What Do I Do About Bumps Along Suture Line (Stitches Out) Post-lower Bleph?

I had lower blepharoplasty two weeks ago, and the dr. removed the stitches 5 days later. I have a line of bumps along the suture line of both eyes. What can I do to make these go away? Can the dr. remove them at this point?

A: bumps post eyelid surgery

Its too early for anything.  These small "bumps" should resolve on their own.  THere is no need to apply any medications or ointments in my opinion. I would simply apply scar cream and gently massage that area with a q tip.  This will allow the scar area to soften with time.  If you are too aggressive it may lead to more problems in my opinion.  Be patient.

Does this look over-corrected?

I am meeting with my surgeon tomorrow and would appreciate objective viewpoints prior to discussion. My surgeon tightened levator muscles of eye on the left four days ago. However, eyes are now asynmetrical shape with much more pronounced in real life (i.e.bulging). The lift seems to be the right height but in the wrong position. There is still some swelling but I am not sure that will address this issue. Based on your experience, what would your evaluation be at this point?

A: Over correction

Hard to tell..this is too soon after the surgery.  You should show the surgeon and the two of you can keep close monitoring of this issue as the edema resolves and the tissues heal.  Good luck

What is More Invasive..a Browlift or Upper Blephroplasty?

Which is more invasive...a browlift or upp blephroplasty? Thanks!

A: Invasiveness of Brow Lift versus Blepharoplasty

Prior to performing any procedure in surgery, we must have an appropriate indication to perform that procedure.  Thus an inappropriate procedure, regardless of how minimal it may be surgically, is too invasive.  That is the central issue with the question that you posed.  Further, we each have different techniques for performing browlifts and upper blepharoplasties based on our training, surgical preferences, diagnosis of our patient's needs, and their desires.  Ultimately it is difficult to compare certain procedures, because some surgeons might consider in the appropriate candidate to perform a transblepharoplasty brow-lift.  It would be difficult to say that this would be more invasive than a "regular upper blepharoplasty". 

I would focus on what your aesthetic goals are, and what you are comfortable with undergoing.  Ask to see pictures of similar patients and ask about expected outcomes and risks/complications.  Best wishes on achieving your goals.
