I had am 40 yrs old an had an under eye lift w/laser. It was beyond theworst feling of a sunburn I ever had..
3 months later not healing
Lots of scarring an pain under eyes droop like hound dogs
Wearing make up makes it look worse
The doc seems worried
He said he's never had problem quit like mine but days everything should b OK. I'm so scared to me it looks like the laser went to deep an my skin is healing the best way it can. My hubby luved my eyes. This is tearing my soul apart. Any advice?

Do you plan on disclosing the doctor's name? I hope there is resolution for your problem and I wish your PS would include your photos to show in consults with prospective patients. It would help inform them. I'm sure you would be eager to provide a release with your problem areas cropped for him to use in each and every one of his future consults. Wonder if he will do that???? tks for your review....grace

Ask doctor if a low dilute steroid injection along raised areas would help with inflammation or even high dose pulse oral steroids with a taper. Looks very inflamed. Did doctor use internal stitches? You may be having a reaction to dissolvable stitches which some patients do not dissolve or takes a prolonged period of time and are very reactive with symptoms similar to allergic response.

If area still inflamed and dissolvable stitches used, doctor may have to reopen area and remove the friable tissue and any stitch fragments remaining. Nylon can be used to stitch if needed (later removed) or glue. I would also recommend doing steroid as well.

You can use efflumidex , but dont put the drops your eyes, just to the scar...use organic cocooil, cold press jojoba or other perfect oil, and regularly make massage (your finger put horizontally to the operation region) up to the globe your skin...5 times a day...2 weeks will be better and better...
