I had lower blepharoplasty two weeks ago, with laser resurfacing. My left eye is healing nicely, but the right eye has a large, firm lump that is not present on the left. The lump is between my lower eyelid muscle and my tear trough. Not like milia, rather looks and feels like my tear trough on the…

This is definitely something that you should follow up with your surgeon. Without more information on what type of approach your surgeon used to execute your eyelid surgery I would be guessing. Does not sound like an emergency but should be followed up with your plastic surgeon ASAP.

This is a tricky question; eyelid and brow position work together and in experienced hands, you can lift the brow position in some cases with botox & fillers but it has its limitations; you should seek a consultation with a plastic surgeon that is proficient with surgical and non-surgical techniques (botox, fillers, ulthera) and discuss which option is best for you.

2 months after breast reduction is still early; swelling can last a good 6 months hence the size could still come down; I would be patient and sit down and discuss with your plastic surgeon a future plan (after 6 months).

I received Volbella by Juvederm under my eyes. After 4 months or so I got a winter head/sinus cold (which I'm still not sure if it's related), however I woke up with 2 swollen eyes. I ended up getting hyaluronidase acid injected in both under eyes. Both eyes went down. I noticed a hard lump and…

Fillers can be unpredictable on the area under the eyes; rejection is not typical and I have certainly not seen this in my experience. Consider getting a different type of filler for future injection if you decide to proceed ;even though fillers are convenient consider ac onsult with a plastic surgeon to see if either fat grafting or eyelid surgery is a better option for you.
Good luck
