Hello, it is normal for the wound to be slightly lumpy bumpy within the immediate post operative period (which you are in). I would continue to apply ointment to your wounds and allow for the wounds to flatten with time.
Initially after you have your sutures removed you will frequently have some bumps over the incision. As you are quite early in the healing process there will be quite a bit of swelling, some of which is caught directly in this area.

As we age, our eyelids naturally sag and droop. A combination approach would be best to see visible improvement. In terms of non-surgical treatment options, I would recommend a Chemical Brow Lift (using Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Jeuveau) and filler injections to rejuvenate the temples, eyebrow,...
Thanks for your question.I believe a gentle chemical peel wound be the best, but you may need a series of peels for best results. You may also be a candidate for a dermal filler. See an expert injector/physician for the best recommendation. Best wishes. Dr. ALDO
