Eyebrow lift using botox did not work for me. Is there a possibility that it might work if I tried again?

Thank you for your question, and I'm sorry you didn't get the result you were hoping for.  Lifting of the tail of the brow can only be achieved with the proper technique.  Conversely, if proper technique is not employed, results such as yours are, unfortunately, common.  In young women, typically 6-8 units per side is injected into 3 points - 2 just on the underside of the tail of the brow, and one just next to the outside corner of the eye.  Done correctly, this will produce a few millimeters of lift on the tail of the brow.  I'd recommend seeking out a qualified physician who is experienced with this technique. Good luck to you.

Botox can lift your eyebrows if injected correctly. From what you described, it sounds like your injector did not target the correct muscles to give you the desired result. A detailed understanding of facial anatomy is important. You should definitely try it again because surgery is a much more costly option, but please choose a different injector that has a better understanding of what's happening with your face.Take a look at my YouTube channel to watch videos on Botox and see how it's supposed to be injected.

Thanks for your question and sorry that the results you were looking forwas not what you expected. Unfortunately, many will think that the Botox did not work – most likely, and seen many times on RealSelf, it is not the product, but the inexperience of the injector. We recommend that you have these injections done in the offices of a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon or the equivalent in your country. I would change injectors, have the proper consultation, and make sure that you are getting the injections from someone very skilled in using these products.

Botox can work to lift the eyebrow.  If you had it done by someone and it didn't work, I would suggest you try another doctor to inject.  There is a finesse to injecting botox.  How many units were used? where on the face was it injected? to what depth? was it fresh botox?All of these factors can affect if your botox is successful or not.  Again, I would suggest try again with another doctor.  We as plastic surgeons do a lot of surgery around the eye, so I do think we may inject the muscle well as we know what level it is in under the skin. 

You should have the Botox done differently-less in the forehead lines and most of it in the area between the eyes. This should give you the lift you are looking for.

To often, the product is to blame for no or poor results.  Botox is not the same in everyone's hands.  It's a skill and art to get Botox to work like the patient wants it.  I can't see how your brow would drop if the provider was trying to get it to lift.  This should not happen.  Please read my blog below.

The ability to raise or peak the eyebrow needs to be done with great caution and precision.Developing a droopy eyelid is a complication from Botox injections when done incorrectly.Consider a new provider. Look for someone who has great expertise with years of experience.Stay away from bargains or discounts.When seeing a new provider, please bring copies of your medical records from your first or previous treatments.Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.
