Many women, in an attempt to maintain the freshness and beauty of their faces, as well as to correct imperfections, resort to cosmetic manipulations in the form of injections into the deep layers of the epidermis. One of the popular procedures is Botox injections into various parts of the body and face.

The causes of complications may be: the introduction of inappropriately large doses of botulinum toxin, anatomical asymmetry, as well as the patient’s failure to follow the recommendations of a cosmetologist.
There are side effects that are common to all injection techniques - pain during the procedure and hematomas that occur at the injection sites. Very rarely, when correcting wrinkles on the forehead and bridge of the nose, headaches are observed, which are associated with impaired lymph flow in this area. They go away within a few days.
Unsatisfactory aesthetic results (complications) may include the following:
It should be noted that all aesthetic complications are reversible, that is, they disappear over time when the effect of the drug ends and the muscles return to their original position. However, in order to avoid them, you should pay special attention to the choice of the clinic and the doctor who will perform the procedure.
One of the rarest complications is tissue immunity to the action of botulinum toxin. The body can produce antibodies, blocking the drug's effects on nerve endings.

What to do if after Botox not only your eyebrows droop, but your upper eyelids also droop
The occurrence of this situation is associated with a decrease in muscle tone. Swelling of the tissues, forehead and eyelids occurs, as a result of which the eyebrow also droops. Fibers deprived of movement cannot fully carry out the outflow of blood, which is why the soft tissues pull the upper eyelid down.
The recovery process in this case differs significantly from standard treatment. Although sometimes the symptoms may go away on their own, you may still need professional help from a doctor. You should not take any medications without a doctor's prescription.
There are various reasons that influence drooping eyelids:
- The body's reaction to the drug. A large number of injections increases the risk of developing ptosis. Typically, this trend is observed if Botox is used for several years without interruption.
- Exceeding the prescribed dosage. Here the omission occurs due to the fact that the drug was incorrectly mixed or the injection site was incorrectly determined. An overdose contributes to ptosis of the eyelid line and eyebrows. Experts advise doing injections with a small dose of Botox, and if the desired effect is not achieved, then simply repeat the manipulation.
- Uneven distribution in skin cells. After puncture, the molecules of the composition move a short distance from each other. There is a possibility of affecting neighboring muscles that do not need to be relaxed.
This defect is visible to the naked eye. The usual position of the eyelid changes, it goes down.
Ptosis is clearly visible a couple of days after the injection. It can be in one or both eyes, partial, incomplete or complete.

The defect leads to facial asymmetry, and the eyes cease to be fully moisturized. This may cause irritation. In addition, the process of closing the eyes becomes difficult, and heaviness is felt on the eyelids. In order to improve vision, you have to tilt your head back, which greatly strains the muscles and disrupts blood flow.
Elimination of unwanted symptoms is also possible and takes an average of one month. When it comes to more severe consequences, the recovery process can last six months. As therapy, an additional dose of drugs is often used to restore muscles and eliminate asymmetry.
To restore motor functions, medications and various manipulations are used. But surgical interventions in such matters are extremely rarely resorted to. It is always better to seek help from a competent specialist to minimize the risk of unwanted defects.
Frequent complications after BTA injections
In 2022, the medical publication Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology published a review of all common complications after botulinum toxin injections. Today we will remember the main ones, tell you the reason for the occurrence of complications and methods for their correction.
Pain at the injection site
They are normal and may be accompanied by swelling, hematomas, and an allergic reaction. It is almost impossible to predict them, but you can minimize unpleasant reactions if you use a thinner needle and pay special attention to superficial vessels. After the procedure, apply cold for a while.
Upper eyelid ptosis
A very common complication that occurs during correction of the glabellar zone. This occurs due to diffusion of the administered drug due to improper dilution and dosage. Also, the injection site may be too low or deep, or the drug was administered in the projection of the incesture. To prevent this complication, it is important to introduce BTA into the area of the lateral corrugator superficially, only with the tip of the needle. Stimulation of the Müller muscle (m. superior tarsal) with ophthalmic drops, 0.5% apraclonidine or naphazoline is also recommended.
Dysphagia
Consequence of injection of botulinum toxin into the platysma bands to improve the contour of the lower third of the face for other purposes. When correcting m.platysma, small doses of a diluted drug must be injected into the central zone in order to avoid unpredictable diffusion. To correct the complication, an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is used.
