Heavy or drooping eyebrows can make you look tired or older than you feel. A Botox brow lift is a non-surgical treatment that uses small, carefully placed injections to relax the muscles that pull the eyebrows down, so the brows sit slightly higher and the eyes look more open. At Estheticare Dubai, your doctor plans the injection points around your face, aiming for a natural result. Prices start from AED 799 with Nabota or Botulax and AED 999 with Allergan (Botox®), as part of upper face treatment.

What Is a Botox Brow Lift?
A Botox brow lift is a minimally invasive treatment that changes the balance of the muscles around the brow. Botox relaxes the muscles that pull the brow down, so the muscle that lifts the brow (the frontalis) becomes more effective. The result is a gentle lift, not a surgical change.
Compared with a surgical brow lift, it offers:
- No surgery or incisions.
- No general anaesthesia.
- Minimal downtime.
- Temporary, reversible results.
How Does It Work?
Your brow position depends on muscles that lift it and muscles that pull it down.
- The frontalis muscle in the forehead lifts the brows.
- The orbicularis oculi (around the eye), procerus and corrugator muscles (between the brows) pull the brows down.
As we age, the skin loses elasticity and the brows can sit lower. By relaxing the downward-pulling muscles, Botox lets the lifting muscle work more freely. Because the placement is very precise, this treatment should be done by an experienced doctor.
Injection Areas
Every face is different, so the points vary. Common areas include:
- Outer part of the muscle around the eye: reduces the downward pull on the outer brow.
- Between the brows (procerus and corrugators): softens frown lines and supports the brow position.
- Selected points in the forehead: fine-tune shape and symmetry. Over-treating the forehead can lower the brows, so doses are kept conservative.
Botox Brow Lift for Hooded Eyes
Hooded eyes happen when extra skin folds over the upper eyelid, often from genetics, ageing or both. Lifting the brow slightly can show more of the eyelid and make the eyes look brighter.
Botox does not remove excess skin. If you have severe hooding, or loose eyelid skin that blocks your vision, you may need other treatments or surgery. Your doctor will tell you honestly if Botox is the right option.

Results Timeline
| Time after treatment | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Days 1–3 | Mild redness, swelling or small marks at the injection points. These settle quickly. |
| Days 4–7 | The outer brow starts to lift and the eye area looks more open. |
| Days 10–14 | Full effect is visible. |
| About 3–5 months | Muscle activity gradually returns and the effect fades. Many people repeat treatment in this window. |
A good result is subtle, symmetrical and natural, and keeps normal facial expression. Results vary from person to person.
What Happens During the Procedure?
- Consultation: your doctor assesses your brow position, facial anatomy and goals.
- Preparation: the skin is cleansed. Numbing cream may be applied. [Confirm if offered.]
- Injections: small amounts of Botox are placed with a very fine needle. Most patients feel brief pinches.
- Review: your doctor may invite you back at about 2 weeks to check the result and add a small touch-up if needed. [Confirm.]
Aftercare
- Do not touch or rub the treated area.
- Stay upright for about 4 hours after treatment.
- Avoid heavy exercise, saunas and steam rooms for the first 24 hours.
- Follow any extra advice from your doctor.
Risks and Side Effects
Botox is generally well tolerated when given by a qualified doctor. Possible temporary side effects include:
- Bruising and mild swelling.
- Uneven brows (asymmetry).
- Heaviness of the brow or forehead.
- Drooping of the eyelid or brow.
- Brows that look too high or arched.
A careful assessment, conservative dosing and follow-up lower these risks. Contact a doctor immediately if you have difficulty breathing, swallowing or speaking, or signs of a severe allergic reaction.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be suitable if you:
- Have mild to moderate brow drooping.
- Want a non-surgical option.
- Are 18 or older and in good general health.
- Have realistic expectations.
Botox may not be suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an active skin infection in the treatment area, have a known allergy to botulinum toxin, or have a neuromuscular disorder such as myasthenia gravis. Your doctor will review your history first.
