Upper-face movement assessment in Business Bay
Upper-face Botox in Dubai, planned around expression
Forehead, frown-line, and eye-area movement are assessed together so the plan can soften selected lines while considering brow position and natural expression.

Three areas, one movement balance
The position and strength of each muscle group can affect the others, particularly around the brows.
Swipe through the areasForehead
Horizontal lines appear as the brows lift and the frontalis muscle contracts.
Between the brows
Glabellar or frown lines become more visible with concentration or frowning.
Crow’s feet
Lines at the outer eye become more visible when smiling or squinting.
At a glance
Upper-face treatment begins with eyebrow and eye movement
The forehead, muscles between the brows, and muscles around the eyes work as a connected system. The clinician compares movement, resting lines, brow position, and symmetry before discussing placement.
The treatment plan follows the movement assessment and agreed degree of change.
Movement assessment first
Brow position, symmetry, and expression are reviewed before treatment.
Usually 30–45 minutes
Timing includes consultation, assessment, and the agreed treatment plan.
Initial change within days
The response usually develops progressively rather than immediately.
Often 4–6 months
Duration varies by muscle activity, area, product, and individual response.
Little downtime for many patients
Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising can still occur.
Botulinum-toxin products have different units and are not interchangeable. Mahan uses Nabota, BOTOX by Allergan, and Dysport; your clinician selects the product and plan after assessment.
Choosing the right approach
Which upper-face concerns are movement-led?
Botulinum toxin is mainly discussed for lines created or deepened by muscle movement. Lines that remain at rest or concerns involving volume and skin quality may need a different conversation.
Often discussed for
- Forehead lines visible with brow movement
- Frown lines between the brows
- Crow’s feet visible when smiling
- A measured discussion about upper-face balance
May need another approach
- Under-eye hollowing or lost facial volume
- Skin dehydration or texture concerns
- Every line visible when the face is fully at rest
- A guaranteed brow position or identical result

Suitability & safety
Important details to share with your clinician
Botulinum toxin is a prescription treatment and is not suitable for everyone. Your clinician reviews relevant health information, medicines, previous treatment, and area-specific risks.
- Discuss pregnancy or breastfeeding, infection near the area, allergies, neuromuscular conditions, medicines, and previous botulinum-toxin treatment.
- Possible effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, headache, asymmetry, eyelid droop, or brow droop.
- Follow the clinician’s written aftercare rather than generic instructions because the advice may vary with your treatment plan.
Urgent: Seek urgent medical attention for difficulty swallowing, speaking, or breathing after treatment.

Questions, answered
Upper-face Botox FAQs
Useful general information first; a clinician can then make it specific to you.
Which areas count as the upper face?
The upper face commonly includes the forehead, the area between the brows, and the outer eye area. The clinician decides which areas are suitable after assessing movement.
Can treating the forehead affect my brows?
Forehead and brow muscles interact. This is why brow position and muscle strength are assessed before placement and why treatment is not planned from a standard pattern.
Do all three areas need to be treated?
No. The assessment covers the upper-face system, but only suitable areas that support the agreed goal are included.
When might I notice a change?
Initial change may begin within a few days and usually develops during the first one to two weeks. Timing varies.
How long can it last?
Upper-face effects are often discussed in the range of four to six months, with variation between muscles and individuals.
How do I arrange a consultation?
