Can I use Botox for straighter eyebrows?

Injecting Botox into Orbicularis oculi and Corrugator superciliimuscles will lower the outer part of the eyebrow and will make your eyebrow look straighter.

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetics provider at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. Yes, Botox can be used strategically to soften a high arch and create a more straight-set brow. This approach requires very precise placement and should be performed by an experienced injector. I always recommend scheduling a consultation beforehand to ensure the injector understands your goals and is the right fit for you.

Hi there,

Great question — yes, Botox can absolutely be used to subtly reshape the eyebrows, including softening a high arch and creating a straighter, more balanced brow position.

Here’s how it works:

How Botox Can Help:
Botox works by relaxing specific muscles that pull on the brows. By carefully targeting certain areas:

We can relax the outer brow elevators (like the lateral fibers of the frontalis muscle) to soften or slightly drop the arch.

At the same time, we can relax the muscles that pull the inner brow downward (such as the corrugators and procerus) — this allows the inner part of the brow to lift subtly.

This technique requires precise placement to achieve your desired shape without over-relaxing muscles, which could cause an unnatural result.

Important Considerations:
Results are temporary, lasting around 3–4 months.

Every face is different — a personalized assessment is crucial to map out your unique muscle movements and brow anatomy.

It may take a few treatment cycles to fine-tune your desired shape, especially if you’re transitioning from a naturally high-arched brow.

Yes, Botox can help you achieve a straighter brow shape by adjusting muscle dynamics. It's a popular, non-surgical approach to brow reshaping when done by an experienced injector. I'd be happy to evaluate your brows and create a custom treatment plan for you.

Hello and thank you for your question. To fully address your concerns, a detailed history and physical examination would be prudent. Botox is an extremely useful tool for altering the appearance of various areas of the face. While it may be possible to achieve the desired result you are seeking, a consultation with an experiencing facial plastic surgeon or nurse injector may be of benefit to you.

Hi, It is better for you to consult with your facial plastic surgeon who can examine you and give you opinion based on examination. Yes it can achieve that.

Botox is a wonderful product that I have been injecting for cosmetic purposes since 1991. Appropriately placed microdroplets in the lateral portion of the forehead muscles can help to lower a raised the outer arch of the eyebrows and proper treatment of the glabella region can help to elevate the central portion of the eyebrow--the result straighter eyebrows. You would be wise to consult with a board certified cosmetic dermatologist injector expert.

Hello,
Yes, Botox can be used to help adjust the shape of your eyebrows and achieve a straighter appearance by relaxing specific muscles. To lower the outer arch and lift the inner corners, your provider would strategically inject small amounts of Botox into certain areas around the eyebrow.
Here’s how it works:
Lowering the Outer Arch: By injecting Botox in targeted spots beneath the outer eyebrow, it can relax the muscles that typically pull it up, causing the arch to soften or "drop."
Lifting the Inner Corners: Similarly, Botox can be injected into areas that help lift the inner part of the brows, giving a straighter brow line overall.
To ensure a balanced and natural look, it’s essential to see a provider who has experience in facial aesthetics, as the injections need to be very precise for this effect. Keep in mind that results can vary depending on individual muscle anatomy, and it may take a few days to a week for the full effect to set in.
Best of luck!

Hello thank you for the consultation. So you can use botox to straighten the eyebrow more by relaxing the frontalis muscle 1 unit each side. I would not inject around medial canthus...

Botox and all neurotoxin products can definitely be used to shape the brow. The key lies in identifying which muscles are involved in animating the eyebrows. The corrugator and orbicularis muscles are mainly involved in lowering of the brow and the frontalis muscle in lifting the brow. Working with these muscles as a pulley system, balancing and dosing accordingly, one can shape the brow quite effectively. Start with a consultation with your aesthetic practitioner and they would be able to identify the best injection points for you and advise on the costs.
