Asked By:Aata in California, CA

I had revision blepharoplasty done on dec 14, 2016. Its been 4 months and I am worried about the persistent swelling. I look sleepy all the time because my eyes look half closed. I can't take photos from a lower or straight angle, I have to look up in photos to look normal. My scars are quite visible. And when i look up, my lids feel heavy and feels like pulling. can't go out without makeup. always have to wear thick eyeliner and fake eyelashes to hide my swelling to some extent. WHAT IS WTONG?
