Can't achieve straight brows though Botox. Other options? (Photo)

geoff345Jan 23, 2015
Hi I am a 20 year old male from Australia. I have always disliked the angle my eyebrows are and would prefer a straight style aka. picture 2. I have tried multiply times to get botox injections to solve it to no avail. Is there a surgical procedure that could achieve such a result.it takes very little effort to move the brow ( just feels like loose skin ) My eyebrows naturally join in the middle as well. Thanks. also what would be the name of the procedure and a rough cost bracket.

Thank you for your question. What you have described is very rare and mostly likely the needle hit a sensory nerve. There is no need to worry as there is no long term effect. The nerve most likely has a small bruise on it and will take some time to heal. I recommend following up with injector...

Thank you for your question. Usually it takes about 2 weeks for the Botox to settle in, so it could be the muscle just settleing in. I would recommend a follow up with your provider. I hope this helps!
