Which procedure would correct folds caused by lower blepharoplasty? 3 years post op (photos)

Question

Hello. Hoping a doctor can give me ideas for fixing skin folds that were created from lower transconjunctival Blepharoplasty, performed almost 3 yrs ago. Right eye has much more noticeable creases, then left eye. It seems everything was pulled so tight skin pulls away like a bellybutton’s crease. Also left with blepharitis, tho not in this discussion. It seems deep tuck also caused moon pad on upper cheek. Im lopsided. So, laser or surgery? Help

Any treatment that would break up this scar, generally termed a "local tissue rearrangement," should help this area. The scar may no longer be straight, but it would likely be less prominent than your current scar. Although hard to tell without an in person physical exam, a regular scar revision with excision and reclosure could also help.

The information you’ve included, makes difficult to make a quality assessment.
To make an assessment regarding the outcome of any plastic surgery procedure we need to see a complete set of proper before and after pictures great
If you don’t have before and after pictures, then ask your surgeon to forward the pictures they took.
We need standard pictures.
 I suggest you get in person. Second opinion consultations and avoid doing this virtually.
Considered consulting with Akio plastic surgeons in your community to see what they have to say and they are recommendations.
From the pictures you included appears you had a transcutaneous lower eyelid blepharoplasty not Trans conjunctival Best,
