Which type of eyebrow lift would be best for my face? (Photo)

Question

I have scoliosis, which has made my face asymmetrical, and I have low brows with a large forehead. Please could someone advise which procedure would be best for lifting my eyebrows ?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

To give the eyebrows a nice lift, we use injectable fillers to improve the eyebrow, upper eye, forehead and temple. A filler is placed on the bone and in the fat pads of these areas to contour and lift without it looking overdone. We use cannulas to limit pain and swelling. I suggest getting a formal consultation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Your photo reveals that your orbits, the bony sockets in which the eyeball resides, are asymmetric, the right being larger than the left.  You also demonstrate bilateral ptosis of the upper eyelids, greater on the left than the right.  Additionally, as you point out, your left brow sits lower than the right brow.  I suspect that a CT scan would reveal that some of the soft tissue asymmetry we are seeing is due underlying asymmetry of the facial skeleton, so the achievement of ideal symmetry will not be possible without craniofacial procedures to address the bone.   
However, short of this, there are some soft tissue procedures that could address the issues we have identified.  First, bilateral ptosis correction of the upper eyelids, could open up your eyes, and make you look a bit less “sleepy”.  The asymmetry of your brows could be addressed with an endoscopic browlift.  If a preoperative visual field test indicated that your eyelid ptosis has limited your peripheral vision, it may be theoretically possible for your health insurance policy to pay for some of the cost of these procedures.

Thank you for your question and photo. You are likely a candidate for an endoscopic brow lift to raise the brows and improve facial symmetry. During this procedure, a few small incisions are placed near the hairline to lift the skin of the forehead and the eyebrows.
Lifting the eyebrows can make your eyes appear brighter and more open, with results lasting approximately 5-10 years. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can assess your needs and help you decide on the best treatment option.

Hello. You also have ptosis in your upper eyelids. I recommend that a ptosis surgery combined with endoscopic eyebrow lift to be performed together with forehead reduction surgery will recover your tired appearance and contribute to correcting your symmetry.  You can also book an online consultation and discuss your problems with me. With all respect.

Hello @chloe4x, thank you for your question. I would not recommend a brow lift due to the high eye socket and that the forehead is high. You don't need one. I also do not see the eyelid falling over the palpeolar line with the eye open. To improve the proportion I would suggest botox and a non-surgical treatment to help harmonize the two sides. By applying a larger amount on one right side of the eyebrow, you can lift it a little more. It is important that you have a consultation with a board certified specialist to determine a non surgical protocol. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

You are very pretty!
If you are interested in decreasing the size of your forehead and lifting your brows, I would recommend a pre-trichial brow lift +/- hairline advancement. 
If you are not bothered by the size of your forehead (I only mention this as you mentioned it in your question), then and endoscopic brow lift +/- temporal lift can be performed, but depending on the bony and soft tissue structures of the forehead and orbital bones, fat grafting my be necessary as well. 
Best of luck,Rosa B Lipin, MD
