Hyaluronic Acid for the Forehead—Frequently Asked Questions

Forehead hyaluronic acid treatment is a procedure in which hyaluronic acid is injected into the forehead to create a natural roundness and three-dimensional appearance.

This treatment is ideal for those whose foreheads appear flat, those concerned about prominent bones or unevenness, and those who feel their foreheads lack roundness. It is also suitable for those who wish to refine the shape of their forehead when viewed from the side.

Hyaluronic acid injections for the forehead are also used to add volume to sunken areas of the forehead and make unevenness and wrinkles less noticeable. However, since the appropriate treatment varies depending on the cause of the wrinkles, a doctor will determine the suitability of the procedure, taking into account other treatment options as well.

At YAYOI CLINIC, we select the appropriate hyaluronic acid product based on the condition of your forehead and your desired results. We use Juvederm Vista® Voluma XC, which makes it easy to achieve a natural, three-dimensional look and rounded contours.

We assess your bone structure, facial features, and desired outcome, and design the shape of your forehead while considering its balance with the rest of your face. We adjust the injection volume and design while evaluating not only the impression from the front but also the balance of your profile.

At YAYOI CLINIC, we perform these procedures with careful consideration of these risks.

The estimated duration is 1.5 to 2 years. However, the duration varies from person to person.
