Is it possible to surgically lower the height of eyebrows? (photo)

June 26, 2017
Asked By:coquelicot in Los Angeles, CA

My eyebrows are very high up my face and it disturbs the overall facial proportions. They remind me of clown eyebrows. I want to lower them surgically by a good couple of millimeters. I'm not interested in botox or any temporary options. It is possible to cut below the eyebrow and remove a piece of skin and then stitch it up? Kind of in the same method as a lip lift.
