Brow Lift

With age, the skin and muscles around the eyes may naturally weaken and stretch, sometimes resulting in volume changes, drooping of the eyebrows, or a hollow appearance around the eyes.

A non-surgical brow lift may help restore subtle volume, refine upper facial contours, and soften the appearance of fine lines. For some people, this treatment may also assist in balancing asymmetries in the brow area.

Initial consultation and assessment

Before undergoing any treatment, a thorough consultation is essential to assess your suitability. Our skilled practitioners will assess your facial anatomy, skin type, medical history, current medications and psychological readiness for the treatment.

We’ll discuss your skin concerns and desired results as well as cover possible side effects, recovery duration and realistic outcomes. If this treatment isn’t right for you, we’ll recommend alternative options that may better match your needs and circumstances.

Please note that if you’re considered eligible for the treatment, results may vary per individual. Outcomes depend on several factors, including your metabolism, facial features, treatment type and lifestyle.

This treatment may not be performed on individuals who:

  • Are currently pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Have been diagnosed with epilepsy, cancer, porphyria or enzyme disorders.
  • Suffer from autoimmune conditions.
  • Are prone to developing keloid scars.
  • Have known sensitivities to hyaluronic acid, lidocaine or latex.

What to do before and after a non-surgical brow lift

Here are key steps to follow before and after your appointment. Your practitioner will provide more detailed guidelines to ensure the best results:

Before your treatment

Preparation starts as early as a few weeks before your session. To reduce the risk of bruising, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements such as aspirin, fish oil and vitamin E at least two weeks prior. In addition, don’t consume alcohol for at least 24 hours before your appointment to prevent swelling. On the day of your treatment, arrive with a clean, makeup-free face to minimise the risk of infection.

After the treatment

Healing from facial volume treatments is a gradual process, and proper aftercare is key to ensuring optimal results. After your session, refrain from applying makeup for the rest of the day to minimise irritation. Avoid touching or massaging the treated area for at least three days.

For the first 24 hours, avoid activities that may lead to excessive sweating. Stay away from direct sunlight, saunas and extreme temperatures. If you experience swelling, a cold compress can be applied for 15 minutes each hour on the treated area to help reduce discomfort.

Hold off on using cosmeceuticals with active ingredients like retinol, AHAs or vitamin C for at least a week. Wait at least two weeks before flying to minimise the risk of swelling or bruising.

Potential risks and complications

All medical procedures carry risk. Outcomes vary between individuals, and no treatment can be guaranteed. This list is not a complete list of all potential risks & side effects and is meant as a guide only. Full treatment risks and side effects will be discussed in an in-person consultation.

A non-surgical eyebrow lift is a minimally invasive option, but as with any treatment, it comes with potential risks. While most side effects are minor, more serious complications can occasionally occur.

Some possible reactions include:

  • Allergic reactions or infections
  • Bruising, swelling or tenderness around the treated area
  • Mild irritation or itching following the treatment
  • Small bumps under the skin that usually settle on their own
  • A slight numbing or tingling sensation
  • Temporary skin discolouration
  • Vision loss

If you notice ongoing discomfort, swelling or any unexpected symptoms lasting more than 48 hours, contact us and seek medical attention right away.

FAQs

.

You may consider a non-surgical brow lift, which can sometimes help restore subtle volume and refine the contours of the upper face.

The effects of a non-surgical brow lift vary between individuals. On average, results may last around six to 12 months. In some cases, they may be visible for longer, depending on factors such as age, skin type, lifestyle, and metabolism.

Depending on individual suitability, a non-surgical brow lift may assist in improving the appearance of:

  • Mild to moderate skin laxity in the brow or upper face

  • Fine lines and wrinkles in the brow region

  • Slight hooding of the upper eyelid

It’s important to remember that results vary and a consultation is required to determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you.

As the body ages, it gradually produces less collagen and elastin — essential proteins responsible for keeping skin tight and resilient. This natural decline can result in loose skin and the formation of creases and fine lines.

