I had lower transconjuctival blepharoplasty with fat removal and repositioning 9 days ago. I am extremely happy with my progress. However, my right eye (the eye that had more fat) is holding onto fluid, especially in the morning. When I press on the fluid it does move up. I just want to know if this fluod/swelling will dissipate, and if my eye will look like my left eye eventually. It looks really weid when I smile. Any advice is appreciated!
