I have these lines on my eyelids 6 months after upper blepharoplasty. Is this normal?

Asked By:Brave8071 in England, United Kingdom

I healed well from upper blepharoplasty 6 months ago. However I have noticed, since recovery and reduction of swelling, these lines on the eyelids that I never used to have. The eyelid isn’t swollen in this picture. Is this normal? I can’t see the look of excess skin on this part of the eye in other ‘after’ photos of this surgery. Many thanks
