What are the details of double eyelid post-operative care?

In addition to individual differences in how quickly double eyelid surgery is recovered, the details of post-operative life care are also very crucial: First, blepharoplasty keeps the wound clean and prevents infection It is very important to keep the wound clean after surgery, if the wound is not clean, infection can easily occur, leading to the formation of wound scars. So be careful not to wet the wound when washing your face after surgery. You can take off the dressing on your eyes 1 to 2 days after surgery. If there is blood scab or secretion on the wound, sterile saline can be used to wipe it. You should not take any painkillers for blepharoplasty. There will be some pain in the wound on the day of surgery, but this will gradually decrease over time. Do not rush to take painkillers, as aspirin-based drugs can aggravate the wound blood. Bleeding, bruising or hematoma can occur if small blood vessels are damaged during surgery or if the bleeding is not completely stopped during surgery, if the eyes are struck externally after surgery, if there is intense movement or unpredictable emotions. To prevent these complications, local wounds can be covered with gauze or cold compresses with ice packs, but the pressure should not be high to avoid damage to the eyes. The third day after surgery, the gauze should be removed and the eyes should be opened as soon as possible. Only by constantly strengthening the movement of the eyes, the blood circulation in the eye muscles and surrounding tissues can be stimulated to reduce and gradually eliminate the swelling at the surgical site and promote the early absorption of the surgical bruises. Some people still use sunscreen products that contain heavy metals such as mercury after eyelid surgery. These heavy metal cosmetics may aggravate the scarring of the surgical incision, and if you have a scarred body, it can add insult to injury. Therefore, during the three to six months after surgery, which is the proliferation period for surgical scars, you should not use makeup containing heavy metals to coat your eyes. Many people have fully recovered from their surgical incisions, but the surgical site still feels tight and taut, which makes them feel dull and makes others look awkward. In fact, this is a normal phenomenon after surgery. As long as the area is moisturized and softened, the tightness will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, once the eyelid surgery incisions are fully healed, you can use moisturizing, tissue-softening and heavy metal-free skin care cosmetics from regular manufacturers. After blepharoplasty, you should have a quiet and comfortable environment to recuperate. The air in your room should be fresh and circulated and kept at a certain temperature. Increase your protein intake in your diet, and eat more fruits and fresh vegetables.
