What can be done to revise my canthoplasty? (Photo)

ashesofavalon
I developed a hematoma in one eye within hours of a canthoplasty 7 months ago. The stitches needed to be undone to allow it to drain and it healed like that. I went back a month later to have the surgery corrected. It's been 6 months since the revision and that eye is still droopy and a bit swollen. They want me to return for a final correction in 2 months (no charge), but I'm a bit nervous. There is excess scar tissue in the area and I'm wondering if it's even fixable?
