Male with naturally feminine-aligned brows

Ricardo Rodriguez, MD answers: Can a male's femininely aligned eyebrows be fixed?

I'm a male with naturally feminine-aligned brows, can this be corrected? My eyebrows are angled towards the center of the top of my nose. Is there a way to raise them at that part of the face only?. Don't need a Facelift or Eyelid recondstruction; just a very slight raise at the center of my eyebrows without raising the outer part. Thank you.

There is a set of three muscles in the central part of the brow (the procerus, with a vertical axis of contraction in the space between the brows right above the root of the nose; and the corrugators, with a diagonal axis of contraction going from the medial end of the brow towards the root of the nose) which bring the central brow down. They are overractive relative to the muscle that elevates the brow (Frontalis muscle).

An endoscopic division of these muscles  only will cause a physiologic elevation of the central brow as the frontalis muscle will elevate the central brow without opposition from the procerus and glabellar muscles.

Make sure you consult with somebody who is proficient with endoscopic techniques.
