targets both the muscle activity that creates lines and the skin quality that makes them more visible.
Common tools we may combine
-
Wrinkle-relaxing injections (POM; consultation required) to reduce movement driving lines
-
Skin boosters / Profhilo to improve hydration and elasticity
-
Microneedling to stimulate collagen and refine texture
-
Polynucleotides for regenerative skin quality improvements
-
Gentle peels / medical skincare for tone and smoothness
(Dr Mirali will advise the safest, most suitable combination.)

Frequently Asked Questions
Procedure
The appointment duration is 30 mins. We use very fine needles to administer the Botox into the desired muscle area which are relatively painless and no numbing required.
Duration & Longevity
Optimum results will be experienced within two weeks following the treatment. Botox on average lasts around 3-4 months after which the muscles resume their normal activity.
Downtime
There is no downtime needed and can return to normal activities. You may have small raised blebs on the skin but these settle within 30 mins. Common side effects are slight bruising, mild headache/tenderness in the injection sites but this is all temporary. Post treatment- stay upright for 4-6hours so that botox doesn’t migrate and no facials/massages for 2 weeks.
Common misconceptions
Clients often become concerned with botox and the ‘frozen’ look. I will adjust the dosing appropriate for the type of look the client wants.
Botox treatment is best done preventatively and the most people assume botox should be done when the lines are present at rest. It’s best to start earlier before the lines on the forehead become fixed at rest in order to maintain a smoother youthful appearing skin.
