Double eyelid surgery eyelid hyperplasia

Double eyelids are a type of eye appearance that people like, but some people have single eyelids, so they will try to get double eyelids. It has become a trend for people to undergo double eyelid surgery nowadays, but after the surgery, people will find that double eyelid surgery can cause some side effects. Then you should always pay attention to protect your eyes to avoid harm, so what should you do if you have hyperplasia at the corners of your eyes after double eyelid surgery?

Although double eyelid surgery attracts many people, some of the sequelae and scar hyperplasia after the surgery also make many beauty lovers particularly anxious. Scar hyperplasia, also known as scar tumor, is caused by excessive proliferation of fibrous connective tissue. This proliferation is usually bright red in color, and the skin and surrounding tissues are shiny and slightly white.

Double eyelid surgery, also known as double eyelid surgery, will require a period of recovery due to the incision and suture. Scar hyperplasia is very easy to occur during the recovery period, which requires us to do a good job of prevention to avoid the trouble caused by unnecessary scar hyperplasia. To prevent scar hyperplasia, we need to pay special attention to the following points:

1. Pay attention to wound cleaning after surgery

If the wound is not clean, it is easy to get infected and form scars, so do not get the wound wet after surgery. If there are blood scabs or secretions on the wound, they can be wiped off with sterile saline or medical alcohol.

2. Pay attention to moisturizing and softening the eyelid tissue

Many people still feel tightness in their eyelids during the recovery period. In fact, this is a normal phenomenon. As long as the local area is moisturized and softened, the tension will be reduced. If you persist for a long time, this tightness will disappear and return to its natural state.

3. Pay attention to the enhancement of eye muscle movement

Eyelid surgery usually requires covering the incision with gauze, which is removed the next day. Performing eye-opening exercises early can promote blood circulation around the eyes, reduce or eliminate swelling of the incision, and allow the eyes to return to normal as soon as possible.

4. Pay attention to the prevention and treatment of scar hyperplasia in the double eyelid area

Avoid using some sunscreens and anti-wrinkle cosmetics, especially those containing heavy metals such as mercury. These cosmetics are not only of no benefit to our skin, but also will aggravate the scar hyperplasia of the incision. The length of scar hyperplasia after double eyelid surgery varies from person to person. Some people recover quickly, and usually the recovery period is about three months, which is very natural. Some people recover more slowly and are still in the scar proliferation period of about three months. It is recommended that you apply some scar softening cream to help recovery at this time.

The proportion of people with scar-prone physique is very small in the population. People with scar-prone physique will be left with scars even from minor injuries in life. For those who are born with scar-prone constitution, they must fully communicate with the doctor before surgery so that the doctor can develop a good surgical plan. In addition, patients who have undergone double eyelid surgery need to adjust their mentality and wait patiently for recovery. Postoperative care during this period is very important and should not be neglected.
