Facial palsy surgery

[Gemm1]

Hi there I have had facial palsy for 6yrs on the right side and have just had a platinum chain fitted in April aft previously having the gold weight which was too bulky. The platinum chain is flatter but has made my eye lid droop and look square instead of rounded so I'm really disappointed as it looks a lot worse than before having the surgery. I'm due to have the muscle lifted in my eyelid To help it look more even and rounded in two weeks and Im really worried as the other two surgeries didn't go well. Has any one else found this or had similar done? I really wish I hadn't started with any surgery and had the option of physio from the start I really think from doing the physio which I've only been doing since Christmas has helped hugely. Any feedback would be much appreciated thanks

A year after facial palsy I had chain fitted to make my eye shut too. Then I had surgery to lift the muscle as the eyelid drooped. That was over a year ago and the eye looks worse than ever. Don't have any more surgery.
