Settlement After Asian Epicanthoplasty and Ptosis Correction?

February 12, 2016
Asked By:Blessednee in Singapore, SG

I am an Asian male about 7 weeks post-op for epicanthoplasty and ptosis correction. A full incision was required for the ptosis correction. I requested a hidden crease but it is still slightly visible. Over time will the eyelids settle from the ptosis correction, appear smaller, and cover the crease? Over time since the epicanthoplasty, my eyes keep getting wider as the wound heals. It is starting to make my eyes look too wide and big. When does this progressive widening cease?
