Is there anything I can do to make sure my eyebrow isn't permanently raised and asymmetric? (photo)

Asked By:eyebrows125 in San Francisco, CA

Two nights ago, I received a facial blow that split the area just above my eyebrow. At the emergency room that night, I got stitches that seem to be putting my left eyebrow in an unnaturally raised position. I will schedule a meeting with a cosmetic surgeon ASAP, but in the meantime I'd like to know if there is anything you would personally recommend to ensure that I don't have a perpetually angry/quizzical expression on my face.