Dry eye syndrome
A complication associated with botulinum toxin entering the lacrimal gland due to strong diffusion. In order to avoid this problem, it is recommended to inject botulinum toxin 1 cm lateral to the orbital margin.
Weakness of the masticatory muscles
A complication caused by the off-label administration of BTA to correct hypertonicity of the masticatory muscles. Before the injection, it is extremely important to palpate the correction area and make markings with clenched teeth. Draw a line from the corner of the mouth to the tragus and inject botulinum toxin below this line.
Floppy neck syndrome
Occurs when the concentration of the administered drug is too strong in the neck muscles or in the sternocleidomastoid muscle. It is recommended to inject botulinum toxin only into the upper part of the m.platysma.
"Eyebrows of Mephistopheles"
A common complication caused by BTA injection into the m. corrugator, procerus and medial fibers of the orbicularis oculi. It is possible to correct the position of the eyebrows by introducing BTA high laterally into the m. frontalis is closer to the bottom of the eyebrow tail.
Eyebrow ptosis
Occurs with hypercorrection of the forehead area. It is recommended to inject 2 cm above the eyebrows.
Asymmetrical smile
Can be triggered by BTA entering m. masseter, in case of unilateral diffusion of the drug into m. risorius. It is better to inject only half the dose of the drug deep into the m. masseter Inject the remaining part along the lower border of the muscle.
Occurs when the injection technique is incorrect or the dose of BTA is incorrectly calculated without taking into account anatomical features. It is important to modify the administration schedule and dose of BTA, taking into account the individual anatomical nuances of the patient.

What is the result after eyebrow lifting?
Some time after the injection, the drug begins to act and at the injection sites the muscles “stand up”, that is, they relax and stop working.
Visible effect that can be expected after a non-surgical eyebrow lifting procedure:
- the forehead is smoothed, vertical folds and horizontal wrinkles disappear;
- the center of the eyebrow rises to form a natural curve;
- the upper eyelid rises;
- facial wrinkles disappear;
- the skin around the eye looks lighter and smoother.
Result after the procedure
Yulia Frangulova: “Mephistopheles’ eyebrows” are the most harmless mistake of a would-be cosmetologist.”
“Enterprising people found an “alternative” to expensive fillers: they used Vaseline to enlarge the buttocks, breasts and other parts of the body. The complications are monstrous.” Why do they become “victims of beauty”?
A few months ago, the media and social networks blew up the story of Emelyan Braude (pseudonym, real name unknown). A man without special education presented himself as an expert in injection techniques and conducted training master classes throughout the country. The “coach” estimated that more than 1,500 people attended. The consequences are massive catastrophic complications for patients.
On the eve of the New Year, the demand for injection procedures traditionally soars - women, and men too, strive to quickly look younger and prettier. Everyone has seen victims of unsuccessful cosmetic procedures - on screen and in life. We asked the co-owner and general director of the Linline laser cosmetology clinic chain, Yulia Frangulova, to comment on why people get complications instead of beauty and youth, and how not to become a “victim of beauty.”
The gray market in cosmetology is huge
— The story of Emelyan Braude sweeping the country is extremely unpleasant, but very revealing - it fully reflects the chaos that we see in the cosmetology market. Braude worked as a courier for a pharmaceutical company; he did not even have a secondary medical education - which he proudly declared when offering his own methods. It is unknown what drugs he worked with. Nevertheless, thousands of people came to him to study, after which they practiced on patients.
This bacchanalia continued for quite a long time. They began to expose him through social networks. I am not sure that this story will end with a high-profile trial and criminal prosecution - there is no evidence that he personally administered injections, which led to dire consequences. One can only guess at the scale of the damage that he and his “disciples” have caused and will continue to cause.
The gray market for cosmetology is huge. Most patients receive injections at home. Many people understand that the price for saving will be the absence of a contract, informed consent, and receipts, but they take risks - after all, “everything was done well for my friend Masha.” Others simply don't think about the possible consequences.
Teaching injection techniques via YouTube is becoming fashionable. Recently, a patient came to one of the clinics in our network and gave herself injections in front of a mirror! She came to the doctor with complications.
