I had a botox brow lift a week ago. My doctor said it could take up to a week to see any change, but I have not had any improvement. Is there a possibility that it is not going to work? I see my doctor again in 2 weeks. I am just so discouraged. He says I really need a surgical/endoscopic brow lift with blephoraplasty, but I did this to hopefully hold off on the surgery.
Answer: Botox brow lift Hello! Botox can take 10-14 days for maximum effect. However, Botox will only allow the brow to lift 2-3mm tops, and is not a replacement for a browlift. It is worthwhile to give it more time, but understand that surgical results are only achieved with surgery. Good luck!

Answer: Botox Brow Lift -- takes 2 weeks to see outcome! This is tough to tell without pictures. It can still be too soon to tell what your results will be. It can take 1-2 weeks for final results with Botox. It may be that more filler is needed in a different area, or a brow lift should be considered. Give it some more time and contact your doctor. if you're unhappy with your results to discuss next steps. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Browlift with Botox Botox relaxes muscles. If we relax muscles that are pulling the brow down, then we can cause a brow lift. The problem is, not everyone has tension or pull in those muscles. As such, not everyone gets a brow lift with Botox. The only way to see if you will get a brow lift with Botox is to try it. If you don't get a lift, consider Ultherapy for a non-surgical solution. Virtually everyone gets at least a minor browlift with Ultherapy and there is absolutely no downtime. If you have a very experienced injector, filler can be used to create a browlift by volumetrically enhancing the brow and the forehead. The result will be temporary, but it does work. If you want more than that, surgery is the only other option.Andrew Campbell, M.D.Facial Rejuvenation SpecialistQuintessa Aesthetic Centers

Answer: Botox Brow Lift works most of the time To lift a brow with Botox, a doctor targets muscles that pull the eyebrow down and doesn't target the muscles that pull it up (forehead). It is dose dependent, so some patients need more underneath the brow to get a lift. If the forehead is overtreated you won't get much of a lift. When done properly, 2-4 mm lift is the average result.

Answer: I had a Botox brow lift a week ago and I have not seen any change. Is there a possibility it won't work? Thank you for sharing your excellent question. Botox results take upwards of 10-14 days to reach maximum effect, so best to allow your results time to mature over a few more days. That said, Botox brow lifts are not as reliable as other areas of treatment and if your eyebrow sagging or upper eyelid skin is extensive, Botox may not work at all. In this instance a surgical eyelid lift and brow lift may be a better option. Hope this helps.
