i have congenital ptosis of the left eye, had 2 previous ops, i have just had a 3rd revision, this time it was over corrected a small amount intentionally, its been 10 days + still healing which i understand but it looks worse than before, the crease appears to be too high and more excess skin, it feels really heavy on the eyelash part of my lid, as i said I’m aware its still partially swollen, but i cant help but feel like this will be the end result. Would it be best to revise now or wait?
