Hi I have always had a bit of asymmetry but as I get older it has gotten much worse. I have had Botox and fillers but it never seems to really help.
Answer: Eyelid and eyebrow asymmetry Hello jessphila, thank you for your question. I highly recommend that you see a board certified plastic/ oculoplastic surgeon in person for a physical exam before a treatment plan can be made. You may have ptosis on your right eyelid that leads to compensatory brow elevation on your right side. If that is truly the case, ptosis repair and blepharoplasty alone should be able to restore some symmetry to your upper face. However, if brow asymmetry is not a result of ptosis, then an endoscopic brow lift +/- blepharoplasty may be the treatment of choice. Good luck!Goretti H. Taghva MD

CONTACT NOW Answer: Non-Surgical Chemical Brow Lift for Eyelid Rejuvenation -- add Ultherapy, Thread Lifting, RF Skin Tightening, Laser Treatments As we age, our eyelids naturally sag and droop. A combination approach would be best to see visible improvement. In terms of non-surgical treatment options, I would recommend a Chemical Brow Lift (using Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau) and filler injections to rejuvenate the temples, eyebrow, eyelid, eye troughs, upper eye hollows, and forehead. I typically combine this with Ultherapy and thread lifting to lift the brow; RF and skin tightening laser treatments to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenate the skin; and laser or superficial RF devices for improvements in texture, color, and any crepey skin around the eyes as needed. In some cases, surgery is the best solution to achieve the desired results. See an expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Asymmetry Correction You have ptosis of your right eyelid causing your asymmetry. You will require at a minimum a ptosis repair to improve the symmetry of the eyebrows and eyelids. I suggest consulting with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon with a good track record of successful ptosis repair and blepharoplasty procedures to find out which approach will work best for you. I hope this helps!

Answer: Brow Lift Thank you for your question. Botox and fillers are temporary solutions, and a brow lift, eyelid surgery or both have the potential to create greater symmetry as well as reduce signs of aging. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon. Best wishes,

Answer: Brow and eye lift to correct asymmetry The photographs demonstrate asymmetrical eyebrows, and asymmetrical upper eyelids. It's important to evaluate patients for ptosis, and address that issue if it is present. Botox on the higher eyebrow can attempt to bring that brow down on a temporary basis. Trying to adjust the opposite brow upwards would most likely make the patient looked too surprised. As long as there's no ptosis present, an upper blepharoplasty can be performed for cosmetic purposes to make the eyelids look more symmetrical
