A non-surgical brow lift with Dysport or Botox is an effective way to achieve a subtle elevation of the brows, resulting in a more refreshed and youthful appearance. The treatment works by relaxing specific muscles that pull the brow downward, allowing the opposing muscles to lift the brow naturally. At Quintessa, we customize the treatment to each patient’s unique facial anatomy to achieve the best results.
How Does Dysport Create a Brow Lift?
Dysport (and Botox) targets the muscles along the side of the upper eyelid. These muscles contribute to a downward pull of the brow. By relaxing them, the natural upward forces from other facial muscles create a gentle lift, improving brow position and the overall appearance of the upper face.
Units of Dysport Needed for a Brow Lift
The exact number of Dysport units required varies depending on your unique muscle activity, desired outcome, and overall anatomy. On average:
- Brow-Specific Treatment: Typically, 12–24 units of Dysport (4–8 units of Botox) are injected on each side to relax the brow-depressing muscles and create a lift.
- Crow’s Feet Combination: When treating crow’s feet in conjunction with a brow lift, 30–36 units of Dysport (10–12 units of Botox per side) may be used. This approach not only smooths wrinkles around the eyes but also enhances the lifting effect on the brows.
Dysport vs. Botox: Understanding the Units
Dysport and Botox work in a similar way, but the units are measured differently. Dysport typically requires three times the number of units as Botox to achieve the same effect. For example:
- 20 Units of Botox = 60 Units of Dysport
The choice between Dysport and Botox depends on your preference and how your body responds to the products, as both are equally effective when administered by an experienced provider.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
- Quick Procedure: A Dysport brow lift is a minimally invasive treatment that takes less than 30 minutes.
- Subtle Results: The lift is usually mild but creates a noticeable difference, giving your brows a naturally elevated appearance.
- Gradual Improvement: Results typically appear within 3–7 days and last 3–4 months before a maintenance session is needed.
