Eyebrow Arches Are Really Pronounced After Botox

Question

hi, i had botox and the results are great other than when i try to lift my eyebrows the only part that lifts is the arch and it very pronounced.. like an inverted V shape!!! can anything be down to relax this? thank you

Otto Joseph Placik, MD · Answer

Pronouced eyebrow arches can be treated with small amounts of Botulinum Toxin (Dysport and Botox) injected to the outer forehead

Ron Shelton, MD · Answer

You describe a situation that should be straight forward to improve. As long as the area that needs further treatment is mid height in the forehead in the vertical line that crosses the eye's position, a few units of Botox should relax that high arch. The physician should not inject the Botox too close to the eyebrow in that vertical plane, otherwise, there may be a drop of the upper eyelid.

Joseph A. Eviatar, MD, FACS · Answer

After BOTOX eyebrow position can change because some muscles may work more while other muscles are relaxed. If it doesn&rsquo;t look natural it can be touched up with BOTOX injections to different areas.

Mary P. Lupo, MD · Answer

Sometimes, certain areas of the frontalis muscle respond more than an adjacent area, resulting in crazy eyebrow shapes. There is a simple fix for this. It should be done between 7-14 days from the treatment and usually requires only 1-4 units of Botox. I have seen this less frequently with Dysport.
