I had ptosis surgery on both eyes. The right one was perfect after two weeks but the left one developed scarring and hematoma that needed to be removed. Now it's been an additional 4 weeks after that one and my eye lid looks terrible, filled with scar tissue. I was told to use warm packs and massage it so the scarring would go away that fills my eye lid but have seen no improvement. Can someone please reassure me and tell me what my next step may be. I will follow up but want a 2nd opinion.
I have 2 drug eluding stents in the LAD for anterior MI 4 years ago. I also have a prophylactic AICD because of an EF 30% ( never had an arrhythmia or single ectopic beat). I am looking for a surgeon around upstate NY Rochester to Albany who would do the above surgery. I have a very kind Plastic Surgeon in Rochester, Dr Vito Quatella who has done procedures for me in past, but says the risk of ocular hematoma is too great. I respect his opinion, but am looking for options.
I caused a small hematoma in my upper eyelid 3 weeks after upper and lower blepharoplasy. It happened when removing makeup (I thought I was being careful)! There seems to be a pocket of blood under the skin that is traveling/spreading rather that being reabsorbed. Will this go away on its own? It has already been over a week since it happened, and it just seems to keep getting worse.
