Are Wrinkles Normal with Swelling After Blepharoplasty?

Lulita
I had a blephabroplasty on my lower lids, rhinoplasty and face lift end of August. Up till now, I have swelling and bruises under my eyes, and what surprised me the most the severe wrinkles which appear like bags on my lower lids which i didn't have before the surgery. My doctor is not giving me answers and says i should wait more. Is it normal to have wrinkles after the surgery, and does the recovery need more than 4 months? I'm dissatisfied and very depressed with the results!
