How many days does ptosis correction surgery need to reduce swelling? Many people will choose surgery to correct it, and everyone is worried about postoperative swelling. The actual time to correct swelling is not an exact number, but is related to many factors. The following is introduced by Hu Junfeng plastic surgery experts. The actual detumescence time will vary according to different methods, mainly depending on everyone's specific situation. Under normal circumstances, as long as the relevant nursing is done well, the swelling can be reduced as soon as possible. In fact, ptosis can be unilateral or bilateral. These two phenomena are actually a kind of ptosis or ptosis. Congenital ptosis is mostly caused by congenital weakness of levator palpebrae superioris muscle and congenital oculomotor nerve dysplasia. The latter also has dysplasia of superior rectus muscle. Acquired ptosis can be caused by nervous system diseases, trauma, fracture compression, scar contracture, edema, hematoma or tumor, which can be corrected in time through surgery. Specific to different people, because everyone chooses different surgical methods, the actual time for swelling reduction will be different. Experts pointed out that for severe patients, frontalis muscle flap can be used to hang down; Mild and moderate ptosis can be corrected by shortening levator palpebrae superioris muscle. Carefully adjust the height of ptosis: No matter which method is used to correct ptosis, the height of ptosis should be adjusted. Because the efficacy of the operation will not disappear immediately, you may feel sleepy after the operation. Pay more attention to rest after discharge, and you can't drive a vehicle or engage in aerial work after operation. When sleeping, you can put the pillow higher, try to avoid water on the surgical site within 7 days after operation, and don't rub the eyelid area too much when washing your face.
