How soon can I get incisional eyelid surgery?

I recently got non-incisional buried suture double eyelid surgery. I don't like the results. How long do I have to wait to remove the suture and have incisional upper blepharoplasty? I would like to know the timeline to get the revision. I heard the buried suture method has little scarring so wondering if I can do the revision soon. Thank you.
