Medial epicanthoplasty

Hello, It would be best to listen to the advice of your physician, as he/she knows the extent of your initial surgery and exactly what was performed.

Medial epicanthoplasty should be regarded as a high risk procedure.

Some surgeon believe that you don't have to make some one better, you needto make them different. From your photo, it is unclear that taking an inside fold to an outside fold will accomplish what you are looking to achieve. Using A Microdroplet Botox treatment will create lift along the brow and soften your angry expression.
