No Eyebrow Movement Following Plastic Surgery to Repair of MOHS Procedure?

September 6, 2012
Asked By:Amazing7 in Indiana

2 weeks ago, I had plastic surgery to repair a dime size hole in my forhead located just right of the midline on my forehead. The repair was necessary, as I had a MOHS procedure the day prior for basal cell removal. I just noticed that my right eyebrow is not working at all now, only my left side comes up when I move my eyebrows. I love my plastic surgeon but he did not warn me of this happening. I can feel the forehead when I touch it. Does this seems typical and are the outcomes for full recovery good?
