One year after blepharoplasty for ptosis and scar. More asymmetrical than before. What are my options now, if any? (Photo)

unhappy17
Born with congenital ptosis and jaw winking syndrome in my left eye. Nine years ago I had a ptosis repair. The surgery was not done well & left me with a large scar & still droopy. A year ago I went in to repair this the surgeon told me all I would need was ONLY a blepharoplasty to remove the scar. I am now even more asymmetrical than before. I’m worried nothing can be done because the amount of puffiness, scar tissue, & lack of skin left(I’m 22) but I’m desperate. I can’t live with this.