Only a dermatovenerologist with a certificate of cosmetologist can administer injections. He must complete a training cycle (576 hours) at a medical government institution, and not at a commercial organization with an educational license. In addition, accreditation from the distributor to supply the appropriate drugs and a certificate are required. The package of documents of the average cosmetologist rarely meets all these requirements. Moreover, in some reputable clinics, doctors train each other without company accreditation. Of course, this affects the quality.
Do I need to see a doctor if my eyebrows droop after Botox?
Not every case of omission is considered harmless, as many people think. There are a number of reasons why you should immediately seek help from a doctor:
- severe pain in the eyes;
- blinking function is impaired;
- headaches, dizziness;
- There is constant lacrimation, sometimes strabismus.
Under no circumstances should you take pills in the hope that the unpleasant symptoms will go away on their own. Lost time can be costly and lead to more serious negative reactions.
Instead of sensual lips - surgery
Today, fillers, for example those containing calcium hydroxyapatite, are very popular, as it provides a long-term effect. Pharmaceutical companies encourage cosmetologists with bonus trips to foreign congresses: if you buy a certain amount of the drug, you get a ticket to Monaco or Paris.
But semi-synthetic fillers do not completely dissolve. If complications occur, such as granulomas, the drug must be removed surgically. There are no other ways. Unfortunately, after the intervention, scars remain.
The most common causes of complications are drugs of unknown origin and administration technique.
Worse things happen. Enterprising people found an “alternative” to expensive fillers: they used Vaseline to enlarge the buttocks, breasts and other parts of the body. Since the “drug” was injected very deeply, the patients suffered terrible complications: inflammatory processes, intoxication of the body. As with the lips, the only way to solve the problem is surgery.
“Eyebrows of Mephistopheles” - the lesser of evils
Complications after botulinum toxin administration arise for two reasons. The first is poor quality material. In Russia, for example, “Chinese Botox” is widely used, which I have not yet seen abroad, as well as in clinics in Beijing, where I was on a business trip. After such a miracle drug is administered, other botulinum toxins rarely work. To get the desired effect next time, the patient will have to administer a larger dose of the drug. An alternative option is to forget about Botox for five years.
A large amount of counterfeit goods comes from Georgia and Turkey. Its main distribution area is the Southern Federal District, but the distribution area of illegal supplies is expanding every month due to the growing demand for cheap drugs. And most of them, unfortunately, are not registered.
Every cosmetologist, and especially chief physicians, receive mailings every day from agents offering both certified drugs and those whose names we don’t bother to remember.
The second reason for failure is the lack of necessary knowledge in the field of anatomy among cosmetologists. And this is the basic component of successful installation of botulinum toxin. If the point is chosen incorrectly, the patient may get “Mephistopheles eyebrows” or ptosis of the upper eyelid.
From the point of view of long-term and reversibility of the negative consequences, botulinum toxin injection is the lesser of two evils. The effect disappears after 6-8 months. But complications knock people out of their usual rhythm of life. If one eyebrow is higher than the other or the eyelid is completely drooping, it is difficult to calmly look at yourself in the mirror. Such patients can be rehabilitated, but not in two or three days. The process usually takes from three weeks to several months.
How scars create a lifting effect
We almost never practice thread lifting. We resort to it when a patient with very severe sagging of the lower third of the face is not ready for plastic surgery. The placement of threads is a serious intervention; in our country, these procedures are performed only by doctors with a surgical profile and cosmetologists with extensive experience.
Why am I skeptical about thread lifting? When threads are inserted, fibrosis (scar changes) is formed. In general, you don’t have to insert threads: you make a puncture and get the effect. Some cosmetologists do this without informing the client about it.
How to protect yourself:
1. Gather information
Check the availability of a medical license for the relevant types of activities on the clinic’s website. Find out what documents doctors have. Find non-commercial publications on the Internet about the technologies used, for example, on professional portals. Read reviews, although they are becoming increasingly difficult to trust. I think everyone remembers the story when TripAdvisor awarded a non-existent “top” restaurant in London.
2. Check your medications
Look at the packaging: the inscriptions should be in Russian - this is an indicator that the drug is certified in Russia. If you see symbols only in a foreign language, rest assured that the drug was brought into the country illegally.
By the way: Russian cosmetologists travel abroad with suitcases of medications. They give injections to clients who travel between Russia and the Cote d'Azur throughout the year, for example. I met this cosmetologist on the plane. For me, the existence of such a service was a revelation.
