Can Botox Fix Too High Eyebrows After Brow Lift?

I have long face so one of the things I did was to lower my hairline with brow lift. I still don't have a small forehead, but eventually plan to transplant some hair another cm or 2 over the scar line.

Anyway, I think the slightly higher brow is unnatural. I see a models/actresses with low sexy brows. I want brows like Angelina Jolie, have them start low, go on a sharp slant to a point like a bat wing. I don't want to look surprised any more, want that brooding pensive look. Anyone to see in metro NY?

High eyebrows and Botox

After a brow lift, you will be tighter for a while. You didn't mention when the surgery was done; if the brow lift was less than a few months ago, there will be continued stretching of the skin and the eyebrows will drop more. Regardless, the use of Botox could be an excellent temporizing measure until the brow recedes further. Angulated narrow faces can be made less long by widening, in a subtle fashion, the horizontal component by the use of volumizers / fillers. Temples, cheeks and... more

Hairline lowering with a forehead lift is a bill of goods.

Let's be frank here. With few exceptions, the notion that it is possible to make a cut along the hairline, remove forehead skin to lower the hairline, and leave the hairline scar invisible is a myth. Unfortunately the most adherent believers of this myth are the surgeons who are still messing up hairlines with this procedure. Even if the incision heals perfectly it causes unnatural compression along the hairline. You should know that hairgrafting is a pure art form. Men will travel... more

Hyperelevation of brows after browlift

Hyper-elevation of the brows after a browlift can be treated by injections of Botox that relax the forehead muscle. However this must typically be repeated every three months. We now usually perform browlifts in a hair-sparing fashion and try to elevate the lateral brows more than the central brow area. I believe that our old paradigms of brow elevation are antiquated, as evidenced by a generation of beautiful brooding vampires, many of whom do not have "typical brow aesthetics"... more

Brows, BOTOX, and Brooding

You certainly can try BOTOX for the effect you seek: BOTOX can work to help shape the brows and adjust asymmetry. Careful: wanting to achieve a very specific look may be a bit over-reaching. Be sure you get some good pragmatic advice about your goals.

Lowering high brow

If a brow lift was performed, presumable the frontalis muscle was treated to soften its affect on the brow itself. If the brow was jsut lifted without treating the muscle, then perhaps Botox could help lowering the eyebrows a bit.

Lowering Hairline with REVERSE Forehead Lift raised Eyebrows too Much...

Entire volumes can be written on the family of Brow (Forehead) Lift procedures and how they have evolved since the early 1990's. Your situation highlights one of the problems with this operation - the choice of procedure (and its unwanted side effects) must be carefully matched to the patient's anatomy and aesthetic desires. A REVERSE forehead (Brow) Lift places the incision in the hairline and pulls the scalp forward to narrow the width of the hair free forehead with some lifting of... more

Look At The Whole Face

You are looking at only your eyebrows. Your concern about a long face is valid but you need to balance it out by rounding your chin a little bit. It can be done with Sculptra injections in the area between the chin and the jowls. That will make your face look more balance and not long. For your eyebrows, Botox can bring them down easily.

Botox can change brow position

Depending upon the look you are trying to achieve, botox injections can raise or lower your brow position. That being said you should wait at least six months from your surgical procedure since the brows will naturally descend some. Also, I would look for an experienced injector to help you achieve the look you desire. I hope this information helps.

Yes, but why?

Yes, Botox can certainly drop the brow, but I agree with Dr. Beraka that you are very pretty and I don't see anything wrong with your eyebrows. Best to keep your own beauty rather than emulate what you perceive in someone else.

High forehead an overly corrected brows.

I would agree that you should wait some time for the brow and forehead to relax following the lift. Botulinum toxin can be used to shape the brows as you have suggested.

Botox is one of the option

You have botox injection to relax frontalis muscle to lower the forehad. What kind of forehead lift(endoforehead lift, hair line forehead lift or coronal forehead lift). I have revise same condition with reverse forehead lift and I would suggest to try waiting up to six months and try botox mean while.

Botox can lower the brows after browlift.

Hi. Overly raised eyebrows after brow lift is unfortunately not rare, and raising the brows can make the face look longer. But you look quite good! I would wait six months after surgery, because there is usually a little natural drop. Then you can try Botox.

Botox can lower the eyebrows

Yes, Botox injection in the forehead especially above the brows can lower them. Botox can also shape the brows somewhat but this effect is less predictable.
