Will my eyebrows go back to normal after Botox?
The eyebrows can start rising even before the full effect of Botox on the forehead wears off. It might take 4-6 weeks, but the eyebrow will be back to it’s normal position for sure. Injecting it laterally in very specific points can help lift the eyebrow without affecting the movement of the eyelids.
Can you do a brow lift with Botox?
Botox is an effective way to smooth out those lines without surgery. A brow lift with Botox involves injecting Botox directly between the brows to relax the muscles underneath. This lets the upper forehead muscles “pull” the eyebrows back up and into their original place, allowing the skin to smooth out.
Why are my eyebrows so high after Botox?
For example, sometimes a peaked eyebrow is seen when only the glabella area is treated with Botox. This relaxes the muscles between the eyebrows. Usually, a small amount of the Botox spreads to the nearby central area of the frontalis muscle. This makes it harder to raise the inner eyebrows.
What causes Spock eyebrows after Botox?
The spock brow typically occurs from neuromodulator use from products such as Botox, Dysport, Xeomin and Jeuveau. A spock brow results when the central forehead is weakened and the outer sides of the forehead are active, causing the central brow to drop and the outer brow to lift too high in comparison.
How much is Botox for eyebrow lift?
How many units does a Botox brow lift take? A Botox brow lift can take 4 to 6 units at the lateral aspect of each eyebrow. Commonly, patients have a vertical frown line at the glabella area which needs treatment and 20 to 25 units of Botox are typically needed there.

Can you use Botox for a brow lift?
Botox can be used strategically to lift the brows temporarily. This works quite well in some patients, but patients with very heavy brows may not see much benefit. Surgical brow lifts are more significant and can also be used to improve the effects of Botox in other areas of the upper face. Both options work well, but patient selection is key.
What to expect with brow lift?

It can also improve your eyesight by lifting eyelids and reducing folding.

Injecting Botox into the muscles that pull the medial ends of the brows down can cause the eyebrows to elevate and lift upwards giving the impression of a lift. Botox relaxes muscles so, if injected in the wrong place, can cause descent of the brow.
