Asked By:starfish788 in Beverly Hills, CA

Hi everyone, the purpose of my post is to share my epi/double eyelid experience. As you can see from the first photo,I had a chunk of extra skin. And no,it wasn't painful at all.I went shopping the next day. My only concern is the visible scarring. My left eye has a red raised scar which developed 10 days after my surgery. It's been 1.5 month since my surgery&I recent started using silicone gel scar treatment. Should I receive further treatment for the scars?
