I had an upper blepharoplasty done last year. I've waited & consulted w the doctor about my dissatisfaction w the amount of overhang & assymetry over my left eye (right in photo). He doesn't seem to think it's an issue but will take a small amount of additional skin off in a small revision for a small fee. I feel like he thinks I'm nuts or bein obsessive but it's MY FACE & it wasn't this assymetrical prior! I'm attaching photos. Please share your thoughts. Thank you!
