I had Botox in my glabella area. It all looks fine, but when I raise my eyebrows, they stay down near my nose and raise up high with a real arch at the sides, which makes me look kinda scary. My doctor said this is not a problem and can be easily corrected. What caused this? Did he do it wrong or does this happen sometimes? What should I expect? Where will he inject and how much Botox?
Answer: Arching of eyebrows after Botox
The arching of your brows that you are experiencing is a function of the Botox, and can be very easily corrected by your dermatologist. A trained and experienced physician can usually prevent this occurrence by testing your forehead muscles and knowing where precisely to inject, although sometimes just a simple touch up is required and then the physician will know to do this preventatively in the future for you. ~ Dr. Benjamin Barankin, Toronto Dermatology Centre.

Answer: Easy fix for high eyebrow arch from Botox Excessively arched brows after Botox injection are typically very easy to resolve. The so called "Nicholson" brows (referring of course to Jack) are easy to relax - a few units of Botox (probably in the range of 2-4 units) are placed in the upper forehead on both sides and this relaxes the arch and prevents you from raising them up so high. Of course I agree that only an experienced injector should be doing these treatments. Good luck.
