I had an upper blepharoplasty eleven months ago. No complications, normal healing. The only thing that bothers me is that I still have slightly thickened bumps on the outer corners of my eyelids at the ends of the incisions. Will this eventually disappear, or is further surgery required to remove that scar tissue?

Answer: Upper Bleph You may have some access skin around the eye that may have to be removed. Otherwise, a simple injection of kenalog will soften out the bumps.

Answer: Blepharoplasty and Scarring It sounds like you either have a little excess skin that needs to be removed, or heavy thick scars that have not matured either from the suture that was used for your eyelid tuck or blepharoplasty. I have seen a number of patients who have had "scar bumps" after a year and they have eventually settled down. You may want to check back with your surgeon to be sure.I hope that helps. Best regards..
