In the early 72 hours after double eyelid surgery, local cold compresses with ice packs can be used, especially cold compresses 3 hours after surgery, which can effectively prevent postoperative edema and relieve pain.
Start local hot compresses on the 3rd day after surgery or after the sutures are removed. Hot compresses are used to activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, so that wound scars can heal quickly.
Whether it is a cold compress or a hot compress, you must not let water get the wound wet. You must pay attention to keeping it clean and dry. If the wound becomes infected, you must go to the hospital for examination in time and do not handle it without authorization.
