What do forehead wrinkles mean?
We have all seen one on our head at some point.
What does it mean?
As an integrative health coach and holistic esthetician; my main motto is OUR SKIN IS A MESSENGER. I fuel this passion with Dien Chan (facial reflexology), Mian Xiang (TCM face reading) and integrative health knowledge. Let’s dive in….
Consitution and thinking
Forehead lines can represent a person who thinks alot, has a lot on their mind. This can be a positive meaning such as a deep thinker-often shown as deeper, more symmetrical lines. A tendency to worry or a sign of anxiousness can be seen as well-typically more in a disorganized, set of lines, for example varying lengths.
Digestive and internal organ health
In Dien Chan, we see the entire viscera reflected on the forehead, giving us insight to the health of all of our intneral organs.
Digestive issues will show here as well as heart health. You may experience what I call “situational wrinkles”. These show up after you binged on pizza and wine without drinking water, did not get sleep, went through a stressful week. They become much more prominent and then slowly fade. This result is not just from your vitamin c serum - it is a sign of stagnation or flow within the body.
We see in both the forehead and overall skin if there are depletions in vital minerals to skin health such as vitamin C, D or Zinc. A mineral analysis that shows the state of stress the body is in, how it is handling stress, toxic metals and what is being excreted versus used for cellular functions is an easy fix. < click
Stuck Fascia and tight muscles
Our superfical backline of fascia goes from underneath our toes up to our eyebrows. Our superficial front line goes from our jaw down to the top of our toes. Tension anywehre along here can have an impact on your forehead appearance.
As we lean more and more forward and curled up, our forehead is not getting the bloodflow and free range of movement it truly needs and deserves.
Tight temporalis muscles, scalp and jaw muscles will impact your forhead (and eye) aesthetics by pulling and restricting blood flow.
These experiences also lend to habitual use patterns where we utilize muscles for movements in excess or lack. We might find we use our forhead instead of opening our eyes more as an example.
So other than botox, retinol and irritating vitamin C—what can you do?