A non-surgical brow lift may help restore subtle volume in the brow area, soften the appearance of wrinkles, and refine upper facial contours. For some people, this treatment may also assist in creating the appearance of a more open eye area and balanced facial profile.

A non-surgical brow lift using facial volume or wrinkle reduction treatment is temporary, and in many cases the result may last several months depending on the approach and individual factors. Because non-surgical brow lifting works by subtly supporting or relaxing the brow area rather than surgically altering it, the effect softens gradually over time.

Factors that influence how long it lasts include:

  • The specific treatment approach used for the brow area.
  • Individual factors such as metabolism and muscle activity.
  • Lifestyle and how your skin and muscles respond.

 

Because the result is not permanent, maintenance treatments are sometimes chosen to retain the lift. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and longevity should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. Pricing varies depending on individual assessment — contact Injex Clinics for a personalised quote. For related options, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

A non-surgical brow lift has limitations alongside its benefits, and understanding them supports realistic expectations. The treatment offers a subtle lift with minimal downtime, but the result is temporary and the degree of lift it can achieve is more modest than a surgical brow lift.

Potential disadvantages may include:

  • The result is temporary and requires maintenance over time.
  • The amount of lift is subtle rather than dramatic.
  • Temporary effects such as redness, swelling or bruising can occur.
  • It may not suit everyone, depending on anatomy and goals.

 

For people seeking a major or permanent change, surgical options assessed by relevant specialists may be more appropriate. Because this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. For related treatments, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

There is no single ideal age for a non-surgical brow lift, as suitability depends on individual factors rather than age alone. Adults of various ages consider brow treatments for different reasons, and the right time is determined by your goals, anatomy and overall health rather than a set number.

Considerations around timing include:

  • Suitability is based on individual assessment, not a fixed age.
  • The reason for treatment, such as subtle lifting or balancing the brow.
  • Your skin, muscle activity and overall health.

 

Because each person’s situation differs, an assessment provides the clearest guidance for you. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. For related options, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

The cost of a non-surgical brow lift in Australia varies between clinics and depends on the treatment approach and amount of product required, so there is no single national price. At Injex Clinics, cost is determined individually after assessment, and pricing varies depending on individual assessment — contact Injex Clinics for a personalised quote.

Factors that affect the cost generally include:

  • The treatment approach and the amount of product needed.
  • Whether a single session or staged approach is recommended.
  • Any maintenance treatments chosen over time as the effect fades.

 

Injex Clinics offers flexible payment options, with ZipPay and AfterPay available to help spread the cost. Because this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability before a quote can be confirmed, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. For payment information, see our flexible payment options page, and for related treatments, our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

Cosmetic treatments such as a non-surgical brow lift are generally not covered by Medicare, as Medicare typically funds medically necessary procedures rather than elective cosmetic ones. Coverage rules can be complex and depend on individual circumstances, so this should not be assumed either way.

General points to understand include:

  • Purely cosmetic procedures are usually not Medicare-funded.
  • Coverage may differ where a clear medical indication exists, which is rare for cosmetic brow lifts.
  • Your individual eligibility is a matter for Medicare and your doctor.

 

Because coverage depends on personal circumstances and current rules, the most accurate guidance comes from Medicare and your treating doctor rather than assumptions online. At Injex Clinics, flexible payment options such as ZipPay and AfterPay are available to help with cost. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. For payment detail, see our flexible payment options page.

There is no universally ideal age for a non-surgical brow lift, since suitability is assessed individually based on your goals, anatomy and health. People of different ages choose brow treatments for varied reasons, so the right time depends on personal factors rather than a specific age.

Points that guide timing include:

  • An individual assessment matters more than age alone.
  • Your specific goals, such as subtle lifting or brow balance.
  • Your skin condition, muscle activity and overall health.

