The MD was an eye surgeon specializing in blephs. I had upper and lower done. Lower is fine, however both upper lids have small bumps along the scar line where the absorable stitches were and the lid is light purple.( very obvious with makeup). When I saw the ARNP on Oct 20th i asked why I had the discoloration and bumps. She said some people take longer to heal and form scar tissue. Said to get Vit E cream and really massage into lids. And that was that.Am I still supposed to have these bumpy scars? Will they ever go away? Will my lids stay purple? I am not a happy camper
