Am I a good candidate for a botox brow lift? (Photos)

Question

i am 18 and would like to raise my brows maybe and get a more sultry eye( open up hooded eyes). would this look good? i don't want to undergo any surgery but i am okay with fillers and botox. what else could i do to my face to improve? don't mind the photo of me pulling up my brow because i don't know if that would even be what it would look like haha

There is not "botox lift", you can get botox at periorbital area but being so young you'll get a minimal (if any) lift effect, and this effect would last 5-6 months, no more. Fillers only fill, do not produce lifts.My advice is you get a brow lift, but now now... you are too young and likely with a self - esteem issue temporarily ongoing, there is no reason for you to get a brow lift.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

As we age, our eyelids naturally sag and droop. A combination approach would be best to see visible improvement. In terms of non-surgical treatment options, I would recommend a Chemical Brow Lift (using Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau) and filler injections to rejuvenate the temples, eyebrow, eyelid, eye troughs, upper eye hollows, and forehead. I typically combine this with Ultherapy and thread lifting to lift the brow; RF and skin tightening laser treatments to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the skin; and laser or superficial RF devices for improvements in texture, color, and any crepey skin around the eyes as needed. In some cases, surgery is the best solution to achieve the desired results. See an expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer.​

Hello taylorschulzzThe best way to find out if a brow lift is right for you is to consult with our doctors. Our expert surgeons will examine your skin, including its texture and elasticity, and evaluate the tone of your underlying facial tissues and bone structure. Dr. Nichter or Dr. Horowitz will also consider the aesthetics of your eyes and how a brow lift would affect their appearance.

Thank you for your question. Botox can provide you with a temporary solution to create greater volume to achieve the appearance of the eyes and brows that you desire. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon to learn more about additional procedures that can improve your face. 
Best wishes,
