Failed blepharoplasty & fat transfer. What are my options regarding a lump I have? (Photo)

Pioneering228290Jun 9, 2024
Hello, I had transconjunctival blepharoplasty and fat transfer to the mid-face on May 14th and I would like to know what my options are regarding a lump I have. I contacted the surgeon who did the surgery, however, she said lumps or bumps are impossible and recommended massaging the area.
 I searched online and can see that it's certainly not impossible, but I don't want to disagree with her. I would be very grateful if you could make me aware of my options. Thank you!
