Will Massaging Address Lower Lid Droop or Just Make the Under Eye Creepy? (photo)

It is way to early after surgery for you to worry about asymmetry. There is significant swelling in the first two weeks after surgery, and sometimes even longer than that. Furthermore, surgical scar will evolve and soften over a period of months. I would not consider revision surgery on anyone until the 3 month post operative visit, and sometimes even longer than that. Scars can mature for up to a year after surgery. Please be patient with your body and let it heal.

Time may be just as good as the eyelid push ups at this point and yes it is possible to stretch the skin.  I also question the use of lasix for "lid swelling."

  If you are worried, then you should stop massaging.  It is likely that the lid will improve with time whether you massage it or not, so try to be patient and look for improvement in a few months.

Assuming that you mean the right lower eyelid appears to be "pulling downward", massaging is an appropriate first line of treatment. The full benefit of the CO2 laser will take several months to realize. I am concerned about the use of lasix which is a diuretic to reduce swelling unless there is an other aspect of your medical history which would justify this choice.

Thank you for the question and the photo. Massaging the lower lid will definitely help with the droop and it usually correct it. It may take few weeks before you see the results. As for lasix; I have not used it for my patients.
