Several stages of recovery after double eyelid surgery

In the clinic, a lot of consultation to do double eyelid surgery MM decided to do surgery, the most common question is: doctor after double eyelid in the end a few days to recover well ah Today we will talk about the double eyelid surgery after a good recovery problem. First of all, let’s define what we mean by “good recovery”. We understand that a good recovery means that the eyes are completely swollen, no flesh strips, purple, scars fade, the shape becomes natural, so that others can not see that they did double eyelid surgery …… But, double eyelid surgery recovery is in stages, because the body is different, some people recover quickly, may be a month natural, beautiful; some people recover Not very fast, there will be flesh strips, asymmetry, size of the eye and other problems that arise during the recovery period. The first stage: swelling period Time period: 3-5 days after double eyelid surgery is the most serious stage of swelling symptoms. Performance: slight wound pain, swelling, tight eyelids, more secretions, and the first day after surgery there will be blood oozing symptoms, these are normal. Treatment: Ice packs can be applied to compress the eye, using the principle of freezing to make the subcutaneous blood vessels contract to inhibit bleeding points. Because of the oozing reaction on the first day after surgery, there will be blood crusts on the eyelid wounds. Activities: During this period, it is recommended to recuperate at home, watch less TV and do not play with the phone with your head down. Phase 2: Rapid swelling reduction period Time period: 4-9 days after surgery is a phase of rapid swelling reduction. Performance: Basically, the changes are more obvious every day. The redness and bruising around the wound will gradually become lighter to yellow. In addition, the wound will often feel itchy, which is a sign that the wound is healing. Treatment: In this period must not touch the eyes with your hands, because it is easy to rub the wound open, and hands with bacteria can easily lead to infection, really uncomfortable to use a cotton swab with a little saline gently wipe it. At the same time, there is no need for ice, it is recommended to apply hot compresses. Because hot compresses will speed up the blood movement to promote a shorter recovery period, recovery faster. Activities: If you are not engaged in reception work, you can go to work normally; just cover up with thick-framed glasses. Stage 3: Continuous swelling period Time period: 10-30 days after surgery is the continuous swelling stage, after which the bruising is basically finished. (12 days after surgery and pre-operative comparison photos) Performance: usually after 10 days, the effect of double eyelids has been first seen, but because there is still swelling, so the double eyelids appear slightly larger, the shape and symmetry of the two eyes will also be a little different, at this time must not be anxious. This is because during the surgery there may be more fat on which side of the upper eyelid to deal with, and then the blood seepage will be greater. Also, nothing in the world is exactly the same, so it doesn’t matter as long as the difference between the two eyes isn’t noticeable after the three-month recovery period. Treatment: Maintain a good mood state and continue to apply hot compresses. Activities: Basically, there is no more influence on normal life. Try not to wear contact lenses or makeup on the upper lid, reduce eye use and pay attention to rest. Stage 4: Recovery and Stabilization Time period: 31-180 days after surgery is the basic form stabilization stage. Performance: The symptoms of post-operative discomfort will basically disappear. As the subcutaneous tissues heal and recover, there will be a period of scar growth, redness in the area of the blepharoplasty line, hardness of the tissues when touched, and in very rare cases, even small meatballs. Treatment: Be sure not to touch it with your hands, because the more you touch it the more irritated it is and the greater the scar proliferation will be. We can use scar softening cream to reduce and inhibit the appearance of scar growth. Activity: You can wear contact lenses, but you must pay attention to hygiene. Phase 5; double eyelid forming period Post-operative segment: 180-365 days belong to the forming phase. Performance: Generally speaking, double eyelid surgery methods are different and the recovery time is different. Slit double eyelid recovery time is slightly longer, such as the Korean three-dot recovery will be faster, buried double eyelid’s relatively simple surgery, small trauma, recovery is also fast. In addition, differences in surgeon technique, post-operative care, and personal physical differences can also lead to differences in recovery time. Treatment: At this time, the shape of the double eyelids has come out completely, and there will not be any discomfort or symptoms appear.
