Corners of my eyes are hidden below upper lids after lower bleph creating an undesirable look? (Photos)

August 28, 2016
Asked By:Jomojo in Newcastle Upon Tyne, GB

8 days after lower bleph. Stitch in the outer corners of the eye (not sure of the correct term maybe canthopexy?) has caused the corners of my eyes to be hidden or tucked under my upper lids. It makes my upper lids look a bit pulled down and has created creases at the sides of both eyes. Can this be tweaked?
