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 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.
