Can you surgically bring the eyebrows closer towards the center of your face?

You can not surgically move your eyebrows inward without creating obvious scars. You will have settle for what a traditional browlift surgery can do...lift upward.

Dear Vanessarose,

From your description and clinical
history of weight loss, weight gain and brow malposition, you might well be a
candidate for brow lift surgery. Brow lift
surgery involves a small incision in the hairline and then a telescope that is
then used to elevate the eyebrows and forehead off the underlying structures
and then repositioned in an aesthetically pleasing fashion. During your consultation with your selected
plastic surgeon, the full depth and detail of the brow lift surgery should be
discussed.

I have been a certified plastic
surgeon and have been exclusively practicing cosmetic plastic surgery for the
past 20 years and endoscopic brow lift, eyelid and brow repositioning
procedures are very commonly performed in my practice. I would suggest a consultation where we
discuss your facial aesthetic goals and eyebrow positioning and contour
desires. After a full discussion of the
risks, benefits and recovery, as well as the cost, which include demonstrating
in front of the mirror the type of shapes that can be achieved, you can decide
whether endoscopic brow lift, eyebrow or brow repositioning surgery is for
you. Generally, seven days would be
required to recover and most of these procedures are performed under local
anaesthesia and oral sedation.

I trust this advice is of some
assistance and best of luck.
