What Surgeons Have Experience with Asian Upper Eyelid Surgery Revision? Do I Need an Oculoplastic Surgeon?

I had a rather aggressive upper eyelid asian blepharoplasty ( full incision,sutures) 20yrs ago. Fat, skin & muscle removed resulting in hollowing. One eye doesn't close well. Originally, I had straight crease, like the bottom pie half now I have a downward curved semilunar crease.
