Plastic surgeon vs. oculoplastic surgeon for ptosis repair? (photo)

Asked By:Jay7032 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada

I have droopy eyelids that I want to get lifted. My understanding is that it's called ptosis and the surgery is called ptosis repair. A couple of years ago, I got a chin implant and I'd like to go back to that doctor if possible as he was very good. That doctor does blepharoplasty, so would it be safe to assume he would also do ptosis repair? Or is it necessary to go to an oculoplastic surgeon?
