What to do about asymmetry after Quick Lift?

I am very unhappy with my Quick Lift results. My face whole face is now asymmetrical, despite that my doctor thinks I look great. I don't like that I have a hugh lateral sweep on the left side of my lower face and sagging skin on the right side of my face. He is willing to lift the right side with an incision around my sideburn. Pulling up in that area does lift my face. Will that work? He also want to inject Lipossolve into the lateral sweep to flatten it out. I don't think this will work. What are my other options? What else can I do?

Right side with head tipped. Looser skin along the jawline
Neck bands do not look attached.
Here is a before picture taken with a window shining on the left side of my face. The nasial labia fold and marionette line on the right side are shadowed. So during surgery, the left side of my face was lifted. I woke up with a sagging right side.
