    Personal experience, but I can only raise my left eyebrow on demand. Same with my upper lip. I cannot independently move those parts of the right side of my face no matter how I’ve tried. This has been true from childhood and I had no injuries I’m aware of that could have caused it.

    So from my experience, I’d buy that there is a physical, possibly genetic component to whether it’s possible or not.

      It’s my right side upper lip for me.

      I’m glad nobody is in the room with me. I’ve gotta look ridiculous.

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Edit: he came into the room just as I hit send on this one :-P

      I also can only raise my left eyebrow, but I learned to do it as a teen. Maybe I just got lucky and found the right nerve to trigger and am now very aware of where it is.
