I'm a young woman,my brows are a a bit too low.I don't want a brow lift b/c of elevation of the hairline and/or long scars.Botox is in the long run just too expensive.As far as I know Botox injected into the lateral part of the eyebrow works by blocking the orbicularis muscle,so the other muscles slightly elevate the brow.I've read that there is a technique which involves making 3mm cuts at the eyebrow to resect this muscle.Wouldn't this give Botox-like permanent results?Does anyone performthis

Obicularis Resection and the Botox Brow Lift Effect

Hi, The brow lift effect from Botox injection is a result of NOT injecting the lateral frontalis muscle with Botox and INJECTING the medial corrugator and procerus muscles. Honestly, you can get this effect by cutting the medial procerus and corrugator muscles and NOT elevating the brow in a endoscopic brow procedure leaving the hairline where it is. I don't think that cutting the obicularis will get the same results. Best. Dr.S.
