I am 7 weeks into upper eyelid surgery. Any suggestions?

Thank you for sharing or question.  Without being able to view photographs, I can only make some general comments.  At 7 weeks postop from blepharoplasty you undoubtedly have some residual swelling.  It is common for this swelling to fluctuate based on the time of day.  In general, this swelling is related to changes in head position and gravity.  You may notice more swelling in the morning, after you have been lying flat all night, which likely improves throughout the day after you have been upright for a few hours. Swelling may also cause your eyelids to appear asymmetry. The asymmetry may also change or fluctuate. Rest assured knowing that most patients undergoing blepharoplasty have similar issues during the healing process.  With that being said, it is still important that you maintain frequent and long–term follow-up with your blepharoplasty surgeon to be absolutely sure that what you are experiencing is part of the normal healing process.Good luck!Dr. Harmych

Without a good set of photos- and the benefit of physical exam- it's difficult to comment accurately. Generally speaking at 7 weeks- you're still early post-op- so you need to give it time to heal. It is best to address all of the post-op questions with your operating Surgeon since he/she is the one who performed the procedure.

Without phototgraphs it is not possible to comment on issues you may be aware but unable to describe.  Consider posting an eyestrip photograph.  It is very unlikely anyone would be able to recognize you from this but it will help up advise you.
