Is an indentation above crease under brow bone normal after upper blepharoplasty? (Photo)

Question

I had excess upper eyelid skin sagging down and a slight droopy eyelid. I had upper bleph and ptosis repair with no fat removal. I'm wondering if this indentation is normal healing.

John J. Martin, Jr., MD · Answer

It looks like you are very early in the healing phase.  The two lids actually look very similar now - with a similar crease.  However if you are in the first week or two of healing, you  still have swelling so things will continue to change.

Chad C. Zatezalo, MD · Answer

Presely56, You are in the acute stages of healing and I would continue to wait for all the swelling to resolve to judge the height of the lid and the "indentations."  Good luck and be patient, it takes time.
