Bruising and swelling two weeks post lower bleph. How long before this goes away?

November 8, 2014
Asked By:juvedermisgone in Seattle, WA

How long before this goes away? I had a lower bleph without incisions done from inside of lid, the bags are gone but I have these bruised and swollen pouches remaining. I had belotero injected into the tear troughs last November, 2013. Is there any possibility this could have any bearing on why I am still swollen? I have been doing light massage and am taking bromelain and using topical arnica at night. Thank you for your response as I still have to wear glasses to work to cover this.
