Pimple Like Bump on Outside Corner of Eye Following a Lower Bleph

When in doubt, ask you surgeon. It most likely is a milia ( small, firm white bump) that is easily treated at your next visit.

More than likely this is a milia, a non painful small white bump people get, even when not having had surgery.  It may resolve on its own after several months or your surgeon may "flick" it out using a sterilized needle.  Either way, it is non threatening and will not leave a scar.  There is an outside chance it could be a remaining suture but unlikely.

Thanks for your question. You should see your doctor ASAP. It's hard to give you a completely accurate answer without seeing you, but milia and pimples are not uncommon with the use of lotions and ointments, which most surgeons have their patients use. It should resolve on its own over time, but if not, it can be unroofed with a needle or laser. Best of luck!DrC

It's not unusual for patients to note fine white bumps on the eyelids following blepharoplasty surgery. These lesions are known as milia. These are effectively whiteheads that result from blockage of the eyelid skin pores. These lesions may resolve spontaneously, but in most cases require some type of treatment. This usually involves un-roofing the lesion. This usually results in total resolution of the problem.If you're concerned about milia following your surgical procedure, it's appropriate to consult your surgeon. Your surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your concerns.

Your condition is quite common and easily treated. Milia are oil bumps which can be removed with a needle. It is not a reflection on how the surgery was performed. Just make a follow up appointment with your surgeon. 

Most likely a milium or suture irritation. Milia are keratin filled cysts that appear just under the epidermis and are very common around the nose and eyes. This will usually dissapear within 6-8 weeks, if not it may need to be opened slightly as a minor procedure by your doctor.
