What should be paid attention to in postoperative nursing of double eyelids?
First, keep the wound clean to prevent infection.

It is very important to clean the wound after the operation. If the wound is not clean, it is prone to infection, leading to the formation of wound scars. So be careful not to wet the wound when washing your face after operation. 65438+ 0 ~ 2 days after operation, the dressing on the eye can be removed. If there is blood scab or secretion on the wound, it can be wiped with sterile saline or medical alcohol.

Second, don't take painkillers casually.

There will be some pain in the wound on the day of operation, but it will gradually decrease with time. Patients should not rush to take painkillers, because aspirin drugs will aggravate wound bleeding.

Three, surgical wound bleeding, congestion or hematoma prevention and treatment

If the small blood vessels are injured or the bleeding is not completely stopped during the operation, the eyes will be impacted by the outside world after the operation, and strenuous exercise or emotional change will cause bleeding, congestion or hematoma. In order to prevent the occurrence of the above complications, local wounds can be bandaged with pressure or cold compress with ice packs, but the pressure should not be too high to avoid eye damage. If there is bleeding and severe hematoma after operation, you should go to the hospital for a follow-up visit as soon as possible.

Fourth, pay attention to strengthening the movement of eye muscles.

Double eyelid surgery usually needs to cover the incision for one day, and then take off the covered gauze the next day after the operation, so as to open his eyes as soon as possible. Only by continuously strengthening the eye opening movement can we promote the blood circulation of eye muscles and surrounding tissues, reduce and gradually eliminate the swelling of the surgical site and promote the early absorption of surgical congestion.

Five, to prevent scar hyperplasia at the surgical site.

Some people still use some anti-wrinkle sunscreen products containing heavy metals such as mercury after double eyelid surgery. These cosmetics and skin care products containing heavy metals may aggravate the scar hyperplasia of surgical incision, and the situation will be even worse if they are people with scar constitution. Therefore, within three to six months after operation, it is the proliferative period of surgical scars. During this period, cosmetics and skin care products containing heavy metals shall not be used.

Sixth, pay attention to the moisturizing and softening of eyelid tissue.

Many people's surgical incisions have completely returned to normal, but the surgical site still feels nervous and dull, and others look awkward. In fact, this phenomenon is normal after surgery. As long as the local moisturizing and softening are done well, the tension will be reduced accordingly. Therefore, after double eyelid surgery's incision is completely healed, you can use some skin care cosmetics made by regular manufacturers that moisturize and soften tissues and contain no heavy metals.

Seven, postoperative should have a quiet and comfortable environment to recuperate.

Indoor air should be fresh and circulated, and maintain a certain temperature. Increase protein's intake in diet, and eat more fruits and fresh vegetables. Don't watch TV or newspaper for 1 week after operation, and it is best to lie in a semi-supine position (raising the pillow) when lying in bed, so as to avoid eye fatigue or lowering the head and aggravate the swelling of the wound.
