Ptosis and blepharoplasty revision surgery? 6 months post-op and not happy with the results. (photos)

elizabethmoyer
Hello! I am 6 months out from ptosis repair (internal, both eyes), upper blepharoplasty (both eyes), and lower blepharoplasty (right eye only.) It was a very hard recovery (intense swelling of the left eyelid, pieces of the silk thread used to lift the muscle coming out and scratching my eye), and I am not happy with the results. The original surgeon wants to do the exterior ptosis surgery on the left eye, but says the blepharoplasty work looks good. I disagree. Any thoughts? Thank you!
