Lateral Eyebrow Lifting and Eye-Opening Point Injection With Botulinum Neurotoxin: Anatomical Perspective

Targeting the edge of the superolateral orbital rim for botulinum neurotoxin injections effectively reduces involuntary muscle contractions, facilitating easier eye-opening and eyebrow lifting. The anatomic specificity of this site minimizes risks to surrounding muscles. These findings suggest potential clinical applications for enhancing eyelid function and esthetic outcomes. Further research with larger samples and long-term studies is recommended to validate these results and explore additional benefits.

Abstract

Targeting the edge of the superolateral orbital rim for botulinum neurotoxin injections effectively reduces involuntary muscle contractions, facilitating easier eye-opening and eyebrow lifting. The anatomic specificity of this site minimizes risks to surrounding muscles. These findings suggest potential clinical applications for enhancing eyelid function and esthetic outcomes. Further research with larger samples and long-term studies is recommended to validate these results and explore additional benefits.
