From your description it is not possible to determine what exactly is going on. Please submit a photograph to this forum. You will be more likely to get some suggestions.
A photo would be beneficial. My reaction about sagging of the eyelid after surgery is always whether the procedure should have been accompanied by an internal brow plication or formal brow lift. This is frequently the case but patients have trepidation about the brow lift and opt for the eye...
I think you have a tendency for your lower eyelid to retract and so when the doctor does your eyes he amy want to tighten the lower lid with a canthoplasty or canthopexy.Fat addition would help as well.
