Answer: Blepharoplasty asymmetry Hello and thanks for the question. From the photos, it does appear that you have some mild asymmetry. It is nearly impossible to have get eyelids look exactly the same after surgery, in fact a little bit of asymmetry is normal and probably existed before the surgery.

Answer: May have a mild ptosis of the left eye Although it's too early to judge your results, your left eye may have a weakness in the muscle that lifts the eye. Sometimes it is not obvious in mild cases such as yours to see it preoperatively. Give it some time before evaluating and keep your follow ups with your surgeon.

Answer: Not a bad result at 3 months. Of course perfect would be better. However, persistent swelling can make a difference. I totally agree that you need to give this time. So long as this is improving, I would give this time before trying to jump in with more surgery. That patience should extend out even a full year if necessary.

Answer: Causes for upper lid asymmetry after surgery Asymmetry after eyelid surgery can be the result of swelling. I agree with your surgeon that waiting 6 to 8 months to insure all swelling is resolved is appropriate before deciding whether any revision is necessary.
