Our methods for wrinkle treatment and fillers
To achieve a genuine, sustainable and medically safe result in this sensitive area, the demands placed on materials and technology are extremely high.
Muscle relaxant injections
Injecting the medication into the forehead effectively reduces muscle activity. Treating both the forehead and the frown line at the same time is standard clinical practice. This creates a harmonious and proportionate result and prevents other muscles from compensating.
Volume enhancement with fillers
If the wrinkles have formed a deep, static crease on the forehead that is visible even when the face is completely relaxed, we can supplement the treatment with hyaluronic acid. A filler in a forehead wrinkle or frown line acts as a structural support that literally lifts the crease from within.
Anatomical knowledge and gentle techniques
The area around the forehead has a complex network of blood vessels. Our specialists have an in-depth understanding of anatomy, which is absolutely essential for gentle and safe treatment.
A clinic full of expertise
Treating the area around the eyes and forehead places extremely high demands on the treating specialist’s anatomical knowledge. The forehead has a complex network of blood vessels, and our specialists have an in-depth understanding of these structures.
Price for forehead wrinkle treatment
Before a procedure, the cost of treating forehead wrinkles and frown lines is often a key concern for our patients. The exact cost is always determined during your personal consultation, as it depends on how many areas of your facial muscles require treatment.

Pre-treatment consultation
The first step is a detailed consultation with one of our qualified specialists. We will assess your muscle strength (when you are asked to furrow your brow) and the elasticity of your skin. You will be given clinical information about the risks associated with the treatment, the expected results and aftercare.
After the consultation, you have a statutory cooling-off period of at least 48 hours (which applies to aesthetic injection treatments) to allow you to decide in your own time whether you wish to give your consent.
Step-by-step treatment for forehead wrinkles
Step by step
To ensure you feel completely at ease and know exactly what to expect, we have a strict and safe process in place for our muscle-relaxing treatments
Consultation
Medical assessment and choice of method
Your practitioner will carry out a thorough clinical assessment of your muscle activity around the forehead and glabella. We will go through your health declaration and discuss your expectations.
Preparations
Preparations for safe treatment
Preparations on the day of treatment: The skin is cleansed and disinfected extremely thoroughly with chlorhexidine to ensure a sterile working area. We identify specific injection points that are fully tailored to your unique facial expressions.
The treatment
Safe care at the clinic
The treatment involves using a microscopically thin needle to inject small, precise doses directly into the muscle. The treatment takes around 15 minutes. Filler treatments often involve using a blunt cannula deep beneath the skin.
Recovery & healing
Self-care and convalescence guidelines
Avoid touching the injection sites with unwashed hands, do not wear make-up for 12 hours, and refrain from strenuous exercise, sauna sessions and exposure to extreme cold for the first 48 hours to minimise the risk of swelling. It is particularly important not to massage your forehead and not to lie flat for the first 4 hours after the injection to prevent the substance from spreading.
Monitoring & results
Medical check-up and final assessment
We always offer a voluntary follow-up appointment after 14 days to ensure that your muscles have responded symmetrically and that you are happy with the results.
Our specialists in injections
Treating the forehead is complex because the frontalis muscle is the only muscle that raises the eyebrows. Many patients who visit us have had unsuccessful forehead wrinkle treatments carried out by others, usually unqualified practitioners. At The Faculty, we take extremely strict measures to minimise these risks. Treatments are carried out exclusively by registered doctors and injection nurses who understand exactly how the muscles interact, and we always use conservative dosages to preserve the face’s natural expressions and avoid a stiff or heavy feeling.
Who can undergo the treatment?
To undergo medical injection treatments, you must be over 18 years of age, in good health and generally well. We do not treat women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. The ideal candidate is someone who is experiencing a loss of volume, has prominent blood vessels or very thin skin on their hands. Prior to treatment, we will assess your medical history to rule out any autoimmune diseases or active skin infections that could affect the procedure.

At The Faculty, medical expertise meets a welcoming atmosphere. At Hangövägen 20, you will find our custom-built clinic, designed to meet strict clinical standards for hygiene and safety.

Payment guarantee and insurance

For your peace of mind, you are covered by comprehensive patient insurance as well as an extended warranty period during the healing process. For those who wish, we also offer financial guidance regarding installment options—as a flexible choice entirely separate from the medical assessment.
Frequently asked questions about forehead fillers
Here we have compiled some frequently asked questions about forehead wrinkles
How long does a muscle-relaxing treatment on the forehead last?
The duration varies from person to person, but the muscle-relaxing effect generally lasts between 3 and 5 months. The body then breaks down the substance naturally.
When will the results of the treatment be visible?
The very first signs that the muscles are beginning to relax become apparent after 3 to 5 days. The full results can only be assessed after two weeks.
Can you use a frown line patch instead?
A wrinkle patch may provide a very short-lived, temporary lifting effect overnight, but it cannot be compared to a medical procedure that treats the root cause – the muscle activity beneath the skin.
How can I avoid a heavy forehead after the treatment?
By consulting an anatomically knowledgeable and qualified practitioner who adjusts the dosage and selects the correct points, the risk of heavy eyebrows or drooping eyelids is drastically reduced.
Can fillers be used for forehead wrinkles?
Yes. If the wrinkles are deep and static (visible when the muscle is relaxed), a filler may be needed to fill out the skin fold from within and create a smoother surface. Sometimes both techniques are combined.
Is it common to have a manicure?
It is a very common and popular treatment, but often receives less attention than facials. Many people place great importance on looking after their face, only to realise later that their hands (wrinkled hands) do not match the rejuvenated appearance of their face.
Can you massage your hands yourself after the treatment?
Immediately after the treatment, your injection specialist will massage your hands to ensure the product is distributed evenly. We recommend that you avoid pressing or massaging the area firmly yourself for the first few days, to allow the filler to settle exactly where it has been medically administered.
