1 year post upper bleph -- is the asymmetry fixable? (Photos)

courtneyatxNov 22, 2025
I had an upper bleph about a year ago and my eyes definitely look better. I had a facelift done about 6 weeks ago and therefore, have been taking more selfies and scrutinizing my face more than I usually would. I obviously have some pretty severe asymmetry post-bleph -- I knew this, but now I REALLY can see it. What I don't understand is -- was there too much taken out of the one side, or not enough out of the other side? Like is this fixable and if yes, what is the procedure to correct? Also, what is the rcovery for a bleph revison like? Is it worse than the original?
