What is the best option for treating scarring and bunching of the skin 6 months after blepharoplasty? (photos)

realselfuser1997Aug 10, 2024
I'm a 27-year-old female who had blepharoplasty 6 months ago and my scars haven’t improved. 3 years prior I had ptosis repair and nearly invisible scars. I’m happy with my results, however, the texture of the scars bothers me. My left eyelid has a very visible scar on the outer corner. The bunching of my inner eyelid skin is also concerning. My surgeon recommends excision of the cysts on my right eyelid & ultraclear laser on my left. I’d like to know if this is the best course of action
