Asymmetrical After Eyelift Surgery?
I'm quite worried that my eyelids will not heal properly. With my eyes open the right eye brow sits noticeably higher as if the surgeon did not cut enough from the right eyelid. With my eyes closed it seems thats the case. I asked my surgeon but he says that after the swelling heals it will be normal

The eyebrows are asymmetric, not the eyelids
When looking at your photo, assuming that your head was straight, the distance from the incision to your eyelashes is the same.

You still have bruising from the surgery. It is way too early to be looking at the results. It takes weeks for the effects of swelling, bruising, muscle weakness, etc. to abate. I ask my patients to not look at their results too critically for at least 6 weeks, especially the eyelids where a millimeter or two of temporary difference can be very noticeable.

You are still early from eyelid surgery
Time is an amazing thing. Almost every issue after eyelid surgery gets better in time. Eyebrow position after eyelid surgery is a funny thing. Even a little asymmetric swelling can stimulate one eyebrow to rest a little higher than the other. Occasionally it turns out that the eyebrow asymmetry is present prior to surgery but no one notices. I make a point of looking for eyebrow asymmetry and talking about it prior to eyelid surgery otherwise it is natural...
