Asked By:Concernedpt22 in Austin, TX

I am 30 yrs old and I had upper blepharoplasty done 12 days ago with stitches out on day 7. I am extremely worried. My left eye incision is above the crease and my left eye is very swollen with webbing at corner. Will my eyes stay like this? Swollen and webbed?? Or will it heal? Seriously worried.:(
