My Blepharoplasty surgery, upper eye and "lower tuck, was done 11 days ago. Overall, I am very pleased. Following surgery, I had bruising/ swelling without any pain. Most has resolved except for the "fluid bags" on my cheeks. After I wake up the morning the bags have repositioned, but they migrate down to my cheeks. I believe that is gravity; however, my concern is they do not appear to be changing in size, is this normal? Will they resolve naturally? Is there anything I can do? Thanks!
