A heavy or sagging brow can make your eye area appear tired or tense, even when you're well-rested. A non-surgical brow lift offers a subtle, minimally invasive way to restore a lifted, refreshed look. At Ageless Aesthetics in Santa Fe, we use carefully placed Botox injections to create natural-looking lift and improved brow definition. The goal isn’t to change your expression—it’s to restore a sense of openness, ease, and vitality to your natural look.
Every brow is different, and so is every treatment. We tailor each approach to your facial structure and preferences for refreshed, natural-looking results that preserve the unique expressiveness of your features.

Customized to your facial structure and aesthetic goals
A Botox® brow lift is a procedure that treats frown lines between your brows and elevates the height of your eyebrows with Botox Cosmetic (botulinum toxin type A) injections. These injections work by relaxing underlying muscles to smooth your skin on the outside and relaxing the muscles between the brows. This allows the forehead muscles to pull up the now-relaxed muscles between the brows, thereby elevating the brows and opening up the eyes.
The result is a more open, lifted look that refreshes your eyes and upper face without creating an artificial or overly arched effect. Unlike a surgical brow lift, this approach is minimally invasive, requires no recovery time, and can be fine-tuned over time for subtle, ongoing refinement.
The injectable brow lift treatment is quick and comfortable, often taking 15 to 30 minutes. After a detailed consultation and facial assessment, your aesthetic specialist will use a series of small injections to place the product at key points around the brow and forehead. A topical anesthetic may be applied beforehand for added comfort, and most of our guests find the treatment very tolerable.
There is little to no downtime, making this treatment a perfect fit for busy schedules. Some mild redness or swelling at the injection sites may occur, but typically resolves within a few hours. Results develop gradually over the following days, with the full effects visible in about 7 to 14 days.
As the brow begins to descend with age or muscle imbalance, it can shift how your entire face is perceived, making you look tired, tense, or less open. A non-surgical brow lift offers a gentle way to counteract these changes without altering your natural features. By using targeted Botox injections, we can improve brow position, symmetry, and the appearance of the upper face.
This treatment is ideal for addressing:
A non-surgical brow lift offers a beautiful balance of precision and restraint. It’s ideal for those who want to look more awake and uplifted without looking “done.” Because it’s non-surgical, the risks and recovery are minimal, and the outcome is easily adjustable over time. For many people, the greatest benefit is the boost in confidence that comes with seeing themselves more clearly—refreshed, relaxed, and more like themselves.
Most healthy adults with mild to moderate brow heaviness are excellent candidates for this treatment. A non-surgical brow lift is especially effective for those beginning to notice drooping at the brow tail or upper eyelid, but who are not ready for—or interested in—pursuing surgery. If you’re currently pregnant or breastfeeding, or have certain neuromuscular conditions, we may recommend postponing the procedure. During your consultation, we’ll review your goals, anatomy, and medical history to ensure this approach is safe and well-suited to your needs.
There’s virtually no recovery time after a non-surgical brow lift. You may experience minor swelling, pinpoint redness, or mild pressure at the injection sites, but these side effects typically subside quickly. Most people return to their day immediately after treatment. We do advise avoiding strenuous activity, alcohol, and heavy pressure on the treated area for the first 24 hours to reduce the risk of injection-site bruising and support optimal results.
Results begin to appear within 3 to 7 days, with full effects visible by two weeks. You can expect the brows to sit slightly higher, with improved shape and better eyelid exposure, without any sharp peaks or frozen expressions. The eyes look more awake, the face more rested, and the overall effect is subtle but significant. Results typically last 3 to 6 months and can be maintained with periodic touch-ups.
At Ageless Aesthetics, we believe the best results come from a deep understanding of anatomy and an appreciation for nuance. Our aesthetic specialists are extensively trained in facial mapping and injection techniques, ensuring each treatment feels balanced, precise, and individualized. We never overcorrect—we enhance what’s already beautiful. In every treatment, our priority is to help you look like yourself: just more rested, open, and at ease.
Results typically last between 3 and 6 months, depending on the product used and your body’s response. Regular maintenance treatments can help extend your results and even slow the formation of new lines and wrinkles.
Injectable treatments like a non-surgical brow lift have the advantage of requiring little to no downtime. Minor swelling or redness may occur, but most people return to daily activities right away.
Not at all. When performed properly, a non-surgical brow lift creates a soft, natural-looking lift without exaggerated correction or rigidity.
