Asked By:ozzyjc in Kilsby, England, United Kingdom
I had lower blephoplasty around 18 months ago, and noticed a purple looking line (I’m assuming scar tissue) under one eye. It also looks like I have an eyebag under this eye too and my tear trough lines seem stronger than before, any advice much appreciated thanks 31 year old male

Answer: Periorbital asymmetry after eyelid surgery
We are all asymmetrical to some degree and yours is mild and within normal limits. Typically we can use Botox, fillers, or even surgery to improve asymmetry. If you look at those around you you will notice that everyone has it and yours isn't as noticeable as you think.
I know it is hard to be patient but more time is needed before judging your results. I encourage you to discuss your concerns with your surgeon. If after a few months you are still not happy you can consider a revision or potentially Morpheus8 to give further improvement. Until then closely...
You may want to try Botox. This can provide a conservative brow lift to give the eyes a more refreshed appearance. The treatment is done in the office with final results seen after two weeks. The results typically last three to four months. See an expert injector near you to learn more.
