Ptosis correction- post surgery second opinions pls

Due to covid19 travel restrictions I decided to do my Ptosis correction in Singapore. I had my surgery on September 16 and today 10 days after surgery, my right eye seems over corrected.
The asymmetrical right eye is gnawing at my heart everytime I look at the mirror.
Appreciate advice from professional and recovered Ptosis patients so that I can have a better understanding of what come may down the road.
Attached are photos within this 10 days after my surgery today, September 24

Give it 3-6 weeks to settle, and at least a few months before you seek an opinion to do a revision surgery. The first two weeks are the most crucial to healing, and not everyone heals in the same linear way, so relax and continue your post-surgery care for now!

Sure ok thanks. But the imbalance is so obvious, I am feeling so sad

You have to wait for it to settle a bit. When i got mine it felt like too much wind was in my eye hahaha but it went away over a few month. Try to be patient

After much fuss then doctor agrees to see me earlier and confirms that my eye is over corrected.

He says that he redo it for me

But I realise that my double eyelid is now not balance, I am quite upset to be honest.

I trusted that doctor but ended up it is like that

Overcorrection

I know I have to be patient but I know from the look of my post surgery is that I will never have a set of eyes balance ever again.

I am very upset to be honest.

I know that Ptosis is a very delicate surgery but I just didn’t expect after 2 surgery I look so weird now.

I think Omicron will brings on another lockdown, I will only redo my eyes in Korea. My heart cannot take this. I am very disappointed