When administering botulinum toxin, it is difficult for the patient to estimate the amount of the drug administered; for example, instead of 20 paid units, a cosmetologist may supply 10. How to check? Botox is administered with insulin syringes, you can evaluate the volume before and after the procedure.
The patient has every right to test the drug. The doctor might not like it. But don't be shy about doing this.
3. Don't neglect documents.
The informed consent must be signed by the doctor who administers the injections, and not by Ivan Ivanovich, the only accredited specialist at the clinic. When applying filler, a hologram from the drug packaging must be pasted into the informed consent. Its absence is a reason to ask a question.
Documents are your evidence base in case of complications. Without them, the patient is not protected. According to the Law on the Protection of Consumer Rights, the clinic must carry out rehabilitation measures and compensate for material and moral damage.
As a rule, complications after injections occur in those who turn to “home cosmetologists.” In this case, unfortunately, the person has no chance of receiving satisfaction. Over the past six months, the number of primary patients presenting with such complications has grown exponentially.
And finally
The age at which injections are required has dropped significantly. Girls develop the desire to conform quite early. They see models with full lips and chiseled chins and by hook or by crook they try to achieve this effect. No sane parent would sign informed consent for their child to have fillers or threads. But “home cosmetologists” don’t ask for it. Although some officially operating clinics do too. Recently there was a big story in Moscow: one clinic did not hesitate to give fillers to minors. In Yekaterinburg, fortunately, I have not heard of such precedents.

What is eyebrow botox
Cosmetologists began removing wrinkles with Botox injections quite a long time ago. Botox is a medical drug used to relieve spasms in muscle tissue.
This solution is actively used by cosmetologists. It has the following functions:
The active component of this product is botulinum toxin, which has previously undergone processing and cleansing procedures. Therefore, the substance is not capable of harming the human body, except for the occurrence of side effects. One of which is the drooping of the brow ridges.
Botox injections, in fact, consist of more than just one substance, which gives the drugs their name. The product includes:
Botox injections have not only a corrective, but also a therapeutic effect, but their use is only possible by professionals with medical education.
Botulinum toxin, which is the basis of the drug, is a powerful poison that can cause death. In small doses it does not harm, it only causes mild paralysis of muscle fibers, which is why it is used to smooth out the brow ridges.
Not all people are allowed to carry out injections of this type; there is a list of conditions in which exposure is strictly prohibited.
The drooping of the eyebrow line represents its displacement with the upper eyelids hanging over the eyes. This unpleasant phenomenon may be accompanied by wrinkles that appear in the forehead and bridge of the nose. As a result, a woman, instead of the expected effect, gets a heavy look, asymmetry, and a general gloomy facial expression.
Eyebrow care in a cosmetology salon
Neat, well-groomed eyebrows with a clear line make any face more expressive, the look is open, and the created female image is complete. Various eyebrow manipulations can be carried out independently; many of them (the most complex) are best left to professional cosmetologists.
Masters offer their clients such eyebrow care treatments as:
- correction, which includes choosing the most suitable eyebrow line, its thickness and arch height, opening the eye and harmonizing this part with other components of the face;
- coloring that gives clarity to the eyebrow lines and brightness to the shade of the hairs;
- permanent tattoo, allowing you to forget about everyday eyebrow makeup for a long time.
The most radical procedure in the salon eyebrow care program is the injection of various drugs into the eyebrow area, aimed at smoothing out facial wrinkles in the corners of the eyes and on the forehead. Such manipulations are called “Botox”.
Note! Sometimes unscrupulous marketers in the cosmetology industry mislead clients by declaring that by covering eyebrows and eyelashes with a special thickening and strengthening composition, they are performing a Botox procedure, whereas this is more related to lamination techniques.
How to raise eyebrows with Botox and Dysport
You can raise eyebrows not only through botulinum toxin injections, but also with a drug called Dysport. There is practically no difference between these two products, the only thing is that Botox contains a smaller amount of active substance. For this reason, its effect becomes noticeable after about 4 days to a week, while Dysport acts faster, after just a couple of days. In general, the effect of drugs on the human body, the scheme of administration of the composition, and other manipulations are almost the same.
How is the injection procedure performed? After the cosmetologist confirms that the patient has no contraindications to the procedure, the work begins.
It includes several stages:
The whole process takes no more than 25 minutes, and most of the time is spent on administering anesthetics and waiting for their effects.
