I had upper/lower blepharoplasty 12 days ago. I’m concerned that my R & L eye do not look the same, as the R eye looks like it developed ptosis post-surgery. The dr says I have more swelling in the R eye (also had chemosis) and I need to give it time. He attributes the difference in the eyes to a “weak” orbicularis muscle because it is cut (?) during surgery, but he says with time, that both eyes will even out. Is this possible? Or will I need revision surgery to correct the ptosis?
