Left eye was more bruised and swollen than Right. I love right eye outcome but incision on left eyelid seems a few milineters above crease and a bit too high at inner eye and creates a strange fold of skin over the Crease. Do I need a bit more skin removed? Could it be due to residual swelling? Will the incision drop into crease? I realize it's early in healing timeframe and have Follow up in a few weeks but would like professional opinions.

Answer: Not great.... but don't lose heart... Your photos clearly show that the skin creases are asymmetric. This in turn gives rise to the asymmetry in the eyelid show when the eyes are open. The skin creases also are too high on both sides. With time, these scars will improve, and upper lid skin heals particularly well. However, the skin creases will not come down and the asymmetric eyelid show is unlikely to resolve. Hopefully the whole thing will improve to a degree that you are OK with it. If not, you may need a revision procedure.

Answer: Upper lid incision The crease is a little higher medially on the left, You also have some hollowing just above the little arch. This can occur when fat is taken from this area. That allows the crease to pull up. As you heal this may all be less noticeable. If you have some hollowing there, some HA filler can be used to help fill in the hollow. But wait 6 months before you do anything.
