Skin changes and face??

Was looking in the mirror today and although my forehead is pretty smooth, I do have 2 creases albeit fine ones. I know the skin is supposed to thin and pores supposed to lessen due to the skin not being so thick anymore. Was wondering if that will smooth my forehead a little bit too being on HRT??

I have been thinking of botox the last 5 years, so probably an eventuality but just curious!

I am also realizing that I will constantly be posting questions until I see any changes!! XD Lol the waiting process is exciting only 1 week in so intrigued and slightly impatient  ::)

Yes it will decrease the lines given enough time. I use betamethasone, an topical corticosteroid to decrease hypertrophic scars on the face. My skin is much soft and the creases next to my mouth have early disappeared after a week! You may have trouble getting this as I have problem skin and a derm will not just give them to you and they should only be used for a short period of time. it is for cystic acne.

I also use Retin-A. This will increase skin turnover and is like a long-term chemical peel.
