I got ptosis repair on one eye and it corrected it a lot but it’s not completely like my non-ptotic eye. The lid still covers just a tad bit more than the pupil. I really don’t want to get surgery again. Can Botox or filler help? Is it injected into the lid itself?

Answer: Ptosis cannot be fixed with Botox/filler Hi - thank you for the question! Unfortunately ptosis cannot be corrected with wrinkle relaxers (Botox/Dysport/Xeomin) or filler. I cannot comment on your specific situation without a photo.

Answer: Upper Eyelid Ptosis Revision Nothing short of another operation will correct the residual asymmetry. However this is easier said than done. The fact that you have a minor asymmetry after your first operation is testament to the fact that this is a delicate operation where, in my experience, it is not always possible to get the two upper lids perfectly symmetrical... it may be best to cut your losses and live with it. If you find you can’t, at least you will approach any further intervention with your eyes open!
