You do not appear to have extra eyelid skin. The hollowing on the left upper eyelid is often associated with ptosis, although you don't have significantly low eyelid position. You may have mild ptosis on both sides. Your best bet is to have an in-person oculoplastic evaluation.
Looks you don’t have a defined eyelid crease on the left side. This may be a sign of ptosis. You should have an evaluation by an Oculoplastic surgeon in your area. Thank you for your question.

As suggested, an exam by an oculopastic specialist may be helpful.
Thank you very much for the photo. It would be really helpful to see another photo go you looking straight ahead. To me the downgaze photo you published seems to show even upper eyelid height but a difference in the skin crease height.

I do not think you had botched eyelid surgery based on the photo you have posted but best to seek in person consultation for more accurate evaluation.
Thank you for sharing your question. Typically, ptosis can change appearance during the day. Fatigue can worsen it. On occasion, it can be related to a medical condition. Please see an Oculoplastic Surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and guidance.Good luck,
Need examination to better help you but it does appear you have persistent right upper eyelid ptosis and revision eyelid ptosis surgery should be considered. Revision ptosis surgery also has to deal with existing scar tissue and I use a very special technique for that.
I have not in 19 years of practice and an oculoplastic surgeon personally seen chronic sinusitis cause Ptosis. However, as long as other serious neurologic causes have been ruled out, then it is possible the sinusitis is causing it. I would wait to have your sinus treated, and if the ptosis p...
