Keep area well moisturised with emu oil, bio oil, or similar products.

Apply silicone gel to the area constantly.

I use just olive oil and do sometimes massages.. I've been doing it for 3 weeks. I could start doing it little earlier and in better way. My surgeon does not tell me enough with details. He just recommend sometimes something once per month

Now It's 7 weeks after surgery

On the scar I have very tiny dot which is little painful when i touch. However it's barely visibile. Is it gonna go away ?

The scar still makes eyelid little too stiffy and part of the skin is little rolled there

My surgeon tells me the rolled soft tissue will dissapear

Is it normal ?  It's getting better, but very slowly

I'm gonna ask my surgeon about silicone gel

Here the photos:






I see spider legs there ..brrrr :P
