Poor blepharoplasty result from 2021. What are my options? (Photos)

RSProfile264587
I had an upper blepharoplasty in December of 2021 by an oculoplastic surgeon, and am still experiencing complications. The result is uneven, but I am experiencing swelling on one eyelid that sometimes subsides throughout the day, but oftentimes persists. The surgeon told me that it’s no cause for concern and to reduce the amount of salt I consume (and I have), but I used to model for work and this has severely affected my ability to work consistently. Please help.
