Wide, white scar and lumpiness 7 months after lateral brow lift and fat transfer - advice?

AlicaBunnyJan 30, 2022
I went to a very reputable surgeon seven months ago and had a lateral brow lift and facial fat transfer. I had an enormous amount of swelling in the months after. In the past couple months, I’ve developed wide, white scars and weird lumpiness near one temple. My surgeon had assured me that my scarring would be minimal (I had hairline lowering 8 years ago that left a tiny scar at my hairline), but this is obvious and unsightly. Is this normal and can it be improved?

It is always useful to include photographs of your face/brows/eyelids prior to surgery so that one may compare the before-and-after results properly. Your left upper eyelid is a tad higher (mostly laterally) than the right upper eyelid. This, of course, may have very well been there prior to...
