Asked By:Need_a_Good_Doc in Burbank, CA

I used to have tapered double eyelids that flared out at the end, but after double eyelid surgery a year ago, the doctor reversed my eyelid shape & made it very low at the end. Can this be reversed? 1. If the incision is cut very low and long past the eye, how can the crease become higher? Wouldn’t that make my eyelashes and waterline evert up? 2. My overall eyelid area below crease is so much smaller. Can this be reversed? 3. Why is left eye crease loose & right deep and tight?
