It happened just the other day. You caught a glimpse of yourself in your car’s rearview mirror and saw them: unmistakable lines across your forehead. At first you reminded yourself to stop squinting in the bright Colorado sun. Then you looked more closely and rubbed your fingertips across your brow. Bright sun or not, there’s no question about it. Those lines are wrinkles, they’re noticeable, and they’re making you look older.
We’re accustomed to thinking that muscle action is good, but in the case of facial muscles there’s another side to the story. Instead of having a desirable effect, facial muscle movement causes wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles, to be exact, like the lines on your forehead. As your muscles respond to your emotions and create facial expressions-such as a worried frown or a look of surprise-the creases they make eventually stay put. Combine repetition over time with your skin’s normal, gradual loss of elasticity and you eventually end up with deep dynamic wrinkles.
At Rejuvenate!, we offer several treatments to greatly reduce or even eliminate your deep forehead creases. To get started, set up an appointment with us today. We’ll work with you to develop a strategy to match your schedule and budget.
A New Wrinkle for Denver Clients: BOTOX® Cosmetic and Beyond
To treat forehead wrinkles, we utilize a comprehensive approach that works inside and out. Some elements improve the skin’s surface layers, renewing youthful skin tone. Others work underneath the surface to address the problems that cause wrinkles to form. This end-to-end method will have you looking like you never had a reason to frown.
- Our first step is to actually prevent muscle action from causing and worsening your forehead creases. For these “dynamic wrinkles,” you have a couple different treatment options: BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport®. Introduced with tiny needles into the facial muscles surrounding your wrinkles, these injectables effectively block the muscles from contracting, relaxing and smoothing your forehead skin over a period of a few days and lasting a few months. You’ll get more information on the differences between BOTOX Cosmetic and Dysport, including which treatment is best for you, during your consultation.
- Once your facial muscles are no longer carving creases ever more deeply into your forehead, a dermal filler, such as JUVÉDERM® in Denver, will plump up your skin from underneath and smooth out remaining wrinkle traces. Also injected with tiny needles underneath the skin, fillers restore a firm foundation and support skin to lie flat and smooth once again. At Rejuvenate! we offer several of the most effective fillers available today. Our staff will recommend the one that best fits your unique needs.
- A chemical peel acts to restore your skin’s fresh, healthy surface by promoting deep skin enhancement. Our formulas-three to choose from-penetrate into the skin to rid it of the top layers of dead, dull cells. Fine wrinkles fade, as do blemishes, acne scars and uneven skin tone.
- Microneedling can minimize wrinkles by renewing collagen production in the skin.
Now that you’ve come face to face with your forehead wrinkles, don’t wait any longer to banish them. Increasingly popular, BOTOX Cosmetic, Dysport, dermal fillers, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion can make a dramatic difference in your looks with just a few short appointments. Each treatment is nearly painless, offers quick results, and causes little time away from your schedule.

How much does Botox generally cost (per unit and total cost)? I’m interested in getting Botox injections on my forehead. I’m especially interested in treating the line between my eyes right above my nose.
Hi Terri,
Botox is $12 per unit regularly, and $11 per unit on Wednesdays. If you have 4 appointments with us (of any kind – injectables, skin care, waxing, lasers, etc) within a 12 month time-frame, you are eligible to be a Rejuvenate Loyalty member, and then Botox is $10.50 per unit any day of the week!
It usually takes 15-20 units to treat the “11’s” between the brows.

Hi. I was wondering how much you charge for Botox? I typically receive 12 to 15 shots 🙂 in my forehead but my nurse is currently out of the office. I’m just curious if you could provide me a ballpark? Thank you so much!
Hi Tracy,
We charge $12 per unit regular price, or $11 per unit on Wednesdays!
