Blepharoplasty reversible? Did I need brow ptosis repair instead of eye ptosis repair? (Photo)

peachy.chrissyDec 29, 2022
My eye surgeon performed eye ptosis surgery. After research, i believe i needed brow ptosis surgery instead of eye ptosis surgery. A few eye doctors informed me i need brow ptosis surgery now. Is blepharoplasty reversable? I can’t even look in the mirror and i’m 24 years old. First picture is before surgery. Second picture is before surgery with tight pony tail to lift my eyebrows. Third picture is after surgery. Did I only need eyebrow ptosis fixed??
