Upper blepharoplasty scar feels raised and widened with bump like cysts. Is this normal scarring? (photos)

kdc1970
I had upper and lower blepharoplasty done 11 days ago, stitches were removed on day 6. The next day cyst like bumps were on my upper lid above where my stitches had been and each day continues to look worse. Each day doesnt look like its getting any better. Is this how normal scarring should look? Thanks.
