5 facts about neuromodulator brow lifts:
1. Mechanism of Action: A neuromodulator brow lift relaxes specific muscles that pull the brows downward—mainly the orbicularis oculi and depressor supercilii—allowing the frontalis muscle (which lifts the brows) to work unopposed.
2. Non-Surgical Approach: It is a non-invasive, injectable procedure that temporarily elevates the brows without the need for incisions or downtime, making it an attractive option for patients seeking subtle rejuvenation.
3. Targeted Injection Sites: Common injection points include the lateral brow, glabella (between the eyebrows), and sometimes the tail of the frontalis muscle, depending on brow asymmetry, baseline muscle activity, and desired arch.
4. Results and Duration: Results typically appear within 3–7 days, with full effect around 2 weeks. The lift is subtle (usually 1–3 mm) but can significantly open up the eye area. Effects last about 3–4 months, depending on the neuromodulator used.
5. Ideal Candidates: Best suited for patients with mild brow ptosis or heaviness, early signs of aging, or those looking for a more rested appearance without surgery. It’s also a popular preventative measure in younger patients
