Just wondering what options I have for my eyebrow and eyelid. Ideally, I'd like to match my left (your right) eyelid and eyebrow, as I like showing more lid and prefer the more arched brow. What are my longterm and short-term options? And yes, I've tried compensating with makeup but it's a pain in the butt! :) Thanks in advance!
Answer: Asymmetric eyelids and brows
Luckily, you included a photo without which all of us would just be guessing. I definitely agree that your left brow is higher because you are unconsciously correcting for a subtle ptosis left upper lid. You need to see an oculofacial specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Asymmetric and uneven eyebrows and eyelid Although it is often difficult to say exactly from one still photograph, there are several different treatment options available. If ptosis of the left upper eyelid is present (which it appears to be from the photograph), then correction of this ptosis may result in the left brow coming down on its own over time. Botox injections are another way to even the brows and make them more symmetric. Finally, brow lifting techniques could potentially be helpful, but should be a last resort option in this scenario. See a facial plastic surgeon, oculoplastic surgeon, or plastic surgeon focusing on facial aesthetics for a consultation to help sort out the details and options.All the best,

Answer: Facial Asymmetry & Facial Surgery There are multiple anatomic abnormalities that can result in facial asymmetry. These may include deformities of the orbital bones, eyelid soft tissue and eyebrows. In most cases, they are relatively minor, but in some cases they may be severe and extremely noticeable. Depending on the deformity, treatment may or may not be possible. Although, it’s hard to tell exactly what’s going on from your pictures, I suspect you have boney orbital asymmetry. It appears that on the side of your lowered brow, you also have a depressed orbital rim and flattened cheekbone. Asymmetry of the facial bones can be a major contributor to facial asymmetry. When this occurs it’s not unusual to have one side of the face that has a depressed orbital rim and flattened cheekbones and an eye that appears smaller than the opposite side. This is often related to a condition called plagiocephaly. When this situation arises, it’s possible in some cases to disguise the asymmetry. Unfortunately, it’s not possible to correct this deformity without major surgery. In this case a unilateral brow lift in combination with botox on the opposite side are both possible options. If you’re considering treatment, it’s important that you meet with a board certified plastic surgeon who can help you with this decision.

Answer: Eyelid ptosis and brow compensation
Hi. Your left brow is higher because your left upper eyelid is slightly droopy, so your brow is compensating and trying to raise your eyelid, thereby the brow is higher. The solution is not brow surgery but rather left upper lid ptosis surgery. There may be also component of bony facial asymmetry contributing to brow asymmetry. Consult an oculoplastic surgeon.
