Do I need brow bone surgery or eye lid surgery? (Photos)

Question

Hello I am 27 years old my brow bone hangs really low and gives me eyes a sleepy angry look-the bone hangs so low my eyelid droops on the side with it, when I try and research how to fix it all I find are age related surgeries. Can someone tell me what’s wrong with my eyebrows / eyes and how I can fix it? Would it be Botox or if surgery then which procedure. I always look angry and sleepy everyone asks me what’s wrong when I am fine. Please help

You appear to have upper and lower eyelid retraction based on these photos, and one medical condition you would want to evaluate for is Thyroid Eye Disease.

See an Oculoplastic surgeon for a proper evaluation and recommendations.

It doesn't look that problem is in your bonny structures. Your brows seem to be pulled down by a strong corrugator muscles. This problem can be solved with Botox, to a certain degree, or brow lift, permanently. Your hairline seems to be high (?) which can also be corrected with same procedure if needed. There are few options to achieve improvement; a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, familiar with these procedures, is recommended. Good luck.
