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.

Although the decision for surgery usually relies on clinical indications, I suggest you consider less invasive approaches like Ultherapy of the lateral brow or Botulinun toxin of the eyebrow depressors.
