I am 8 days out from upper bleph and I'm freaking out that the scars are too high. My doc said they would lower into the crease but I'm really worried. Thank you

Answer: Eyelid Surgery Thank you for your question. Eyelid surgery is virtually painless and recovery is typically quick. After a week or two, the area will be smoother and the surrounding areas will look more alert and youthful. I suggest that you review your post op care instructions with your board certified facial plastic surgeon. Best wishes,

Answer: Upper eyelid incision placed too high It looks like the incision was placed above your natural eyelid crease. The shape of the incision is a uniform arch rather than the more aesthetically pleasing sinusoidal or lazy-s shape. In my opinion, the scar will not settle into the natural crease. I think revision surgery will be necessary for you to be happy with the result. I recommend seeking an opinion from a different surgeon on how best to correct the problem. Best of luck.
