Wrinkles and bumps after eyelid surgery - can this be improved? (Photos)

Asked By:mokakim8 in Sanger, California

9 months ago, I had surgery on both my upper and lower eyelids. My upper eyelids are now uneven, which is a bit frustrating. While the bags under my eyes are gone, they've been replaced by lots of wrinkles and some bumpy areas on the outer corners. The doctor mentioned he could even out my upper eyelids, but unfortunately, there’s nothing he can do about the lower ones since there’s no extra skin to take out safely. ’m feeling really down about the way I look lately. Every time I smile, those wrinkles and uneven areas seem to make me appear much older than I am. Even a slight smile reveals these concerns instantly. Doctors, I would appreciate a second opinion on this. I’m hesitant to commit to regular Botox treatments every few months as my current doctor has suggested!
