One of my eyebrows is much higher than the other. It alters my smile and face and leaves me looking weird or disfigured in pictures and in person. It comes out especially when I smile, and the more facial expression I use, the worse it gets. It is noticeable when relaxed and almost feels like one side is constantly raised. I can even raise that sides eyebrow but not the other It makes me EXTREMELY sad and self conscious. Is this fixable and what exactly is the problem?

Answer: Brow movement differences First of all, it is important to determine whether the facial nerve that controls forehead movement is functioning normally. This is something that would need to be determined during a consultation and physical exam. If the nerve is functioning properly but not as strong on one side, Botox injections can commonly be used to correct (or at least improve) brow asymmetry. Certain brow lifting techniques can also help improve brow asymmetry, but the techniques required are generally not recommended in younger patients.See a facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who specializes in facial aesthetics.All the best,
