Can I Have the Central Brow Lifted?

Question

I had a blepheroplasty. The surgeon took too much off the outer aspect of the eye (I'm a man). The central brow has collapsed and I look really angry. Is it possible just to have the central aspect of the brow raised very slightly to remove the 'angry look' and make the eyes look more normal?
