As I get older I notice more and more that I have uneven eyelids; my right one falls lower than the other and my left eyebrow is higher when I smile and I want to know if it's something to do with my facial muscles, the skin of my eyelid it's self and what I can do about it, please.
Answer: Uneven brows and lids Many different situations can lead to uneven eyelids. Some of these can be treated non-surgically and conservatively, even using some very advanced injection techniques with filler or very precise placement of Botox. Some situations truly do require surgery to resolve. It is important that you seek a consultation with an eyelid expert to delineate the exact cause and treatment options. To ensure you are receiving the highest level of care, seek out a modernly trained, new-school dermatologic surgeon, oculoplastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who is board certified and fellowship trained in one of these "core four" cosmetic specialties. Membership in organizations like the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery help to identify a highly trained surgeon. Cameron Chesnut #realself500 Physician

Answer: Make sure you're evaluated for possible ptosis before planning eyelid surgery It is difficult to tell from your photos, but you either have ptosis of the brow or ptosis of the upper eyelid. Either way, a consultation With a facial plastic surgeon or oculoplastic surgeon would help distinguish between the two. The important point is that prior to undergoing a procedure for your brow, be sure to at least have eyelid ptosis ruled out.

Answer: Uneven eyebrows Uneven eyebrows is often due to the body trying to compensate for a droopy eyelid. I would suggest being evaluated by an oculoplastic surgeon. Often fixing the drooping eyelid will fix the brow problem. Good Luck

Answer: Eyebrow asymmetry correction. For 35 years since we developed the Irregular Trichophytic Forehead Lift I have used a mini version so as to raise the brow without raising your hairline as will happen with an endobrowlift.. I almost NEVER use a lateral forehead lift since gravity works vertically and as you age you do not want the "evil" look created by many lateral brow lifts. In 20 years the ITFL can be repeated as you age without raising your hairline and it can actually be lowered using this technique.

Answer: Uneven eyebrows and eyelids A photograph demonstrates brow ptosis on the right side along with excess skin on the right eyelid as well. Asymmetries are very commonly treated like this with a combination of brow lift( hairline incision to shorten the forehead) and eyelid surgery. For many examples of both procedures, please see the link below
