 Unfortunately, you do not say what technique was used for your "brow pexy".  It is possible that some of these procedures may accentuate certain defects that were present preoperatively, or, alternatively, cause a degree of atrophy of the soft tissues in some areas, depending on the techniques employed. At this juncture, you would be best served by undergoing fat transfer to the affected area.

In general, it is advisable for the surgeon performing this procedure to "over-correct" this area, anticipating that not all of the transferred fat will survive. It is also important for you to know that complete correction and contouring of this area may require more than a single fat transfer procedure, but in the hands of a surgeon experienced with fat grafting techniques, the likelihood of your ultimately attaining a satsifactory result is good.

Thank you for the photos. This is a small area of depression, but quite obvious. It is easily corrected with micro fat graft injections to get a permanent or long lasting result.This can be done under local anesthesia with no down time. Talk to your surgeon about this. Good luck. 

This is a slight in the bone in this area in my opinion.  Nothing is removed in the location with a brow lift  unless something else was performed with the the procedure that you had.  This area can be easily filled with fat injections or more temporary products to see if you like the result.

It looks like some fat may have been removed or the "brow pexy" technique caused some atrophy (shrinkage) of the sub brow fat. Your best options would be a long lasting filler or a fat injection. Neither of these is likely to be permanent, but should offer significant improvement with minimal downtime or hassle.
