My eyebrows are symmetrical when I raise them but don't appear even when relaxed. (The right is lower) I'm wondering if I should have surgery done to correct this or if it is not noticeable. One photo is flipped because I took it on. The front camera. It is my right side I'm concerned about.
Answer: Asymmetric eyebrows? You do have asymmetric eyebrows. It is not a great deal and most people probably would not even notice this in you. You have a very high forehead and the hairline can be lowered if this is something that you wish and at the same time the low brow raised. See a very experienced brow lift surgeon who is skilled in lowering hairlines. This should be done with the Irregular Trichophytic forehead incision where the hair grows thru the scar and not behind it.

Answer: Brow ptosis You have one brow higher than the other. This makes the eyelid skin look asymmetrical. You could lift the lower brow to even this out. Your brows are pretty high already so don't want to be lifting too much. It also looks like you have a high forehead so need to take this into account if any surgery is done. You could use some Botox to drop the higher brow so the lids would look more even - but then both would look a little heavy. Really need an in person evaluation to decide what might be best.

Answer: No ptosis and certainly everything mentioned could be considered so you must decide on what will give you the look you want. Browlifts are not precise and mild asymmetry is normal. Skin excisions can help but also cannot predict your exact outcome. The most conservative option would be to use some type of procedure to tighten the skin such as resurfacing or external radiofrequency. I am NOT an Ulthera fan as it did not produce any results for my patients when I HAD it. If you decide to try such technologies, you should know what happens if you do not get the desired results? Will you get a second complimentary treatment? Or a partial refund? If your provider cannot give you some reassurances, then don't do it.

Answer: One brow higher than the other You could consider many of the things other doctors have suggested below, but one other thing to consider if you do not want to do surgery is to use Ultherapy. I would try Ultherapy focused only on the right side only to try to tighten the brow and forehead skin for a small lift. Results happen slowly over 3-6 months, but I have been impressed that we can get 2-3 mm of lift without cutting and no downtime! If you lift your forehead 2-3 mm and it fixes the way your eye looks, then I think you would be a good candidate for it.

Answer: Do I have extra eyelid skin or eyelid ptosis? Differences in eyebrow height and contour from one side to the other are very common. This can be related to eyelid ptosis, but most commonly is just reflective of normal variations in anatomy. Surgery (upper eyelid blepharoplasty) can be very useful for the hooding while botox injection is an excellent tool to improve brow symmetry and contour (see the link below)
