Are Strange Skin 'Bulges' Along Incision Line After Upper Eyelid Surgery Normal?

Hi, after only nine days it is not unusual to see some fullness along an incision line. Depending on the suture technique, sometimes there is localized swelling between the skin edge and the stitch which causes it to bulge up a bit. This is normal in most cases. Fortunately, as time goes on, this in most cases goes away. Sometimes, we may recommend massage but care must be taken not to open up and disrupt the skin incision at this early time. Follow your surgeon's instructions with regards to this.

You are very early in the post operative course.  What you are seeing is most likely caused by swelling in the area.  This is normal at this point post operatively.  Let your surgeon know your concerns.

Dear Nova29 in Manhattan Beach, CA:

Small bumps, ridges and puckers are common after eyelid surgery. The skin is the thinest on the body and small amounts of swelling, bruising or irregularities in the closure are easily noticed for the first few weeks to months. Since you are only 9 days out from your blepharoplasty, it is likely that this will smooth out as the incision heals.

If you haven't already, bring it up to your surgeon, and let them check it. Sometimes additional maneuvers can be performed to help speed your healing. Most likely it will resolve with time, but if it doesn't, you will have informed your surgeon and they will be aware and prepared if somethings needs to be done.
