I'm 25 years old man, my eyes were ok. It was just hooded and deep-set, I went for a upper eyelid blepharoplasty and fat grafting on both upper and lower lid. The operation result came out the exact the opposite of my expectation. Now my right eye is extremely droopy, I constantly have to keep my brow elevated to look normal. I can feel that my right eyelid muscle doesn't feel alright. Is it a ptosis? What can I do to improve my right eye? Can I do browlift with right eye repair?

Blepharoplasty is generally performed as a skin, muscle, and fat subtraction surgery. That will only skeletonize your upper eyelid. What you need is bilateral upper eyelid ptosis surgery with an anchor blepharoplasty. Your eyes can be your best feature.
It does not happen that way, fortunately. Conservative shin excision and fat bag reduction (if needed) should not change shape and size of the eye. In person consultation with a board certified plastic or oculoplastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.