The cosmetologist calculates the amount of the administered drug individually for each drug. It depends on a number of factors:
When the procedure is not complicated, you will need 1-2 units of the product, otherwise, the cosmetologist can use up to 30 units of the product. When selecting the right amount of Botox, moderation is very important, otherwise the achieved result may be negative (the face will become completely static and resemble a mask).
Incorrectly administered injections can cause changes in the shape of the arches, disruption of the normal mobility of muscle fibers, provoking the development of various disorders.
Indications and contraindications
Botox injections into the upper third of the face will help get rid of many aesthetic and physiological problems.
- Raising the eyebrows occurs due to relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle. At the same time, wrinkles around the eye are removed.
- The interbrow fold is smoothed out.
- The eyebrow shape is corrected. If you make injections under the outer third of the eyebrow and above the inner corner, a noticeable change in the shape of the eyebrow occurs. Its outer corner relaxes and falls, and the central part rises, forming a beautiful bend.
- The procedure allows you to remove drooping eyelids. The upper part of the motionless eyelid will rise following the eyebrow, the eyes will become visually larger, and the gaze will be more open.
The procedure has categorical contraindications:
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- blood clotting disorder;
- oncological diseases;
- epilepsy;
- skin defects (moles, papillomas, rashes, dermatitis) at the sites of intended injections.
You should not do this procedure:
- during menstruation;
- exacerbation of chronic diseases or acute respiratory infections.
If you have chronic diseases, you must notify the cosmetologist at the clinic about this before the procedure.
The procedure is contraindicated for pregnant women
Problems after eyebrow botox
A common problem after such an intervention is the situation when the brow ridges have risen above the required, natural position and do not fall back. Sometimes the arches become asymmetrical, which usually goes away over time as the Botox begins to dissolve.
Mephistopheles eyebrows - this is the name of the problem that arises due to the cosmetologist violating the proportions of dilution of the drug. If there is too little Botox, then the muscles will not be blocked enough, and a large amount, on the contrary, will clamp the arches and completely block the activity of the muscle muscles. If the medicine is used in a very high dosage, then the “Mephistopheles eyebrows” effect occurs when they are clearly raised upward.
What can be done in such a situation? You can wait a few weeks for the medication to begin to release, causing the muscles to partially unblock. But, in cases where a woman has an important event ahead, she may not be able to wait long. In this case, to eliminate the problem, you will need to administer botulinum toxin antagonists, which will help remove muscle strain.
What is Botox used for?
Botox is used in cosmetology to remove fine wrinkles without the use of complex surgical procedures. This technology allows you to form clear boundaries of the eyebrows and the position of the arches.
Often, under the influence of age, the eyebrows begin to droop, and the upper eyelid seems to hang over the eye. The result is a feeling of a gloomy, heavy look.
Using an innovative product, you can effectively lift sagging skin and eliminate excessive asymmetry in shape. But this procedure has a number of limitations. For example, it is contraindicated to use if there are any allergic reactions to the components of the drug. You should also not get Botox during pregnancy or if you have certain chronic diseases.
Before introducing the composition, the surface of the skin is cleaned and the area for punctures is marked. This manipulation is performed using anesthesia, which allows you to not feel pain during the session. The procedure lasts approximately an hour. The redness disappears after a few days.

You can admire the beautiful result for about six months on average, and then correction should be made. Thanks to Botox, wrinkles become less noticeable, the skin becomes smoother, and the look becomes expressive.
Unfortunately, this transformation technology can lead to the appearance of follicles.
Causes of ptosis - drooping eyebrows
Only doctors with higher medical education, appropriate qualifications and experience can give injections with botulinum toxin.
Small mistakes, an incorrectly calculated dose - all this can lead to a serious violation of the correct geometry of a person’s face. In 90% of cases where problems occur, the cosmetologist who made the injection is to blame.
We will consider the reasons that can cause drooping brow ridges below.
Doctor's mistakes
Most often, the problem lies in using too much of the active ingredient. According to the golden rule, it is better to inject less than more, however, not everyone follows it.
Very often, newcomers to cosmetology strive to inject the highest possible dose, not remembering that in their hands there is a real toxin that has the ability to paralyze the movement of muscle fibers.
In addition, some “specialists” simply do not know where exactly Botox should be injected. They have no idea about the physiology of the face, and therefore the achieved effect does not please clients.
