Lower eyelids are droopy after Blepharoplasty. (photo)

Shoko
Dear Doctors, I am 2 weeks post-op lower and upper eyelid. The lower eyelids are droopy and the right lower eyelid is still very swollen . do you think it shall pass with time or will I need to fix it with more surgery? if more surgery, which one and how long should I wait before having it (my Doctor says canthopexy in one year but it is frustrating to wait so long) please kindly explain the surgery and healing process and how long it usually takes. Thank you!
