20, puffiness/fullness between my eyebrows. Can a surgeon remove or fix this fat pad between my brows? (Photos)

Asked By:Warmhearted232128 in Louisville, Kentucky

I’m 20 and noticing puffiness/fullness between my eyebrows that looks aged or swollen. I’ve been under chronic stress, and my hormones are imbalanced (low progesterone, pregnenolone, etc.). Botox hasn’t helped, and it looks like fat or soft tissue bulging, not just muscle movement. Would a brow lift help? Or does it require fat pad sculpting/removal?

Brow lifts - so many to choose. Vertical Internal Brow Suspension. Is it well regarded?
Toby Mayer, MD says:

The Irregular Trichophytic Forehead Lift with or without hairline lowering I consider BEST! If properly done hair grows through the incision so this there is no scar seen with a hair pulled back! Not only can the brows be lifted, but the hairline can also be lowered if wanted. I have done more...

Cengizhan Ekizceli, MD says:

Thank you for your question. When neuromodulators and fillers don’t provide satisfactory results for deep glabellar furrows, surgical options like corrugator muscle excision can be highly effective, especially if your wrinkles are dynamic and muscle-driven.