The last reason for violations on the part of the cosmetologist is an incorrect assessment of the patient’s muscle tone. That is why doctors administer too much of the drug, which is unacceptable for the delicate facial muscles.
Client's fault
Even if the doctor performed the procedure perfectly correctly, the problem of drooping eyebrows can develop due to the client’s failure to comply with the recommendations given by the cosmetologist.
Problems especially often arise when a person does not comply with the ban on tilting the head immediately after the procedure. This leads to a redistribution of substances within the tissues, due to which botulinum toxin molecules accumulate in a completely different place than planned.
In addition, not all patients abstain from alcohol before and after the procedure. For this reason, the body produces unpredictable negative reactions.
Individual characteristics
There is always a risk of complications, because it is impossible to predict how the facial muscles will react to the injected drug. Very often, prolapse appears after several repetitions of injections, around the 8th-9th procedure.
How often to do the procedure
The greatest effect of Botox is achieved in the third week after the procedure and lasts up to six months, after which the drug is washed out of the body, the muscles come to life, and the eyebrows may fall again. Therefore, cosmetologists recommend repeat botulinum therapy no earlier than 6 months. In addition, frequent injections of the drug increase the risk of adverse reactions.
Botox injections into the facial muscles are one of the minimally invasive ways to raise eyebrows and eliminate wrinkles near the eyes. To avoid complications, such jewelry work should be trusted only to trusted craftsmen in the salon.
Methods for treating ptosis
What to do, how to correct the situation with drooping brow ridges? Here you can try several methods, some of them can be implemented independently, at home, others are carried out only in a cosmetology salon. The most advanced cases may require radical surgical intervention.
Home methods
To cope with drooping eyebrows at home, you need to apply heat to the problem area. For this purpose, a warm compress applied to the area of the brow ridges with partial coverage of the frontal lobe is suitable. However, caution is important here; if ptosis has developed due to swelling of the tissues, the problem will only get worse, and the swelling may go lower, to the bridge of the nose.
A massage gives a good result, the main thing is to do it with shea butter, coconut, burdock, and almond products. The area where the drug is administered is gently treated with the pads of the fingers; you need to move along the massage lines.
Additional injections
If the violations are not too significant, the specialist may recommend reintroducing the substance. Only injections are given into those fibers that are responsible for lowering the eyelid in order to balance muscle strength.
In addition, you can make injections around the second eye (if one eyebrow is lowered) so that the second one takes the same position. Symmetry will appear, which will make ptosis less noticeable.
Physiotherapy
For obvious damage to the nerve that controls eye movement, physiotherapy methods are used.
Medications
To restore tissue mobility, a specialist may recommend taking the following medications:
Taking any medications or instilling drops is only permitted under the advice and supervision of a physician.
Sometimes a decision is made to use Apraclonidine drops; they spasm the muscle fibers, raising the arches. In addition, the use of meso-cocktails is indicated to saturate tissues with vitamins and speed up the recovery process.
If your eyebrows are drooping after Botox: how to correct the situation with a cosmetologist
As a rule, eyebrow ptosis can be eliminated, and sometimes the symptoms disappear on their own. If the defects are not too severe, they disappear within two weeks. In rare cases, it takes up to six months to eliminate side effects - that’s exactly how long the Botox effect lasts.
Sometimes auxiliary drugs are used that remove asymmetry. There will be no visible difference between the eyes. Most often, specialists try to concentrate the power of the product on the skin area near the upper eyelid, which helps align the muscle tissue.
The most effective way is stimulation and microcurrent treatment. Its main function is to regenerate the functions of frozen muscles.
Doctors may also prescribe drug therapy, which prescribes medications that restore muscle mobility and speed up their healing. Unfortunately, the treatment will not give a 100% result: the maximum arch will rise by 2 mm. Changing the condition on your own at home is almost impossible. The maximum that can be done is to eliminate the swelling.
If you instill Apraclonidil, mobility returns to the muscles and the pressure in the eyeball decreases. This drug is used only for severe or moderate defects. Do not self-medicate under any circumstances. It can lead to more terrible complications. Always perform restoration only under the strict supervision of an ophthalmologist.
Treatment with Brimonidine is another type of elimination of drooping eyebrows. The product removes swelling, lowers intraocular pressure, and relieves redness. Can be used in mild stages of asymmetry. Only a specialist calculates the number of courses and duration of taking the drug.
