Asked By:carina15 in Chicago, IL

Please help. The scars in the corner of my eyes are getting more visible and look horrible. They are also red, and with bumps. I have been massaging them for the last week and putting warm compresses on them as surgeon instructed, but they seem to be getting worse! What can I do about his, and is this bad stitching or will it get better eventually? Thank you so much for your replies.
