Excess hooding post Double Eyelid Surgery. What surgeries do I need to make my eyes look more open? (Photo)

Polite693325Aug 11, 2021
I had an Asian double eyelid surgery 6 months ago. There is still excess hooding and my crease is not visible. Also my eyes look closed and asymmetrical. What surgeries are needed to make my eyes look more open, with visible crease, and symmetrical? Do I need ptosis repair + lower brow lift? Also my lower right eye is too high - would lower blepharoplasty fix this?
