Asked By:allisonobri in Seoul, 11

7 months ago I did incisional double eyelid surgery, ptosis correction, and epicanthoplasty. I've been noticing a small scab in the fold of my left eye, it's hard to the touch and a little uncomfortable. My eyelids are slightly uneven, and I'm not sure if this scab would be the cause of this. I don't think the scab will fade (I waited to see if it would) so will this require revisional surgery?
