1. Catgut embedding: suture to establish adhesion between skin and levator palpebrae superioris muscle, and form double eyelid. The surgical trauma is small, and the swelling is obvious 2-3 days after operation. Generally, the swelling can be obviously reduced in 5-7 days after operation, and the double eyelids can be restored to a more natural state 1 month after operation.
2. Incision surgery: it is to make an incision on the skin of the upper eyelid, remove part of the skin, orbicularis oculi muscle and fat, and make the skin adhere to the levator palpebrae superioris muscle through suture, thus forming a double eyelid. Surgical trauma is relatively large. Generally, the stitches can be removed 5-7 days after operation, and the swelling can be gradually reduced 2 weeks after operation. It takes 3-6 months to completely reduce the swelling. Click to learn more.
