The inner half of my eyebrows are pushed down, my eyelids are hidden and my eyes appear to be squinted. Called the MD and they said, "You only had 18 units! Nothing that can be done to lift your brows." I will not be going back there. I thought maybe other muscles could be injected to offset this. I called a plastic surgeon and even the person there sounded doubtful but reluctantly made me an appt. Is there anything that can be done to lift the portion of my eyebrows that are pushed down?

Answer: Botox and low forehead It appears as if a little too much Botox was injected somewhat low which caused your eyebrows to move down. It will wear off in a few weeks but there is nothing to do right now. Please consult an experienced board certified dermatologist with years of experience with Botox and cosmetic injections. Best, Dr. Green

Answer: Botox brows Thank you for your question. It appears as though you had quite a bit of Botox injected into your forehead. Typically we use about half the amount of units you had injected as the frontalis muscle is a very thin muscle that does not require a lot of botox. The options are to wait it out as the botox will be metabolized in a few months (there is no way to reverse botox - which is typically why it is better to go conservative and add more at a touchup, a week or two after the initial injection) or try to counteract the muscles that are being affected by injecting the glabellar complex which would include the glabella and depressor supercilii.
