The Botox® brow lift works by relaxing specific muscles around the delicate eye area, thus smoothing away worry lines and deep grooves caused by frowning along the lower forehead. When specific muscles around the eyebrows are relaxed, the skin appears smoother, more toned, and the brows are lifted to a more youthful position.

The Botox® brow lift can be performed on all skin types and may be particularly effective for people who have naturally-drooping eyelids and low-hanging eyebrows. The brow lift literally ‘lifts’ the skin tissues above and around the eyebrows so that the natural eyebrow arch is a few millimeters higher. In some cases, surgery might be required, and appropriate advice will be given.

The procedure consists of a few injections in the target area using acupuncture-like needles. It takes only a few minutes, involves little discomfort, and requires no downtime.

The treatment will gradually wear off after 3-4 months. If the area is re-treated as soon as the muscles start to move, the muscles never regain their “memory.” After a number of re-treatments, the interval between treatments becomes longer.

You may get a slight bruise at the injection site.

Please note that some patients who don’t require the treatment or are not good candidates will be advised during the consultation process and treatment may be declined to avoid disappointment.

Your health and wellbeing are not something you should put at risk for the sake of a few pounds. There are many stories of bogus muscle relaxant injectors offering this treatment at impossibly low prices. The old adage, “…sounds too good to be true…” is normally true when it comes to medical aesthetic injectable treatments. Remember, although it is a cosmetic treatment, it is a prescription-only medicine and can only be performed by medical doctors and nurses with special prescribing qualifications. If you are unsure about who is performing the treatment and their qualifications, we recommend checking the SAVE FACE website, which contains the only government-recognised list of accredited practitioners.
