What exactly is the problem with my eye/eyebrow and what can I do to fix it? (photo)

First off, you have attractive eyes and nice skin, and should be confident in those features! Every patient has asymmetries if we look close enough, and brow asymmetry is one of the most common. 
I would recommend starting with Botox. A skilled injector should be able to target the specific muscles that elevate and lower the brow to create the symmetry you desire. You need to decide with your surgeon (after performing a facial analysis) to determine which brow position looks best on your face, then work with the injectible to get the other brow to match. 
Surgery is also an option, but I would start with Botox in this case.
Hope this helps.
Best of luck,

Raising one brow higher than another is not an uncommon situation.  There could be some underlying muscle or nerve issue (very rare) that should be address by a doctor you do consultation with.  However, most common cause of this kind of asymmetry is just a persistent habit of overusing one side of your forehead muscle over the other.  No need to despair.  This kind of habit can be corrected with 1-3 treatments of Botox.Best wishes!

Thank you for the great question and photos!
While it is difficult to tell definitively from the photos it looks like you have some asymmetry of both your eyebrows and eyelids. The second photo it appears you may even have something called ptosis of the eyelid causing one side to droop slightly. It is important to note that this is different than some of the asymmetry some people can get as they age from excess skin or fat. It is equally important that this is identified and addressed because if not, any surgery could potentially make you asymmetry worse. Your best bet would be to schedule a consultation with a plastic surgeon familiar with the eyes/brows and these procedures.
I hope this helps and best of luck!

Thank you for your question and photo! Your are not alone. No one's face is perfectly symmetrical. Depending on the degree and longevity of results you are looking for from a procedure, you have both surgical and non-surgical options. I recommend a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon that is willing to discuss all your options available to reach your specific goals.  Best of luck!

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,

Hi,
From the photos you have provided, your right eyebrow appears to be in the correct anatomic position while the left brow is higher. This is likely due to over activity of the muscle that raises the eyebrow on the left. If that were the case, careful administration of botox/dysport to the left side can relax the muscle and return the brow to a more symmetric position relative to the right side.

Eyebrow asymmetry can often be improved with either a completely one-sided brow lift or a brow lift that raises one side more than the other. The method chosen will depend on what other issues you wish to correct. Since it will vary depending on your specific situation, a consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon is necessary to determine the best approach.

It is not uncommon to have some difference in brow position and movement. Independent controle of eyebrow movement is a gift that meny actors and actresses possess. You have to see a plastic surgeon to evaluate the function of the muscles involved in the brow position. The brow position depends on the tone of the frontal is muscle in the forehead, the lateral part of the orbicularis on the side of the eyes and the corrugator muscles between the eyebrows. Botox can be used to modify the tone of these muscles and change the brow position.

If you can only raise one brow, but not the other, it sounds like you might have a nerve or muscle dysfunction on the side that doesn't lift. I would recommend starting with a less invasive option, like botox to the forehead side that does lift if that side is higher. If you are only looking for a more long lasting option, can you get a surgical brow lift on the side that does not lift.

It’s not uncommon for patients to have asymmetric brows. Having said that, you have a number of options. One can use botox to elevate the lower eyebrow or lower the higher eyebrow. Botox is not permanent. This would need to be repeated after it wears off. A surgical option includes an endoscopic (mini scar) Brow Lift, which I helped to pioneer. Small incisions are hidden in ur scalp and your brows are elevated. The procedure typically takes less then an hour and recover tends to be fairly quick. I hope you find this information useful.
