Double eyelid surgery is a common cosmetic surgery, and most patients will experience scarring after surgery, which is a common reaction after surgery. Patients with scarring do not need to worry too much, usually between 1~3 months, the swelling of the scar tissue will gradually subside, and it will start to flatten and soften, and then gradually return to normal skin. Due to the large individual differences between different patients, the exact time of receding cannot be generalized.
