Area of Science:

  • Aesthetic Medicine
  • Dermatology
  • Ophthalmology

Background:

  • Botulinum toxin is a well-established treatment for hyperfunctional facial lines.
  • Understanding its effects on brow position is crucial for aesthetic outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To quantify brow position changes following botulinum toxin treatment.
  • To evaluate the impact on brow depressor muscles.

Main Methods:

  • Eleven women aged 30-60 received botulinum toxin injections in the brow area.
  • Brow position was measured relative to the pupil before and after treatment.
  • Injections targeted the glabellar region and lateral orbital rim.

Main Results:

  • Statistically significant brow elevation was observed in both relaxed and elevated positions.

  • Mean elevations ranged from 1.86 mm to 3.06 mm at different brow points.
  • The treatment yielded noticeable changes in brow height and contour.
  • Conclusions:

    • Botulinum toxin provides a safe and effective temporary browlift.
    • The induced brow elevation can create desirable aesthetic results for the female brow.
    • Treatment offers predictable changes in brow shape and height.
