01
Start here — direct answer
What lifts a forehead and softens its lines without surgery, and what does it cost in Busan?
The forehead has one muscle that lifts and two that pull down, and that is the whole problem. The frontalis
raises the brows and, in doing so, folds the forehead into horizontal lines; the frown muscles between the brows and the muscle around the eye pull them down. Relax the frontalis fully with Botox
and the lines go but the brows drop, which is the heavy-lidded look of a careless forehead injection; relax the pullers and dose the frontalis lightly and the lines soften while the brow lifts a little. That arithmetic, done per muscle at ₩16,500 to ₩88,000 per area by brand at Boom Dermatology in Busan, is forehead treatment for most faces under fifty.
When the brow itself has dropped with age, the skin above it is tightened with Shurink
HIFU from ₩66,000 or Oligio
RF ₩495,000, which lift the brow a few millimetres over months, and with threads
to the brow tail when more is needed; a brow that has dropped onto the lid is a surgical brow lift, and we say so. A forehead that is flat or hollow, which makes lines show and the brow look heavy, is reshaped with forehead filler
from ₩88,000 per cc. Deep etched lines that remain at rest get a booster or a light fractional pass after the muscle is quiet. The eye page
covers the hood the brow sits on.

The visit
What happens at a forehead consultation in Seomyeon?
This is how a forehead consultation runs at Boom Dermatology, a skin clinic in Seomyeon, Busan, from the first message to the review.
1
Message first
A daylight photo without make-up and what bothers you. The doctor replies with the plan, the device, the session count and the VAT-included price.
2
Consultation
The problem is read, not assumed: type, depth, skin type, history. The plan and settings go on your record.
3
Cleanse and cool
Make-up off, eye shields on; cooling gel or numbing cream by device.
4
Test pulses, then treatment
A few test pulses where the response can be read, then the session by the doctor.
5
Out the door
Sunscreen before you leave; aftercare by device, written on WhatsApp.
6
Review and rhythm
A photo at two to six weeks sets the interval; a mid-course review decides continue, stop or switch.
How does Boom Dermatology plan a forehead?
Three readings, with you raising your brows and frowning.
Lines, brow or shape?
Raise: lines from the lifter. Frown: the pullers. Relax: where the brow sits and whether the forehead is flat.
Dose the muscles in balance
Light on the frontalis, fuller on the frown and the eye; the brow lifts a little instead of dropping.
Simplest first
Botox before a device, a device before threads, filler for shape, surgery named when the brow is on the lid.

Questions, answered properly
Can Botox fix my forehead lines without making my brows drop?
Yes, if the dose is split correctly: light on the frontalis so the lines soften but it can still lift, fuller on the frown and the outer eye so the muscles that pull the brow down are quieter. The net effect is softer lines and a brow that sits the same or a touch higher. Full-strength forehead Botox alone drops the brow, which is the mistake at the root of most "Botox made me look tired" stories; at Boom Dermatology the forehead is never dosed without the pullers.
What lifts a brow that has fallen: HIFU, RF, threads or surgery?
By degree. A little: Botox to the pullers, which lifts a millimetre or two. More: Shurink or Oligio to tighten the skin above the brow over months. More still: PDO threads to the brow tail for a year. A brow that has dropped onto the lid: a surgical brow lift, which we say and refer.
My forehead is flat and my brow looks heavy. Is filler the answer?
Often, and it surprises people: a flat or hollow forehead makes the brow bone read heavy and the lines show more. A few cc of filler across the forehead restores the curve, the brow reads lighter, and Botox then has less to do. Our Seomyeon skin clinic places it by cannula in the deep plane.
Why do I still have lines after Botox?
Three reasons: the lines are etched into the skin from years of folding and are there at rest, which a quiet muscle softens slowly and a booster or light fractional pass speeds; the dose was too light to be kind to the brow; or it is two weeks too early. Etched lines are the common one, and the answer is Botox plus a skin treatment, not more Botox.
How often, and how long does each last?
Botox every three to four months; Shurink or Oligio every six to twelve; forehead filler every year or more; threads yearly. Most patients at Boom Dermatology in Busan run Botox on a schedule and add a device once or twice a year.