 

Because circumstances vary, a personal assessment gives the clearest answer for you. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. For related treatments, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

A non-surgical brow lift has trade-offs to weigh against its benefits. While it offers a subtle, lower-downtime option, the result is temporary, the degree of lift is modest, and as with any injectable procedure there are individual risks to consider.

Potential cons include:

  • The effect is temporary and needs maintenance over time.
  • The lift is subtle rather than dramatic.
  • Temporary redness, swelling or bruising can occur after treatment.
  • It is not suitable for everyone, depending on anatomy and goals.

 

For those wanting a permanent or more significant change, surgical options assessed by appropriate specialists may be more suitable. Because this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. For related options, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

Costs for a non-surgical brow lift and surgical eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) differ substantially, but they are not directly comparable because they are different procedures with different outcomes. A non-surgical brow lift is a temporary treatment, while blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure, so comparing them on price alone overlooks key differences.

Points to keep in mind include:

  • The two procedures achieve different things and last for different lengths of time.
  • A non-surgical brow lift is temporary; surgery is a one-time structural change.
  • Surgical costs and considerations fall outside non-surgical treatment.

 

At Injex Clinics, the non-surgical brow lift is quoted individually after assessment, and pricing varies depending on individual assessment — contact Injex Clinics for a personalised quote. Surgical options should be discussed with a surgical provider. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. For payment options, see our flexible payment options page.

The cost of a non-surgical eyebrow lift depends on the treatment approach and the amount of product required, which is assessed individually. Because each person’s brow area, anatomy and goals differ, the treatment is quoted after assessment rather than at a single fixed price. Pricing varies depending on individual assessment — contact Injex Clinics for a personalised quote.

Factors that affect the price include:

  • The treatment approach and product quantity needed.
  • Whether one session or a staged approach is recommended.
  • Maintenance over time, since the result is temporary.

 

Injex Clinics offers flexible payment options such as ZipPay and AfterPay to help manage cost. Because this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability before a quote is confirmed, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. For payment detail, see our flexible payment options page, and for related treatments, our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

 

Whether eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) or a brow lift is more appropriate depends on the specific concern, since they address different areas and produce different results. A brow lift focuses on the position and appearance of the brow, while blepharoplasty addresses the eyelids, so the right choice depends on what you want to change.

Points to consider include:

  • The two procedures target different areas and goals.
  • A non-surgical brow lift is temporary; blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure.
  • The most suitable option depends on individual assessment of your concern.

 

At Injex Clinics, the non-surgical brow lift is the relevant option, while surgical procedures should be discussed with a surgical specialist. Because the non-surgical treatment is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. For related treatments, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

A mini brow lift generally refers to a more subtle or limited brow-lifting approach aimed at a gentle refinement rather than a major change, it’s like the thread lift procedure we offer. In a non-surgical context, this can mean a conservative treatment to lightly lift or open up the brow area, with minimal downtime.

Points that characterise a subtle approach include:

  • A focus on gentle, natural-looking refinement of the brow.
  • A more conservative amount of treatment than a fuller approach.
  • Minimal downtime, with temporary effects such as mild redness possible.

 

Because terminology varies and outcomes depend on individual anatomy, what is achievable is best clarified in person. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. For related options, see our non-surgical facial volume treatment in Brisbane.

Whether a non-surgical brow lift is worthwhile depends on your goals, your anatomy and a professional assessment, so it is an individual decision. Some clients value the subtle, refreshed appearance and minimal downtime, while others may prefer different options depending on the change they want.

Considerations when weighing it up include:

  • Your specific goals, such as a subtle lift or brow balance.
  • The temporary, maintenance-based nature of the result.
  • Your suitability based on anatomy and health.

 

Because the treatment offers a subtle rather than dramatic change, realistic expectations are important. As this is a prescription treatment, a consultation with a qualified medical or nursing practitioner is required to determine suitability, and individual risks and suitability should be discussed at a consultation. Results vary between individuals. Pricing varies depending on individual assessment — contact Injex Clinics for a personalised quote.
