As one ages, loss of collagen, the effects of gravity and the predominance of the brow depressors can cause the brow to droop, lowering the brow and causing an aged look .In addition, the eyebrows tend to lose their arch, becoming more horizontal. A chemical brow lift with Anti-wrinkle Injections and or a Dermal Filler can recreate a more arched, youthful brow, producing similar results to a traditional brow lift but without the surgery.

How Anti-wrinkle Injections works to elevate a sagging brow: When we are younger, the brow elevators are more prominent and the face appears constantly elevated. As we age, the dynamics change and the depressors take over and combined with gravity, a gradual sagging of our brow takes place. If we can keep the dynamics between elevators and depressors neutral with strategically placed Anti-wrinkle Injections every 4 to 6 months, then the sagging that occurs with ageing will be reduced. Multiple clinical studies have shown that after correctly placed Anti-wrinkle Injections, a modest elevation occurs in the range of 1 to 3 mms which in the face can be a make a real observable difference. Once the treatment “kicks” in 10 days later, the face takes on a relaxed and refreshed look and one’s face appears to glow. This result is very dependent on the experience of the injector and injections incorrectly placed can actually cause the brow to droop.
