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

What is strange is that you have not had the experience of being 9 days out from eyelid surgery before so it is hard for you to know what to expect.  The wound shown in the photos actually looks very good for this time frame.  Certainly the wound is not yet healed and there is selling and inflammation present-all normal.  I do not see anything that suggests that you need "injections" to help wound healing.  What you need here is "tincture of time."

  The small bulges above the incision line are normal swelling that occurs with eyelid surgery.  It's  always best to check with your operative surgeon

It's normal to have areas of irregularities along the incision following blepharoplasty surgery. These areas of irregularity occur for a variety of reasons including suture tracts, normal skin edge eversion, inflammation, crusting, scabbing and normal wound healing.These lumps, bumps and bulges tend to heal nicely with the passage of time. This process can be facilitated by gentle massage, topical ointments and avoidance of sun exposure. When these steps are taken, eyelid incisions heal nicely.If you're concerned about the appearance of your eyelids following blepharoplasty, it's important to consult your surgeon. Your surgeon should be able to make an appropriate recommendation regarding the optimization of wound healing.
