Chalazion/Lower eyelid cyst. Had internal sty and chalazion incision surgery. (photo)

February 12, 2017
Asked By:sammy1324 in New York, NY

After incision surgery, another well-defined mass popped up slightly lower. No pain. 1. If I wait months to have another surgery as it gets harder, will it be more difficult to scrape it all out w/out leaving scar tissue? (iow is it ideal to do while its still a bit soft) 2. Any longterm aesthetic benefit in doing surgery this this week vs months later? btw, Kaiser will NOT do steroid injection, so only interested in surgery feedback Pics 1&2 =before surg; pic 3= new cyst couple days after
