I wear contact lenses (daily disposable) I asked a professional and they recommended Botox above the left eye in order to lower theybrow slightly for a £115 which seems very reasonable. What other procedures would be recommended? I’ve seen good results online with upper eyelid filler. Thanks

Answer: Need to come in to consult For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Botox and filler will not address your underlying issues. You have bilateral upper eyelid ptosis. You also have a compensatory eyebrow elevation. The side with the higher eyebrow has a somewhat heavier upper eyelid and elicits more eyebrow response. The fix for this situation is appropriate upper eyelid ptosis surgery. Most oculoplastic surgeons you will will offer posterior approach ptosis surgery (Mueller's Muscle Conjunctival Resection ptosis surgery). This is very popular among surgeons because the surgery is very quick to perform. However, in my opinion, this approach generally does not offer enough ptosis correction to fix the compensatory brow elevation. For this I find that the anterior levator resection ptosis repair is a much more effective surgery. There is no substitute for an in person assessment.
