Can a Drill Hole Canthoplasty Be Revised or Reversed?

I have asymmetry, strange twisted, bunching of extra cheek skin, severe suture dents, scarring and eyebrow pstosis (which I didnt' have before). I'm 3 months post op now. The big eye still stings. The small eye is too tight and almost feels like scar tissue is tacking it down to the muscle or bone. Is there help out there?
