Once upon a time, if someone wanted an eyebrow lift, they would have to resort to surgical procedures to tighten and lift skin. This had the chance of scarring and was expensive with recovery time. Thanks to Botox, we have an alternative treatment. For those who are at a loss with how to open-up and refresh their tired, hooded eyes, we say try The Cosmetic Skin Clinic’s Botox Brow Lift. The overarched eyebrow might spring to mind, but at the hands of our trained and experienced team you will get natural results. Discover below how it works, the benefits and more.
What is a Botox brow lift?
A Botox Brow Lift also called an Eyebrow lift, is a non-surgical procedure that treats frown lines between the eyebrows. With the use of FDA-approved Botox, we can elevate your eyebrows through relaxing the muscles.
How does the Brow Lift Botox work?
The Brow Lift works by carefully placing Botox between the eyebrow.
Small injections of Botox are also administered into the forehead muscles (called the frontalis muscle) to create an overall smoothing effect, while elevating the eyebrows thanks to the relaxed muscles pulling them up.
Botox in the frontalis muscle reduces muscle activity, minimises the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as horizontal forehead lines and furrows. At The Cosmetic Skin Clinic, we assess the whole upper face area to provide a balanced result.
This will relax the muscles to give the appearance of smooth skin, whilst also allowing the forehead muscles (also called frontalis muscle) to pull up the relaxed muscles elevating the eyebrows and refreshing the eyes.

A skilled practitioner will be able to judge whether you need additional Botox injections at the end of your eyebrows to relax and further open up the eyes if needed.
One of The Cosmetic Skin Clinic’s Botox expert, Tara Jackson (RGN Senior Aesthetic Medical Practitioner) explains that, “a browlift with Botox involves injecting Botox directly to between the brows this allows the forehead muscles to take over and lift the brow into their original position . A Botox browlift can vary between 1 and 3 mm, it all depends on the natural shape of your brows. Most patients benefit from a further injection at the tail of the brow.”
Benefits of a Botox Brow Lift versus a traditional Brow Lift
A traditional brow lift is an invasive type of cosmetic surgery that involves incisions and removal of skin to achieve that lifted look. The downside with this surgery is the scarring, downtime and that results are permanent. However, the Botox Brow Lift is non-surgical, so there is no scarring and results can last up to 6 months.
Benefits of a Botox Brow Lift include:
- Time – a Botox Brow Lift treatment can take around 20 minutes.
- It takes 5-7 days for Botox results to take effect which is fast
- No downtime – get back to your normal activities right away
- Non-surgical so no scarring
- FDA-approved so it is safe when administered by an expert
- Can be combined with other non-surgical eye lift treatments like dermal fillers
- Results are effective which is why it is popular!
Can I get a brow lift without the Botox?
People believe they can get a brow lift through skincare and facial massages. If only it was this simple. In cases of a brow lift, this relies on the muscular dynamism which requires the helping hand of Botox.
Is a Botox Brow Lift a suitable treatment for you?
Both men and women can suffer from having frown lines. If these are on the scale of moderate to severe, then a Botox brow lift may benefit them. The ideal candidate is anyone who has significant sagging skin, drooping eyelids or low-hanging eyebrows.
The Botox brow lift is the perfect treatment for anyone who has a heavy brow area and doesn’t want to go through invasive surgery to open up and lift that area.
Your Cosmetic Skin Clinic practitioner will assess your suitability based on a number of factors and will recommend the right treatment to uplift your brow.
