Will I need a correction if ptosis still present after surgery?

Question

I just had ptosis surgery on my right upper eyelid 9 days ago. I don’t see any results still see my eye droopy. it’s a bit swollen will it correct itself and open more or will I need correction?

It too early to judge your lid position as you still have some swelling.The swelling can change the position of the lid. Each of us has different amounts of swelling after surgery. Chances are you will be fine. Be sure to bring up your concerns with the surgeon during your follow up appointment.

Thank you for your question and your photos. You are still very early in your recovery process and because of this you should address and concerns in your healing with your surgeon. Good Luck.
