Question

I am 22 years old and I have never been happy with the positioning of my brows. Constantly pushing them up, shaving them off and drawing them higher.

I would just love to have them slightly higher than what they already are. I don't have crows feet or wrinkles obviously so would my age mean that I am not a suitable candidate for a brow lift?

Answer

A brow lift at the age of 22 seems unnecessarily aggressive as a line of treatment, but of course it is impossible to be more specific regarding these points without a formal consultation.

In many instances, botulinum toxin can assist with adjustment in the position of the eyebrows and activity of the frown muscles, to create a softer and more relaxed appearance around the eyes.
