Facial asymmetries are extremely common in most of the population and, generally speaking, these differences do not prevent the face from having a pleasant, beautiful look.

How can facial asymmetries be identified?

These contrasts can, and should, be identified through photos and a physical examination, right at the first consultation.

When patients undergo eyelid surgery, the doctor will recommend the best technique to reduce the asymmetries.

Which techniques can the surgeon recommend to correct facial asymmetries?

For asymmetries between the eyelids, especially those involving the eyebrows, with one lower or higher than the other, the surgeon may recommend various surgical maneuvers, such as a brow lift, and even a combination of two techniques to achieve even more satisfying results.

Differences in measurements can be compensated for, reducing this asymmetry. Generally speaking, it is not possible to make both sides exactly the same, but it is perfectly possible to reduce the differences.
