I'm 3 weeks post upper/lower blephroplasty and have recently developed constant discomfort in the sinus below one of my eyes. Is this a typical after effect that will just resolve in time?

All the conditions that you mentioned are the same. your best option now is to get Restylane injection by an expert, deep on the bone in the groove bellow your bags. This should last you two years. later on if the bags are worse they can be surgically treated by bringing the fat from the bags...
Dry eye after blepharoplasty is not an uncommon problem, especially when a ptosis repair is performed at the same time, since now more of the eyeball is exposed. An injury to the lacrimal gland or the ducts of the gland is extraordinarily unlikely. The gland actually sits under the bony rim...
STOP! the surgery merry go round! Try a filler to slightly improve but my best advise is NO more of anything. Your expectations seem unrealistic, there I said it. Be happy you didn't have a real issue. From MIAMI Dr. Darryl j. Blinski
