Eyelids naturally heavy & sty may have left with with ptosis - best minimal procedure? (Photos)

Rubix_Cube
I've always had hypertrophied/triple excess skin on eyelids anyway but I've just recently had a stye and now I think i’m left with ptosis. It’s 95% gone but i’m afraid the ptosis will remain. The infected eye, the eyelid is not only bigger but darker and a bit red… what’s the best minimal procedure or based on my eyelids being naturally heavy should I have eyelid surgery anyway (blepharoplasty)?
