Double eyelid incision surgery for half a month, one eye has recovered and the other eye is still very swollen. How can it reduce swelling?
1. Avoid touching the surgical site with unclean hands to avoid bacterial infection. If you rub your eyes hard when removing makeup, even a small gap of bacteria may enter the operation area through it. The surgical traces cured after inflammation are particularly obvious, and inflammation may also affect the shape of double eyelids, so attention should be paid to preventing inflammation.

2. Postoperation postures also need to be paid attention to temporarily. For example, if you bend your head to read or lie prone, the swelling will be aggravated, so you'd better hold your head back and rest in a comfortable chair with your head resting and sleeping, which will help to reduce swelling as soon as possible.

3. Just after the operation, it is best to cover the operation site with a small gauze and apply cold compress with ice, because cooling will shrink the blood vessels of eyelids, prevent capillary bleeding, prevent postoperative bruising or swelling, and the low temperature will weaken the feeling and reduce the pain that may occur after waking up from anesthesia. It is necessary to wrap the ice cubes in plastic bags or plastic foam and put them gently on the eyes. At the same time, it is necessary to prevent the ice cubes from leaking out and entering the surgical site after melting, which will lead to bacterial infection. Cold compress only takes about 1-2 days after operation, and then hot compress is needed. Hot compress can help blood circulation and help to reduce swelling.

4. Just after the operation, about 5% of people look different from left to right, and more than 9% of them are caused by the difference of swelling on both sides. Therefore, don't always look in the mirror for a few months before the double eyelid shape is completely fixed, but try to keep a relaxed mood. Very few people are a little different after swelling, but everyone's left and right eyes can't be exactly the same, so a little difference in nature doesn't hinder the appearance, so don't be too sad. If you are still very concerned at this time, you need to fully communicate with us before deciding whether to adjust.

5. Most eye plastic surgery can be cured without taking medicine after operation, but it is easier to get better if you take antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs for about 3-5 days. Antibiotics can prevent bacterial invasion, and anti-inflammatory drugs can reduce swelling. These drugs can be taken after meals, 2-3 times a day (we will clearly instruct you about detailed usage, dosage and precautions), but if you feel uncomfortable or have allergic reactions after taking them, you should reduce or stop taking them.

6. People often think that it is not good to blink frequently after operation, or that it is beautiful to open your eyes and double eyelids, but this is not the case. Just open your eyes and close your eyes naturally as usual.

7. People who wear contact lenses should not wear them within 2-3 weeks after operation according to the doctor's advice.

8. The suture can be removed in about 5-7 days after double eyelid plastic surgery, and daily activities can be carried out after 5 days. After surgery, the incision must be disinfected for about a week, and then the face can be washed. It takes about 1-6 months to completely reduce swelling.

9. Catgut embedding and partial incision can remove stitches after 1-2 days, sometimes even without stitches, and you can wash your face and make up about 3 days after operation.
