Botox: Q&A

Can I Make my Eyebrows Flat, Instead of Arched Through Botox Injections?
I am a Caucasian pale skinned white male (age 49). I have bushy arched eyebrows (like Ashton Kutcher). The masculine look is horizontal brows. Can Botox do this, or do I run the risk of making my eyelids heavier, I already have slightly heavy eyelids. If yes, what muscle is injected and how many units of Botox or Dysport ?

Botox for brow contouring, bring it up or bring it down

Botox to Contour Eyebrows
Botox when placed lower on the forehead has the effect of slightly dropping the brow, resulting in a more horizontal brow shape.

Flat Eyebrows With Botox
Depending on the initial shape of the brow and frontalis movement, one can place Botulinum toxin A in a distribution that would flatten the brow instead of arch it.

Botox or Dysport to modulate brow position
Botox or Dysport can certainly be used to titrate the position of your brows, but keep in mind that the only way to lower the brow is to reduce the activity of the muscle that elevates the brow (frontalis).
