Lower blepharoplasty prolonged swelling. Is there anything that can help? (Photo)

Aveeno1Jul 6, 2023
I had a lower blepharoplasty done almost 6 month ago, I developed a hardened area about black pepper size after 2 weeks inner corner of right eye which my doctor treated with little steroid injection and it helped but it's didn't go away completely. I also have prolonged swelling below underage area which is not going away. My doctor said it'll slowly go away with time. Is there anything that can help ?

A trans-conjunctival lower blepharoplasty accomplishes removal of the fat bags that are creating the puffy look in the lower lids. The incisions are completely located on the inside of the eyelid, and there are no external incisions.
