Brow Lift
A brow lift can be achieved by placing an anti-wrinkle muscle relaxant in the frown lines (between the brows) and also at the tail of your eyebrows. This will stop all of the natural gravitational drag-down forces of your eyebrows.
To achieve best results your forehead is not treated to allow the natural raise of your eyebrows to remain also.
