What are these puffy pouches that have formed after upper blepharoplasty. (photo)

afr_slms
I have no idea what these puffy pouches of skin above the scar are ? Are these permanent or will they go away in time? They look disgusting and make me look old (I'm only 24). I never had these before the surgery, I only had the surgery to make my epicanthic fold look less but it did nothing for my epicanthic fold. I'm really unhappy and am hoping it doesn't stay like this.
