I am about 6 months post-op upper and lower bleph. I am frustrated with the many bumps I have along most of my upper incision lines. I’ve used Silagen and silicone scar tape, and have tried scar massage but it seems to make them more angry. My surgeon said at 1 year post we can revise the scar but he doesn’t recommend anything else at this time. Consult with oculoplastic and he recommend pro-fractional laser to help smooth out the incisions. Do I just wait it out or try the laser? I’m 38 y/o
