How do I fix overcorrected and asymmetrical endoscopic temporal brow lift? (photos)

Question

Over 6 months ago I had an endoscopic temporal brow lift. One side was over corrected, presuming it would fall, it is asymmetrical and too high. That side tunnels were drilled. I was unadvised of this fact prior to surgery and I am upset. Both brows have elevated significantly instead of dropping. This looks unnatural and is causing significant upper lid hollows and is exposing previous surgery incision scars. Eye shape has changed for the worse. What can be done to correct this? Very unhappy.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Unfortunately the effects of Endoscopic Brow Lift after six months are, after some degree, irreversible. It is important to understand the technique and why one side was elevated more. The difficulty I have is that the pictures do no show the whole area so I cannot help you any further.
