Will the scar under my eyelash fade with time?

January 23, 2014
Asked By:Bmqm in Palos Verdes Peninsula, CA

I had a mid face lift through eye lids 4 weeks ago. The incisions were made under the eye lashes. Swelling is improving however the scars are very visible. I am worried if the scars would fade away as the time goes by?
