Failed Canthoplasty 8 Weeks Ago, No Results, Suggests Canthopexy?

Asked By:Rosethepose022 in Scotland, United Kingdom

I had a canthoplasty on my right eye 8 weeks ago to correct a mild ectropion after a lower blepharoplasty went wrong. During the last two weeks my eye has gone back down again and looks the same as it did before. I am going back to see the oculoplastic surgeon who performed my canthoplasty but not my blepharoplasty. He suggested I may need a canthopexy? I am very concerned about this as I do not want to go through another op that could fail or even make things worse. Please help what should do?
