I had upper blepharoplasty three months ago, my right eye has healed perfectly with no problems, however my left eye has an almost "baggy" appearance just above the eye socket (scar line) towards the outer area of the eye. My surgeon has explained that the scar tissue is in a phase of slight contracture and this often creates excessive skin just above it. However, I have not seen any improvement of this area whatsoever. How long would it normally take for this issue to resolve?
