Not Worth It
Spent: $2,500 in Los angeles,ca

I had sagging upper eyelids and had upper blepharoplasty. Now have visible scars that had puss and left bad round marks. He made the incision above my natural crease, dont know why and removed a lot of skin my eyebrow positioning is lower.


What can I do to improve the scars from eyelid surgery? Has been 4 weeks since surgery. and I have black, red, raised and thick scars.

don't feel bad. My situation is a lot worst than yours. I was only 27 when this Dr. slasher gave me very old looking eyes and scars everywhere. You are lucky it wasn't him that did your eyelids.

I would recommend don't touch it for days. Don't touch it until the stitches comes off. Use warm water to clean your eye area and just don't touch the stitches.
