How to recover better after double eyelid surgery?

Double eyelid surgery has become the choice of more and more people who pursue beauty. It can not only make the eyes more vivid but also enhance the overall beauty of the face. However, the recovery process after surgery is equally important. The correct care and recovery methods can greatly speed up the healing of the wound, reduce the formation of scars, and make the double eyelid effect more natural and lasting. Today, let's discuss how to recover better after double eyelid surgery.

Although double eyelid surgery is a relatively minor plastic surgery, postoperative care cannot be neglected. In the early stage after surgery, the wound is sensitive and fragile and needs special care. Keeping the wound clean and dry is crucial to effectively prevent infection and inflammation. At the same time, avoiding excessive use of the eyes and reducing eye fatigue are also important measures to promote recovery.

The care steps are as follows:

Before stitch removal:

1. Prevent infection: Be sure to keep the wound clean and dry to prevent bacterial growth. At the same time, it is recommended to take antibiotics within 3-5 days after surgery to effectively prevent postoperative infection.

2. Reducing swelling, congestion, and bleeding is also key: You can gently cover the wound area with clean gauze and apply ice cubes to relieve swelling and congestion. After surgery, you should avoid lowering your head to read books or watch TV to avoid aggravating local swelling. It is recommended to keep your head tilted back and raise your head when sleeping to help reduce swelling. If bleeding or severe hematoma occurs, please seek medical attention immediately.

After stitches removal:

Post-suture care is equally important. After the sutures are removed 5-7 days after surgery, local hot compresses can be applied twice a day for no more than 20 minutes each time to help promote blood circulation and recovery. When the scabs on the wound fall off, you can start applying silicone scar removal products to help reduce scar formation. Silicone gel scar dressing is a material specially used for postoperative wound care. It has unique breathability and moisturizing properties, which can provide a moist but not wet environment for the wound, which is conducive to cell regeneration and repair. In addition, silicone gel scar dressing can also effectively reduce scar formation and make the double eyelid lines more natural and smooth.

Care tips:

Nutrition and rest are also aspects that cannot be ignored. Eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, and high-protein foods to increase nutritional intake. At the same time, create a quiet, comfortable, and fresh air recuperation environment to avoid overuse of eyes. Wear sunglasses when going out to prevent dust and strong light stimulation. Maintain good work and rest habits and ensure adequate sleep time; eat light and easy-to-digest food and avoid spicy and irritating food; regularly massage the eyes to promote blood circulation, etc. These measures can provide strong support for the recovery of double eyelid surgery.

Following the above suggestions, I believe your double eyelid surgery recovery will be smoother and more ideal.
