Bumps Under Eye After Laser Blepharoplasty

Nicola,

Thanks for your question.  It is early in your recovery process so I would not be overly concerned with the bumps you are seeing underneath your skin but I would certainly recommend you return to your surgeon who performed the procedure so that the issue may  be completely assessed.  Laser blepharoplasty can involve several different techniques each with a unique recovery profile and your surgeon will know best if what you are seeing is normal or should be addressed.

Nicola,

It is not unusual to have some bumpiness so soon after eyelid surgery.  You need to wait at least a month to get an idea of what your final result will be.

Also, many patients think that the result of surgery performed with a laser will be significantly different than that of a laser performed with standard instruments.  However, the use of laser should not affect your long term outcome.
