Failed Ptosis Surgery - what are my next steps? I would like to have another surgery done ASAP (Photo)

Derek16
I had a mullerectomy done to correct the ptosis in my left eyelid 10 months ago. I am less than pleased with the result and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for next steps, as I would like to have another surgery done ASAP. I understand perfect symmetry is impossible to achieve...but this result is less than satisfactory and there is still noticeable drooping. I also want to mention that I use Upneeq, and have been using it since before my surgery. The result I get from using that is what I would like to see from a surgical procedure. I have included a picture of that as well for reference. Any feedback or advice is greatly appreciated.
