What you have is NOT normal. It looks like a granulomatous (inflammatory) reaction to either foreign body (such as ointment) or worse infection, specifically myobacterial. It is important you talk to your surgeon and get second opinion from an oculoplastic surgeon.
Your photo does not appear to be typical milia in that it appears to be an inflammatory process that could be a simple as reaction to suture material, or contact sensitivity to an ointment or something more serious such as an infection. See your plastic surgeon for advise and treatment at this time.
It appears that your incisions are not typical 2 months postoperatively. Infection or inflammation can be the issue. I would first speak with your surgeon and consider a consultation with an oculoplastic surgeon for treatment which may include antibiotics steroids or possibly Culture, drainage or debridement. Good luck.
Yes, like every one has said, this is not normal........even 1 week after surgery it should not look like this. . Looks like a cellulitis. Probably needs antibiotics and possibly an incision ad drainage after a course of antibiotics if a pocket of pus apears. Definately needs medical care........see your surgeon. PS: Thanks for the photo, it really helps us to help you.
Milia are common in eyelid incisions and can be treated by unroofing the milia with a tiny needle. Occasionally a small piece of skin is trapped below the surface of the incision causing a sebaceous cyst. The cyst(s) need to be removed. In my practice, all patient incisions with upper blepharoplasty get 3-4 laser treatments with the Fraxel restore skin resurfacing laser. The FDA has shown that these treatments improve surgical scars. I may also suggest a scar gel to incisions that are persistently red, if other causes of inflammation are not seen.
