She wished to achieve a more symmetric look, she noticed a long standing asymmetry between her eyebrows and eyelids.  This is a very challenging case where one eyebrow and eyelid are lower than the other side, hence a modified endoscopic brow and a ptosis repair was performed.  Her entire approach was performed using incisions that are non visible and behind her scalp.  The patient is thrilled with her results.

This young female had a droopy left upper lid (ptosis), which was also resulting in eyebrows to be asymmetric. In many cases of ptosis, the eyebrow compensates to attempt to lift the lid, resulting in a brow asymmetry as well. A left upper lid ptosis repair was performed using a minimally invasive approach (no visible scars).  Note the improvement in her appearance and symmetry to the eyelids and the eyebrows.
