It has been 6 weeks since my Blepharoplasty & facelift (including my cheeks), & In spite of continuous massaging in an upward direction followed by cold compresses, I do not see any improvement in my droopy lower eyelid. The eye looks twice as large as the other & gives the impression of staring in a different direction. Needless to say, this has been causing an extreme emotional reaction in me; fearing that my decision to have this surgery has resulted in a deformity. Please give me your opinion on the possibility of this problem resolving itself, and what might need to be done should it not. I am attaching a photo & anxiously await your reply. Many Thanks.
