Lower eyelid fibrosis/scar tissue growing on orbital bone even after 1 year post op.I look worse than before my surgery.

Anonymous2661434
Orbital Decomp (TED) to correct 2-3mm of proptosis. The incision on my lower eyelid grew scar tissue and sticking to bone. I now I feel deformed! 4 months post-op #1 doc did a revision (surg #2) & scar tissue grew back faster. 3 weeks later (surgery #3) an implant was added, then 6mo later the implant teared out, & had to be removed (surgery #4). Waited 1 year, now steroids injections. Not much help. What are my options? I have heard the Vampire Facelift (plasma) can help the scar tissue.
