Disappointing Lower Lid Surgery Results

I regret your situation. AS you can see by the paucity of responses to your questions so do my colleagues. While some bruising may persist as long as yours, there should not be a visible / palpable lump there. The most common cause for such a mass is incomplete to no removal of the side fat pad of the lower lid. But rather than guess what it is I really think you should see your surgeon, have him examine you and advise you how to correct it.
