On 1/8/14,I had a forehead, lower Blepharoplasty, and neck lift. Two days after I had my facelift, my right eyebrow and eyelid dropped, close to the position they were before surgery. This resulted in eyebrow asymmetry, and eyelid hooding like I had prior to surgery. Most distressingly, I developed an elevated one inch vein, which appears as a large wrinkle or scar on my right lateral orbit. It is very obvious and makeup only increases it's appearance. Why did I developed these complications? Thank you.

Probably not. Also, if you have a very high hairline an endoscopic approach is not so ideal due to the curvature and distance encountered. Typically, in cases such as yours, I would use a hairline incision to preserve or even lower the hairline.
There can be no guarantee of the result of any cosmetic operation. The idea of brow lifting by any technique is to get the desired brow position and have undetectable scarring. All approaches can get this and all can have potential side effects.
This can be from corrugater muscle resection or just due to asymmetric muscle contraction from a corrugater or frontalis interruption. This area is hazardous to inject with fat or filler, as complications such as blindness (which are rare) are possible, but unlikely....
