1, expansion stage
65438+ 0-3 days after operation is the most serious stage/period.
The wound is slightly painful, the swelling is obvious, the eyelids are tight, and there are many secretions. It is normal to have symptoms of oozing blood on the first day after surgery.
At this time, you can use ice to compress your eyes and use the principle of freezing to contract subcutaneous blood vessels to inhibit bleeding. Because of the oozing reaction on the first day after operation, there will be blood scabs on the wounds of double eyelids. Don't be nervous about it. You need to go to the hospital to change your dressing. The nurse will wash her eyes with normal saline, and then gently wipe off the scab with complex iodine.
2. Fast fading stage
4-9 days after operation is the stage/period of rapid swelling reduction.
Basically, the daily changes are more obvious. The redness and bruises around the wound will gradually turn from light to yellow. Besides, I often feel itchy, which is a sign that the wound is healing. This period is also the period of stitches removal. At this time, you must not touch your eyes with your hands, because it is easy to rub the wound open. If you are really uncomfortable, you can gently wipe your eyes with a cotton swab dipped in normal saline. There is no need for ice at this time. Hot compress is recommended. Because at this time, hot compress will accelerate the blood supply, shorten the recovery period and recover faster.
3. Sustained phase
10- 30 days after operation is the stage/period of continuous swelling reduction.
Generally, after ten days, the effect of double eyelids has begun to appear, but because there is still swelling, double eyelids are generally slightly larger than normal. The shape and symmetry of the eyes will be a little different, so don't worry at this time. Because there may be more fat on both sides during the operation, there will be more bleeding. In addition, there is nothing exactly the same in the world, as long as the gap between the eyes is not too big after the three-month recovery period, it doesn't matter. At this time, you must keep a good mood and continue to apply hot compress.
4, stable stage
3 1- 180 days after operation is the stable stage/period of basic morphology.
The symptoms of postoperative discomfort are basically gone. However, due to the healing and recovery of the subcutaneous tissue of the wound, this period is a period of scar hyperplasia. There will be red, swollen and hard tissue at the double eyelid line, and some people will even have small meat balls. At this time, you must not touch it all the time, because the more stimulation you touch, the greater the scar hyperplasia. Therefore, before this, we can use scar softening cream when removing stitches to reduce and inhibit the occurrence of scar hyperplasia.
5. Forming stage
180- 365 days after operation belongs to the molding stage/period.
At this time, the shape of the double eyelids has completely come out, and there will be no discomfort and symptoms.
But if the shape is not particularly good at this time, you must remember to go to the hospital to communicate with the doctor for repair surgery according to the situation and personal requirements.
In short, if you have any discomfort during the period, remember to communicate with the attending doctor in time. If you want a more natural postoperative effect, you must follow the doctor's advice and do a good job in postoperative maintenance!
