I'm a 19 years old female. I noticed one of my eyes seems to be more hooded then the other. I rarely take pictures of myself so it could've been from long before that and I hadn't really looked in the mirror that closely. I looked and realized one of my eyebrows is lower and it's making the skin cover my crease. I checked photos from a few years ago and my face was symmetrical. I also noticed fine lines under both of my eyes, like a web? It's not from dehydration or lack of sleep.

Answer: Eyelid asymmetry at 19 It is possible to have typical causes of eyebrow ptosis at any age. Facial asymmetry is likely the underlying cause, but other factors should be excluded prior to treatment. An examination should be able to asses and make sure that facial nerve weakness, eyelid ptosis, or other neurological conditions do not underly your issue. Provided that is the case, a simple upper eyelid lift should be able to help you regain symmetry.

Answer: Droopy brow at 19 y.o. True brow falling can occur in any one. True brow ptosis most commonly occurs as people get older. At your age, if you have true brow ptosis it is most probably a familial or congenital condition. Other rarer conditions like trauma or facial nerve injury can also produce this look. Therefore it is very important for you to have an accurate diagnosis before any treatment is planned.

Answer: Review old photos I would recommend first looking closer at other old photos to see if this is a really new change or something that has been going on for quite some time. Almost everyone has some facial asymmetry with one side of your face being the longer and taller side and the other being the shorter and and wider side. This can manifest by one eye, eyelid, or eyebrow appearing more prominent that than the other side. As you have already done some of those, I would schedule with oculoplastic/orbital surgeon to review the photos with you to get a full orbital and eye examination and determine if any further testing is necessary.
