“Double eyelid surgery scarring”
Asian eyelid surgery: NOT worth it
Pain: Uncomfortable
I am only seven teen years old and got my second double eyelid surgery two and a half months ago because I thought my eyes were still too small. This time I got my double eyelids starting from the outside of the eyes not the inner corner. Also, during the same time as this operation I got the inner corners of my eyes cut in order to make my eyes appear larger.
The doctor TWO DAYS before I was supposed to get my stitches out said I must go in to fix my left double eyelid. They ended up re-doing it. When the stitches were taken out 4 days later, the place where they had cut was very wide and looked much like a large open gash. Since then the scar healed very thick thick, dark, red, and bumpy. It feels slightly like cartilage but not as hard. My right eye is the same but not as severe. And also because of the hard bump on the left eye, a second fold has appeared above my first one and my eyes look very lopsided.This did NOT happen the first time i got my eyes done.
Will my eyes heal over time? or is a third procedure necessary? I wish I had a more clear picture of the scar.

Hi i Also got that second fold it always appears when im not sleeping enough or in the evening after 22:00 i had double eyelid surgery 3months ago and my eyes look almost the same as in your after pic but im worried about the second fold is this due to swelling ? or bad surgery ? my eyes heal extreme slowly and im beginning to worried that it wil be like this permanently

My eyes have gotten so much better! But still have a pretty noticeable scar.. The second fold has yet to leave my eyes ):. I believe my second crease is due to bad surgery. Because my scars stick out rather then go inward.I still have no idea if it will be permanent but I know my eyes have gotten a lot better! They started healing a lot better after they swelled up ridiculously for a couple days. I hope your eyes heal well!
