Will my eyelid crease go down and when can I expect it to look more natural? (Photo)

Question

I got double eyelid surgery 3 weeks ago and the crease still looks too high and unnatural for my liking. Will it go down over time? When can I expect it to look more natural?

hi,
based on your comment, it should now be 4 months from you surgery.  the picture you submitted at 3 weeks post op should now be very different.  you still have 2 more months for further subtle shape changes and it will ultimately settle to final shape in 1 year from surgery.  hope this helps.

Thank you for your question.  At three weeks it is really too soon to tell what your final result will be.  It takes at least 6 months before you will see your results.  You still have some swelling and that could be what you are seeing.  Best to wait before making any decisions.Best of luck,Dr. Peter Newen
