I have recently (less than a year) developed two short horizontal lines. Less than a 1/2" each. Is that how it starts and they get longer? I assumed a long line would slowly start to emerge and get more prominent over time. I can't feel them with my finger like I can feel the vertical #1 between my eyebrows.
How old are you, @monicakm ?

@monicakm - Since you didn't ask how to get rid of forehead lines nor did you ask for opinions on how you should just accept the aging process, I will try and answer your actual question. Which was - HOW do forehead lines develop. I don't have them but from my observation of friends and my DD, I would say they start by going all the way across - as you stated a long line emerging and gets more prominent over time. I have also seen shorter ones on the outer edge of the forehead above the eyes.

I noticed my forehead lines when I lost all my hair due to chemo and wore head scaves and hats---but after my hair grew back , they were not as noticeable because I had hair again. I still have them of course.and have 11 lines between my eye brows too.

My 68 year old body wears all of my wrinkles and lines proudly.

In the past I had a derm do laser skin tightening and resurfacing but that was a long time ago so now I use the microneedle to get smooth skin.
@SilleeMee I do microneedling too, with the device I got from QVC. While I am not free of wrinkles, I do think it has helped.

Is that the one from BeautyBio? Those microneedles are kind of short and really don't do a thorough enough job of reducing wrinkles. The needles on a microneedle device need to be at least 0.5mm in length and BeautyBio needles are 0.3mm plus there are a lot of them on a roller which means they don't penetrate as deep as 0.3 but somewhere closer to half that b/c of the needle count on the roller. I know, that's technical but I've been at this needling thing for a very long time to know what it all means.

I have been going to an esthetician for microneedling for about a year and a half. What that has helped me with is it is fading the sun damage and texture problems on my skin. Lines and wrinkles are still there but smoothed out a bit. Never going to have perfect flawless skin but I have found that that helps. Oddly enough, the microneedling has smoothed out my eye area and crows feet, which I used to feel was my main area of concern. Microneedling helped with forehead lines a bit but mine are still there. Is that what they call expression lines?

Thank you but that's not something I think I could do. Pain threshold is -10 on a good day I was just confused and wondering about their development. I don't know if these short lines are going to expand across my forehead or what.
