What went wrong with my blepharoplasty & how can I fix it? I don't look better than I did before. I look worse! (Photos)

mn1979
I had an upper blepharoplasty over 1 year ago- closer to 2 years. Supposedly only skin was removed. I don't understand why my eyelids look worse than before I had it done. The doctor thinks he did a great job & claims my lids were assymetrical prior to surgery. As you can see in his own pre op photos, that's not true. I regret doing this & am deeply distrustful now. I don't want to go under the knife again but realize I may have to. Can someone tell me what happened here & what I could do?
