34, how can I correct facial asymmetry that is getting worse? (Photo)

AcneScarsSep 10, 2023
As I’ve aged (I’m now 34) I’ve notice the asymmetry in my face getting worse. As you can see in the photo, the right side of my face looks significantly older. My right eyebrow and lower eyelid droop downwards, and my right smile muscle are lazy which causes my smile to look lopsided and more wrinkles/sagging around my smile line. What can I do to correct this? Am I right that I would need a brow lift, blepharoplasty and a mini facelift on that side? Or are there less invasive options?

Theoretically yes... this could be done. But I don't believe it is currently being done. It would also be way easier to do the frontalis as opposed to the corrugators. I don't think it would necessarily look cosmetically elegant.

I recommend you botox treatment. However it is a temporary solution. If you would rather something permanent you can get a browlift. There are some types of browlift which will be very suitable for your case.

Unfortunately, there is no replacement for functional muscles in the forehead. If there is a need for shape correction (which is not visible in your photos), fillers and/or fat grafts may be considered. Hope this helps.
