Too much lid showing after eyelid surgery, how can I fix this?

December 30, 2015
Asked By:kimberlyann821 in San Clemente, CA

I had upper eyelid surgery 4 months ago and after all the swelling and everything has gone down I notice I have to much lid and I hate the way it looks. I wanted just a subtle change and a little skin removed from the outer edges that were heavy. My eyes now look completely different. What can I do to reverse this surgery and have less lid showing?
