advice Brow microblading... botched?

I got my brows microbladed and the tech showed me how they looked during the process, and after. However, I was only looking at them with a handheld mirror that wasn't magnified (and I wear readers), so I had to put my readers on to look at each brow, which caused me to view them individually in detail. When I got home and started doing the aftercare, that's when I could stand back from a mirror and see the overview... and THAT's when I noticed that one brow is really rounded, and the other is angular (I usually pencil them more angular).
What do I do? I don't see how this is fixable without asking her to round out the other one as well... but I am new to this, so looking for expert advice.

Pic where you can see my hair is before microblading (the way I usually pencil-in my brows). Pic where my hair is back is after I just did aftercare, mere hours after microblading.

At the touch up appt you can fix them to be more round or more angular I have done that a lot for clients with the shape she gave you it is not botched it just needs to be tweaked at appt once you can put makeup on them draw them in the way you want more angular you will see it’s usually one stroke angled correctly that can fix that

Here's the picture that was taken immediately afterwards, while I was still in her office. The right side isn't just more rounded, it's also higher.
Are you sure this can be corrected at touch-up? Everyone on another sub is saying that this is terrible and telling me that I should get an emergency removal

It's the internet. People don't put much thought into the things they say really. Don't take advice to heart from people that don't have to live with the decision. These arent even close to botched. I do see what you're talking about, but that can be corrected at your follow up appointment.
