My eyebrow is sagging. How can I fix it without surgery? (Photo)

December 9, 2015
Asked By:ThatOneBrow in Los Angeles, CA

My right eyebrow is starting to sag and it is getting worse. Somewhere over the past five years it has slowly started sagging. I can lift the eyebrow (together) but I can't lift it separately, however, I can lift the other one by itself. I tried Botox but all that was done was lower the left one. I don't want to lower my eyebrows but raise my "sagging" one. What can I do to raise that eyebrow? Does Botox not work? Do I need to work the muscle more?
