Double eyelid surgery is the most common eye cosmetic surgery in plastic surgery, and it takes 5-7 days to wash your face normally after stitches are removed. Because washing your face before removing stitches, water droplets will splash on the incision line of double eyelids, and the thread ends will stay outside when sewing double eyelids, and pinholes can enter the skin. If the washing water enters the pinhole, it may aggravate the inflammation of the double eyelids, cause infection, prolong the healing time of double eyelid surgery, and even fail the operation.
You can't wash your face normally within 7 days after double eyelid surgery, but you can wash the tissues under your eyes. Be careful not to splash water droplets on the wrinkle lines of your eyes. If you accidentally spill it, you can rinse it with sterile saline, then gently wipe it with sterile cotton swab and dip it dry. The area above the eyebrows can be wiped with a wet paper towel. Don't wash your eyes hard, especially after 7 days of normal washing, because the healed scar line is not firm at this time.
