Here is one of the pictures I just took. Looking at the photo my right eye looks lower and crooked. Im just seeing what can be done both surgical and non surgical
Answer: Eyes crooked? The lighting is different between the sides which limits our ability to give suggestions but it appears there is very little asymmetry in your eyes. The tear trough/under-eye area on the right does appear to have volume loss/deficiency which could benefit from volume replacement. Hope that helps and best wishes, Dr. Donath

Answer: Eye Asymmetry I assume you have not had a Botox injection. Occasionally this can be seen after Botox. More than likely you were born with a slight asymmetry to the eyelids and I would recommend that before you go any further, to discuss this with your board-certified ophthalmologist and have a complete eye exam. There are some minor surgical procedures that can deal with eyelid asymmetry but first a diagnosis must be made.

Answer: Treatment for eyelid asymmetry Hello and thanks for your question. Causes of eyelid and facial asymmetry include bony/soft tissue asymmetry, different position of one of the eyes relative to the other, eyelid malposition and droopiness (ptosis), among others. In your case, the right eyelid is droopy (i.e. ptosis). You are also raising the right eyebrow to compensate. This can be corrected with a procedure called ptosis surgery to raise the eyelid to better match the other eye. See an oculoplastic specialist for a complete exam and best wishes.

Answer: Facial asymmetry Thank you for your photo and questions. Lack of perfect symmetry is the true normal. No patient is perfectly symmetrical before surgery and none will be after surgery. A number of years ago a plastic surgeon published the landmark paper about this. He took pictures of well known individuals of various ages and gender. He then showed the 3 images of each individual: the standard frontal view, then a right side combined with a mirror image to create a full face, and then a left sided face blended with the mirror image of that left side to show a full face. As a result we all recognized that the right side combined with the mirror image , and the same for a left side with mirror image both looked very different, and both looked different from the normal image. In fact this asymmetry adds interest to our faces. It cannot be corrected and would look artificial. Nothing needs to be done, unless there is a dramatic asymmetry caused by a paralysis or significant trauma. I hope that this will help you not to worry about a normal characteristic.
