BOTOX® BROW LIFT

RAISE YOUR EYEBROWS WITH A POPULAR NEUROMODULATOR FOR NEWTON AND THE BOSTON AREA

Aging can cause muscles in the face—such as the muscles that lift the eyelids—to weaken over time and the eyelids to droop. This can create a tired or angry appearance that may not reflect how you feel inside. Although we may think of a “brow lift” as an invasive cosmetic procedure that requires preparation and recovery time, there’s also a non-surgical, temporary option that offers beautiful results. A BOTOX ^® brow lift at the Boston area’s Dr. Happe Medical Aesthetics is a minimally invasive treatment for lifting the eyebrows and making the eyes look more open— with little to no downtime needed after.

WHAT IS A BOTOX^® BROW LIFT?

Although BOTOX^® is known for being a treatment for reducing facial wrinkles, it can also improve the shape and position of the brows. This injectable contains botulinum toxin type A as its primary active ingredient. When searching for “BOTOX^® brow lift near me” you may find plenty of information about this treatment, but be unsure what is true or false. Always talk to a trusted and qualified injector to be sure you get accurate information—including results and cost—that maximizes your safety!

A BOTOX^® brow lift helps to improve the balance of the muscles in the face. It essentially works by relaxing the facial muscles that pull the brows down so that the lifting muscles can elevate them. On average, a BOTOX^® brow lift can elevate the eyebrows by one to three millimeters—which sounds like just a little, but small changes can have a big impact on the face (learn how before-and-after photos can help to visualize this). BOTOX^® brow lift injections are ideal for those who want a non-surgical, minimally invasive method of lifting the eyebrows.

Hooded eyes can develop due to drooping eyebrows that are caused by weakened or stretched facial muscles, which can create an aged or tired appearance as well while making the eyes look smaller. A BOTOX^® brow lift for hooded eyes involves providing a subtle lift to the eyebrows to open the eyes, making them look more awake and refreshed.

WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE FOR A BOTOX^® BROW LIFT?

BOTOX^® brow lift injections are performed in a relatively simple and straightforward procedure that’s completed in just a few minutes. Multiple injections of BOTOX^® are made around the eyes and/or high on the forehead. To prepare for a BOTOX^® brow lift, you’ll need to stop taking blood thinning medications in the days leading up to your appointment. Most patients only experience minimal discomfort from a BOTOX^® brow lift, and the effects are temporary. The results for a BOTOX^® brow lift will be visible in just a few days and last for three to four months on average.

WHAT ELSE CAN BOTOX^® TREAT?

Forehead BOTOX^® , jawline BOTOX^® , and face slimming BOTOX^® are also available, as is a “Nefertiti lift” that focuses on the neck or trapezius injections that target the neck and shoulders. BOTOX^® can be used for targeting many cosmetic concerns or signs of aging, such as moderate to severe forehead wrinkles, glabellar lines, crow’s feet or smile lines, fine lines above the lips, a square jaw, drooping eyebrows, hooded eyelids (via an “eye lift“), wrinkles or “jelly rolls” below the eyes, a gummy smile, pronounced neck bands, the outer sides of the nostrils, chin dimpling, and downturned corners of the lips. In addition to addressing these cosmetic issues via various injection sites once they appear, it can also be used as a preventative measure.

Patients who deal with migraines or chronic strong headaches, as well as jaw clenching, may find relief with BOTOX^® injections. It can also help to reduce hyperhidrosis, also known as excessive sweating in the armpits, feet, and more.

WHAT IS BROW LIFT FILLER?

Certain types of facial fillers can be added to the temples as a way of temporarily lifting the brows, since the droopiness can also sometimes be caused by a loss of structural support.

WHICH ANTI-AGING COSMETIC TREATMENTS ARE AVAILABLE BEYOND A BOTOX^® BROW LIFT?

Many patients want to know about the difference between the wrinkle relaxers Dysport® and BOTOX®, which work in much the same way. Another option to consider: Dermal fillers from Dr. Happe Medical Aesthetics are injectable hyaluronic acid gels that are a popular option for minimizing static wrinkles, especially those on the center and lower areas of the face. Opus Plasma^® resurfacing is a great alternative for providing a brow lift and eyelid lift in addition to treating fine lines and wrinkles.

Along with “bunny lines BOTOX^® ,” patients who want to address bunny lines on the face may want to consider skin rejuvenation procedures such as chemical peels and microneedling that help maintain a youthful appearance and vibrant skin. Ingredients such as retinol and applying SPF to the sides of the nose can also help to minimize these wrinkles.
