Under right eye I have a ridge line that is not resolving. If I gently run my finger over it, I can feel tiny hard bumps evenly spaced out under the skin starting in the inner corner. The line is not hard, and feels like loose skin. My surgeon said that it looks fine, and that if I have an issue after 6 months then I can come back. What may be causing this and will it resolve over time? Thank you.

Answer: Lower lid bleph scar From the picture at one week, it looks like you were having a reaction to the suture. This can create a longer healing time, and some additional swelling. I would recommend using warm compresses and some massage over the area to try and flatten it out. Some silicone cream may also help. If it doesn't go down in the next few weeks, some low dose steroid injection may help.

Answer: Three months postop upper lower blepharoplasty most patients are fully healed at three months after a upper and lower blepharoplasty procedure. From the photographs, it appears that the incision is still in the healing process with swelling and edema present. Consider a steroid shot if the scar itself is hypertrophic. Best to follow up with your operative surgeon.
