Can Dermal Fillers Create a 'Browlift' Effect??

I'm not intested in Botox...too many terrible experiences with it!!! I would like a slight browlift on my lateral brows to get rid of some of the excess lid skin..browlift surgery recommended for my case. Can fillers simulate a browlift? If so, how does this work..ie., what area is it injected, what filler would be used, ? I don't have a lot of forehead wrinkling (yet), just want to open my eyes a little. Also, if filler is still there when I finally want surgery, will it be in the way?

Browlift Effect Possible with Fillers and Botox-But Find an Expert

However please take the time to search for an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has experience with this technique. I have had patients show up in my office with visible lumps of filler under their eyebrow after having this done by a novice doctor.

Exactly where and how much volume needs to be added will depend... more

Dermal Fillers for a Browlift

To an extent, dermal fillers can create a lateral browlift effect. Make up artists often use white eye shadow just below the lateral eyebrow to create the illusion of an elevated brown (for example, in front of a TV camera). We take advantage of this "trick" using fillers. - A little bit of filler strategically placed uner the lateral eyebrow itself can pick up the elevate slack just a bit, which can result in an elevation of the lateral eyebrow (1-3 mm). - When... more

Fillers do not lift-a warning not to give into the hype

There is a great marketing ploy in the U.S. right now for the "non-surgical face lift" or "liquid face lift." There is no such thing. It is misleading and is promoted by non-surgeons who are not trained in performing the necessary procedures. They will take your money and make you look deformed. Some of the marketing will say, "why pay $10,000 for a face lift when you can pay $2000 for the "liquid face lift." It should say "why do... more
