After the operation, the outer pouch looks natural, which usually takes about 3 months. It may take 3-6 months to recover if you are older or have scar constitution. The recovery time of external pouch is longer. External eye bags are mainly aimed at older patients, who have the problem of loose skin and need to remove excess skin, so there will be incisions on the skin, which will easily lead to scar formation. It takes 3-6 months for the scar to gradually turn white and gradually become inconspicuous. In addition to incision recovery, the wound in the patient's skin also needs to be recovered, and scar tissue is also formed between the skin and the orbicularis oculi muscle, which needs to be gradually absorbed and softened.
Scar will become harder and harder in the early stage within 1 month, and contracture may occur. After 1 month, it will gradually soften and absorb, so patients need to wait patiently. In this process, hot compress, physical therapy and other methods can be used to promote local absorption, and silicone products can also be used to promote incision recovery and reduce scar hyperplasia.
