How to reduce swelling after double eyelid surgery

Some women have small eyes due to congenital or acquired factors, and are single-eyed girls. They want to have double eyelids, but they find it troublesome to stick on double eyelids with makeup, so they choose to have double eyelid surgery to have a pair of real eyelids. However, their eyelids are swollen after the surgery, so how to reduce the swelling? This becomes a problem they consider.

After double eyelid surgery, since we have just completed a minor operation, there are still wounds on the eyelids. Under normal circumstances, they can return to normal and the swelling will subside in a week, but sometimes it takes a long time for the swelling to subside. So how to reduce the swelling? It is very necessary for us to follow the doctor's instructions.

1. Pay attention to strengthening the exercise of eye muscles. Double eyelid surgery usually requires covering the incision for one day. The covering gauze should be removed on the second day after the operation, and eye-opening exercises should be performed as soon as possible. Only by continuously strengthening the exercise of opening your eyes wide can you promote blood circulation in the eye muscles and surrounding tissues, reduce and gradually eliminate swelling in the surgical area, and promote the early absorption of surgical blood stasis.

2. Prevent scar hyperplasia at the surgical site. Some people still use anti-wrinkle sunscreen products containing heavy metals such as mercury after eyelid surgery. These cosmetics and skin care products containing heavy metals may aggravate the proliferation of scars from surgical incisions, and if you are a person with a scar-prone constitution, it will make the situation even worse. Therefore, the three to six months after surgery is the proliferation period of surgical scars. During this period, you must not use cosmetics and skin care products containing heavy metals.

3. Pay attention to moisturizing and softening the eyelid tissue. For many people, the surgical incisions have completely recovered to normal, but the surgical area still feels tight, which makes them feel stiff and looks awkward to others. In fact, this phenomenon is a normal phenomenon after surgery. As long as you do a good job of local moisturizing and softening, the feeling of tightness will be alleviated accordingly. Therefore, after the incision of double eyelid surgery has completely healed, you can use some skin care cosmetics produced by regular manufacturers that moisturize, soften tissues and do not contain heavy metals.

Now that you know how to reduce swelling, are you also excited? But I need to remind you that you must go to a regular hospital for this operation. Their technology, medical supplies, etc. are guaranteed. This is the safest way for yourself. Don't go to those private clinics to save a dime or two, otherwise you will definitely regret your decision.
