16 day after upper and lower bleph, my surgeon told me to massage the scar , there is like a raised muscle along the incision and when I press a pointy bump like pimple , raises from the inside of the skin and feels like it's attached to that raised piece of muscle / bump/ cyst (?) Is it normal? I don't feel comfortable to massage it anymore . Sorry about the clarity of the pictures and thanks for any suggestions and advise .

The short answer to your question is yes. Howevedr, you need to see an Oculoplastic surgeon to determine whether this is the best solution for you. There may be better solutions.
Stitch marks on the eyelids generally fade over time. Overall, the eyelid heals exceptionally well, but you have to give it time. In general, we like to say that it takes about a full year for an incision or cut to heal. If you had debris in there that wasn't cleaned out fully, that might leave...
From the limited photograph, it appears that there is ptosis present which is a weakness of the Eyelid muscles that hold the upper eyelid open. Ptosis repairs usually performed by ocular plastic surgeon. Cosmetic eyelid surgery will be of no benefit.
