Upper Eyelid Swelling after Fat Grafting for Lower Eyelid Retraction
Fat grafting improved your lower eyelid retraction. That is wonderful. However, swelling after fat transfer is common and may make take several weeks to months to completely resolve.

Lower eyelid surgery
Dear nonaalamorah,
The swelling in the lower eyelids can act like a dam that keeps swelling around longer where it can back up in the upper eyelids
If it hurts, looks red, or feels warm, please see your doctor ASAP
If it is improving, it will continue to do so
Best regards,
