I had lower Blepharoplasty done 2 weeks ago. Swelling still remains, which is normal. What I noticed recently is the exessive skin wrinkling on the lower lidsas the swelling goes down. What should I do to eliminate wrinkling? Could it become permanent?

Answer: Wrinkling under eyelid
Wrinkles under the eyelid are not necessarily treated by a lower eyelid blepharoplasty. The fine lines and wrinkles are often treated with a skin resurfacing procedure such as a chemical peel or a CO2 laser peel (regular or fractional). The lower eyelid blepharoplasty is aimed to treat bags under the eyed that result from fat pads that protrude with age. These should be better after blepharoplasty surgery.

Answer: Eyelid wrinkles
It is still early in the recovery period and would ask that you allow everything to heal. Lower blepharoplasty is a good procedure to rejuvenate the lower eyelids, by removing the lower eyelid fat and some of the wrinkles. However, it will not remove all of the wrinkles.

Answer: Skin wrinkling after lower eyelid surgery should be left alone until fully healed from the operation.
It is impossible to make judgments about the aesthetic outcome of your operation 2 weeks after the procedure. You should wait until you are fully healed and then asses the results. If wrinkling is persistent, there are various treatments that might help. Now is not the time to employ them.
