Will steroid injections and massage fix my eyelid back to its prior almond shape? Or will I need a retraction surgery?

SF101
I had a lower bleph done 8/25 and i noticed my lower eyelid is lower than it was before. I saw my doctor last week and he gave me steroid injections at the corner scar areas and told me to massage the lower lid like crazy. Will this work to get my almond shape back or am i doomed and need a retraction surgery??!! ughhhh
