Peak eyelid contour 5 weeks ptosis post-op: do I need a revision? (Photo)

February 7, 2018
Asked By:vagnetic in New York, NY

Dear doctors! Im 5 week post ptosis surgery on both eyes.. it has a weird peak pointy shape. I told my surgeon to fix it at 10 days but he said it will look fine.. but i dont see improvement in the peak area at all and i dont see any body have peak contour early in their recovery.. do you think this is normal in ptosis surgery and that it will resolve and the contour is round again?
