Did the surgeon sew the incision too tight? (photos)

Asked By:donna41 in Mississippi State, MS

I had upper and lower blepharoplasty ten days ago. But concerned with the area above my eye, its not exactly hard but their is a hole. He left three sutures in other areas that I pulled out which made the lower portion lay flatter. The doctor's office didn't seem to be concerned.
