Can I have Botox before Ptosis surgery?

soulboy
I am due to have repeat Ptosis surgery on my left eye as it didn't work the first time or was not lifted enough. I would like to have some Botox. Will the Botox affect the Ptosis surgery in anyway way or could the surgeon refuse to preform the surgery if I knows I've had Botox?
