I had 2 blepharoplasty‘s with local anaesthetic the 1st one made no difference & neither did the 2nd.

From the before and after 2nd surgery picture do you think I need a brow lift? If so shouldn’t I have been told that before taking my money? Should I ask for my money back or a 3rd surgery? He didn’t charge me for the 2nd surgery. Not sure what to do!
