Beware of fillers for forehead lines

               Several cases have been reported connecting the use of fillers such

as hyaluronic acid (botox is not a filler) with subsequent vision problems

in patients including blindness.


             The mechanism of action appears to be embolization (spread)

of the filler particles via the rich forehead blood supply to the opthalmic

and retinal blood vessels feeding the eye(s)


            Also,keep in mind that  wrinkle fillers such as hyaluronic acid are

not  FDA approved for forehead lines.
