I had upper eyelid surgery in a lower skin pinch 3 months ago. What can be done to correct this? (photos)

Thank you for your pictures and questions. Scars on the eyelids tend to heal very well and be almost invisible with time. The key there is "with time." It can take 6-12 months for scars to fully settle and heal, so you have to be patient. There might have been some things done to disguise the scars better but what is done and done and the best thing you can do now is scar management. Use silicone gels (I like BioCorneum) to treat the scars and make sure to do scar massage and keep them out of the sun or use SPF on them daily. With time they will likely fade and improve.Hope this helps!Dallas R. Buchanan, MD, FACSOwner & Board-Certified Plastic SurgeonVIVIFY plastic surgery

Hi,I routinely use a CO2 laser on my surgical patients to minimize the chance of scarring. There can be mild scabbing and some redness after the laser treatment but it will soften the scar. Of note, it does take a full year for a scar to mature and in all likelihood your incision will look better with time.Best,

You do still have some visible scars and some edema.  The edema will continue to improve.  For the scars, you should do some massage and use some silicone scar cream.  You can also do some laser for the scars which can improve them significantly.  Eyelid scars usually fade nicely with time as well.    

Eyelid tissues are very specialized and respond to surgery differently than other tissues.  Your concern about the location of the incisions seems valid based on your photographs.  Additionally, I would agree that significant swelling after 3 months is unusual.  You should consider seeking outside consultation for a second opinion, ideally from an Oculoplastic Surgeon who can offer reassurance, or a plan for improvement/correction.
