What Can I Do to Lessen Scars After Blepharoplasty?

I am so sorry this occurred.  Sometimes scars can be revised and hidden better, and sometimes they can be tattooed the color of your skin.  Why not see an eyelid specialist to identify optons

Reach out to your surgeon regarding your concerns so that he/she may evaluate the affected area and determine the most efficacious treatment to reduce the appearance of your scars.  

At 18 months your scar has remodeled and it is time to talk about ways to treat it. 

In my hands a factional ablative laser is the best treatment for scars in this area. It depends on your baseline skin tone but typically it requires 4 to 5 treatments separated by 4 wks until the patient and myself are happy with the scar. 

The downside is that there is a 1 wk downtime after each treatment but the results can be quite good.

Hope this helps.

Best of luck,

I would recommend you book a follow up with your surgeon to review your healing and determine the most appropriate course of action moving forward.  A revision procedure or laser skin treatment may be a consideration to improve the appearance of the scar, but the performing surgeon would be best suited to make the most appropriate recommendation moving forward.

Scars
are probably the most common concern of facial plastic surgery patients. In
upper blepharoplasty procedures, it's critical for the plastic surgeon to be as
conservative as possible to avoid visible scarring. After 18 months, you should
probably consider a scar revision procedure so you don't feel self-conscious
about the scar and can wear your hair pulled back if that's what you prefer. Talk
to your original plastic surgeon about this option, and also feel free to
contact othersurgeons who
specialize in scar revision. Best of luck.
