Are you pre- or post-surgery? My surgeon told me to massage my upper lids after I had eyelid lowering surgery so that I wouldn’t develop scar tissue (that would prevent the eyelids from dropping as much he intended in surgery). I forget what the exact instructions were, but it was like 30 seconds per eyelid, 3 times a day for a couple weeks after surgery. I forgot a lot, and one time I massaged too hard and actually yanked my stitches out a little bit and have a scar (that only I notice, but still) in that upper lid now.
