Botox is Not Working To Lift My Brows, and My Outer Eyebrows Are Frozen

Thank you for your question. Shaping the brows is one my favorite parts of using Botox. It requires a very detailed understanding of the underlying anatomy as well as assessing each individual while they are animating their brows. By carefully placing Botox in the muscles that depress the brow, you can cause the brow to rest and relax in a lifted position. There are limits to how much you can lift, and for some surgery is better option. Incorrect assessment or placement can also lead to the reverse effect, so overall technique is critical. You can also shape the brow different. For example, you can raise the tail of the brow vs creating a raised arched brow vs creating a raised horizontal brow. It depends on the individual's desired brow aesthetic goals. I would consider this a very advanced technique so I would query your injector on their experience in this area. An in person assessment would help to discover why you cannot reproduce your first result.  It would be assessing the dynamic movements of your brow.  I would recommend visiting with an experienced injector in your area.

Without examining you it is impossible to say what is the cause of your eyebrow changes.  Possibly, the filler is not all dissolved by hyaluronidase, and the weight of the filler is restricting some motion.

The location or placement of your last several Botox injections may be causing this problem.  Your description seems consistent with being injected too high on the lateral (sides) of the forehead that would then cause the appearance that you described when lfiting your forehead.  Injecting here is not how a lateral brow lift is achieved. 

We would suggest telling your story to a new injector to see if this provides a better outcome.

Look at my microdroplet method described on my website.  Encourage your doctor to read about this method and do this treatment for you.  This will make a profound difference for you.

If your brows are not moving after Botox, then the muscle responsible for lifting the brows (the frontalis muscle) has been paralyzed by Botox (This is if you can easily move your eyebrows with your hand and they are not stuck down to the bone). I would suggest considering letting everything wear off as the placement of the Botox is incorrect causing "frozen eyebrows". Try again to get the Botox brow lift that you like, and I recommend having a qualified professional administer the Botox so that you get the desired result you seek
