Am I a candidate for a unilateral brow lift? (Photo)

Question

My eyebrows are very asymmetrical and it really bothers me. I'd like to raise my right brow so that it's as high as the left one. I saw a doctor who said he couldn't raise it with botox because it was the bones that caused the asymetry. Am I a candidate for a unilateral brow lift ?

Based on this photo, you could expect that properly performed endoscopic brow lift with suspension, would significantly improve brow asymmetry. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, familiar with this procedure, is recommended.

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.

Thank you for submitting your question and photo. Botox is generally recommended to achieve brow symmetry when an overactive muscle is the underlying factor. In cases where the bone structure or skin laxity causes the brows to look asymmetrical, a brow lift can provide substantial results. 
Though absolute symmetry is difficult to obtain, this procedure can elevate the lower brow and provide the more even alignment you’re looking for. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can assess your aesthetic goals and recommend the most beneficial procedure.
