I am now almost 6 weeks out from upper and lower Blepharoplasty. Scar tissue has formed under my lower right eyelid and I have been doing the massages for 2 weeks. My Dr. has given me the option of injecting steroids to dissolve this unsightly bulge. Has anyone had this done and what were your results?

Answer: Steroids after blepharoplasty Steroid typically are not necessary after blepharoplasty, but can be very useful in specific situations. If you have extensive scar tissue or retraction of the lid, then injection of the steroids may help soften up the tissue and resolve the problems faster. Good luck with your recovery.

Answer: Steroid injections will help Cortisone shots are a very acceptable form of treatment for small areas of bulging on the eyelids. If there is residual fat present, the cortisone shots will not help with this. We inject steroids into small areas of the incisions independently to effect a change such as flattening of the scar.
