Can Excess Skin Between Brows After Eyelid Surgery Be Resolved?

Dear Notperfect
You kind got the blue plate special here.
It is quite possible that if you did not have both upper eyelid surgery and BOTOX at the same time you might be relatively satisfied with you results.
It is very important to understand that when the upper eyelid fold is heavy, the brain sends a signal to the forehead to lift the eyebrows. 100 percent of the time, when upper blepharoplasty is performed there is less need for the forehead muscles to work. They relax and the eyebrow comes down a little bit. Generally the overall effect is actually helpful because the relaxed brow is better for our appearance unless the fall in the eyebrow is a little too much.
Now, what does the forehead BOTOX do? It also relaxed the muscles in the forehead that lift the eyebrows. So no forehead lines but the brows go down. So between upper eyelid surgery and the BOTOX treatment, you have a double reason for the brow to fall. When the brow falls what you see is too much skin below the eyebrow.
Now the surgeon who answer questions here on Realself.com are generally very supportive of what other surgeons do. However, I think that the combo of the BOTOX and the upper eyelid surgery is not ideal. Should you rush out and do something? Do you need a surgical forehead lift? The answer is no. That BOTOX will wear off and when it does your eyebrows will go up reducing the amount of skin you are seeing. So try not to be too annoyed--things will get better!

Dear Not,
As you mention in your question, you have to wait. The Botox treatments throw in an extra variable to support that dictum. Now, you not only have swelling distorting things, you have the paralysis associated with the Botox treatments. This would explain the lateralization of your brows. You really need to be patient and continue close follow up with your surgeon. You won't have a realistic idea of your result until 6 months or so from now. Good luck!
