Where Should Dysport Be Injected to Raise Eyebrow Corner?

If the corner of the eyebrow is indeed droopy, Dysport can be injected into the area below the tail of the eyebrow.  This will relax the muscle that pulls the tail of the eyebrow down and sometimes you can get 1-3mm of elevation.  The key fact here with Dysport, Botox, or any other procedure is to make sure the position of the eyebrow is aesthetic (many differences between male and female brows) and you're not simply doing a technique that someone just learned at a... more

To raise or lower, that is the question

Decide if you prefer to raise the lower brow, or lower the higher eyebrow. If you want to try and raise the lower eyebrow, the medicine is injected just below the eyebrow itself, laterally. Each person is slightly different and upon examination your doctor will be able to advise you. Do not try to perform this procedure on yourself!

Where to inject

To get an elevation of the lateral part of the brow, you need to weaken the depressor muscles and leave the elevators intact, so you would need to inject the upper crow’s foot and place nothing in the forehead above the brow.

Botox or Dysport to raise the eyebrows

To raise the lateral (outside) part of the eyebrows, one injects a tiny amount of Dysport or Botox just under the tail (outer) end of the eyebrow. For the medial (inner) part of the eyebrow, one injects on the root of the nose (just between the eyes).

Pharmacologic eyebrow lift

A mild lift of the outer part of the brow can be achieved through the placement of Dysport or Botox in the musculature that pulls down this part of the brow, assuming you are having no other injections placed in your upper face.  Typically this placement is near the outer part of your eyebrow, but it would have to be custom tailored for your particular brow shape, musculature pattern, and orbital bony rim shape to give the maximal effect.

Dysport for eyebrow drooping

Sometimes dysport or botox is injected just under the lateral eyebrow to neutralize the orbicularis muscle ring so that the brow can raise a bit.

Using Dysport for a brow lift

Dysport is a close relative of Botox that is now available in the United States through Medicis. Like Botox, Dysport may be used to contour the face by relaxing the deeper facial muscles. These muscles are usually in the upper portion of the face. When applied appropriately, Dysport may relax the muscles that pull your brow down and cause a pleasing brow lift. Patients appreciate this rejuvenated look. Your best bet is to work with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has a great deal... more

Using Dysport to raise the corner of the eyebrow

Crows' feet wrinkles are caused by contraction of the orbicularis oculi muscle, which causes "squinting." Injection of Dysport just below the tail (outer corner) of the eyebrow will weaken the downward pull of the muscle, frequently resulting in a subtle lift of the tail of the eyebrow.

Dysport chemical brow lift

The ability ot lift an anatomic area is a balance between forces that may pull up or pull down the anatomy. The outer eyebrow is elevated by the forehead nuscles but pulled down by the eyelid muscles: look in the mirror and squint forcibly with one eye, you will see the eyebrow move down. By injectiig the outer eyelid muscles just below the eyebrow (in the crow's feet area), you will allow the eyebrow to be lifted by the forehead (frontalis) muscles.

Injections to the eyebrow

This off label use (not approved by the FDA; but, used legally by physicians in the U.S. for this condition) involves the placement of the Botulinum toxin in the muscle of the eyelid area towards the tail of the eyebrow and right below it, but outside the bony rim of the eye socket.

Dysport to raise eyebrows

The specific location to inject dysport to raise the lateral eyebrow, depends on the activity of the muscles around your eye that move your brow and allow you to squeeze your eye shut, as well as raise your eyebrows and furrow your forehead. Best to visit with an experienced, provider to discuss your specific goals before you proceed with your injections. Good Luck!

Make the other Eyebrow Droop

Sometimes it is easier to make the higher eyebrow lower. It is impossible to tell you were to inject as each person has a different muscular make up of their own facial muscles. Dysport and Botox work nice for facial muscular expression. It is truly and exciting time to be thinking baout enhancing your appearance.

It is possible

If one injects the fine circular muscles that surround the eyelid at the right spot, you can get a 1 to 2 mm lifting of the corner of the eyebrow laterally. Imagine that the eye is a face of a clock and on the right side one injects at about 10 o'clock and at about 2 o'clock on the left. At this point the circular muscle is pulling the lateral brow downward. Go to a plastic surgeon or dermatologist for best results with this technique.

Dysport for Eyebrows

I agree - everyone is slightly different in their anatomy. Typical areas of injection of Dysport or Botox include the glabella (between the eyebrows) to reduce frown lines, in the forehead to reduce transverse lines, and the crow's feet area to smooth the lines. Injecting in the crow's feet area also has a lateral brow "lifting" effect. Good luck with your injections.

Your board certified doctor will know where to place it

Since everyone's anatomy is different, there is no cookie cutter formula for the placement of Dysport. For that reason, it is imperative that you go to a good doctor. My recommendations? Find a board certified dermatologist or other core aesthetic physician (like a plastic surgeon or opthalmologist). Make sure he/she has lots of before and after photos to show you the work done on other, similar patients. Make sure all your questions and concerns and your desire for correction are all... more
