Answer: I'm not sure it will help your particular concern...
Hello Rivera,
Thanks for your question. Unless you think you are showing too much forehead, a reverse browlift would not be recommended by most surgeons. When I look at your picture, I can see the asymmetry that you describe, but in my opinion, it is the lower eyelids that look to be in need of revision. I see some lateral rounding which may indicate that you might need some type of lower lid tightening procedure to reduce prominence of your eyes. I think the upper lid on the right looks great and the left upper lid might have been ever so slightly over-corrected. Of course this is all conjecture as I have not seen you in real life. I agree that conversative measures are always a great place to start, such as Botox to try and reduce the height of your eyebrows. But beware, this may make it seem like your forehead is even bigger. I hope this answer helps.
Warmest regards,
Dr. Shah

Answer: Carefully placed Botox may reverse the effect of a brow lift.
I read your concern and reviewed the photo you posted,
You have a nice, unoperated appearance of your brows and upper eyelids. Are you waxing your upper eyebrows, or is that their natural shape? If you're waxing, don't remove so much brow hair by the eyebrow tails so you won't have as much of an arched appearance. If this is the natural shape of your eyebrows, consider a Botox treatment to lower them a bit. I would not suggest pursuing further forehead surgery.
All the best from NJ.
