One eye is more hooded and droopy than the other. What options are available to correct this?

Jj9602091
Over the last few years, my left eye has become more hooded and droopy than the right. I am wondering what the best treatment for this would be? Do hooding and droopiness require 2 different treatments? And lastly, would you suggest getting both eyes done (but more correction on the left), or just the left? Thank you.
