Frequently asked questions about non-surgical brow lifting
What is a non-surgical brow lift?
A non-surgical brow lift involves injecting botulinum into specific areas around the eyebrows to relax the muscles, lift the eyebrows and reduce wrinkles.
How does botulinum lift the eyebrow?
Botulinum temporarily relaxes the muscles that pull the eyebrows downwards, making the muscles responsible for lifting the eyebrows relatively stronger, resulting in a subtle lift.
Is the treatment painful?
Botulinum injections cause only minimal pain. The needle used is very fine and a slight burning sensation lasts only a few seconds.
How long does an eyebrow lift with botulinum last?
The effect of botulinum normally lasts between 3 and 6 months. After this, the treatment must be repeated to maintain the lifting effect.
When will I see results?
The results are usually visible within 3 to 4 days after the treatment, when the botulinum begins to take effect.
Are there any side effects or risks?
Temporary side effects include slight bruising and asymmetry of the eyebrows. Asymmetries can usually be corrected with subsequent injections.
Who is suitable for an brow lift with botulinum?
A non-surgical brow lift can raise the eyebrow by just a few millimetres. If a further lift or a long-term effect is desired, surgical brow correction may be advisable.
How long does the treatment take?
The botulinum injection takes just a few minutes, making it a quick and convenient treatment.
How can a non-surgical brow lift be combined with other treatments?
Many patients combine non-surgical brow lifts with other botulinum treatments, e.g. for frown lines or crow’s feet, to achieve a more comprehensive facial refreshment. Sometimes it can be useful to optimise the lifting effect with hyaluronic acid.
