I had upper eyelid surgery around 3 years ago. Scar has become wide and white and the eyelid does feel tight but it closes well. Scar became noticeable in the last 1.5 years. I went back to the surgeon who said the scar had stretched and that there is a fat medial pad. He doesnt want to revise it now suggested I see someone else he suggested to see what he says. I hate it, it is obvious and hard to hide with make up. I wish I had never had my eyelids done. How can I get rid of the scar?
