Can people with scars have double eyelids?

Double eyelid surgery can make our eyes look bigger and brighter, so many girls with single eyelids want to try this technique. But everyone knows that after double eyelid surgery, a very small number of people will have scars, which affects the appearance. Especially for some people with scar-prone constitution, they are even more hesitant. So, can people with scar-prone constitution have double eyelids? Let’s learn about it today.

People with scar-prone physique account for a very small proportion of the population, and the symptoms are manifested after the wound heals. The surface scar continues to grow, which not only affects the appearance, but also causes local pain, redness and itching. Scar contraction also affects functional movement. Because there are very few people with a scar-prone physique, some books also refer to people with keloids as having a scar-prone physique. Keloids are characterized by scars that grow outward after the wound heals, protruding from the skin surface, being hard, and may also feel red and painful, but after growing to a certain extent, they will no longer continue to expand.

For people with this kind of scar-prone constitution, double eyelid surgery is not suitable for those with severe scars. For mild cases, you need to consult a professional doctor and get his consent before undergoing double eyelid surgery. Therefore, before choosing to undergo double eyelid surgery, I hope everyone will go for a plastic surgery check-up to confirm whether they have a scar-prone physique.

If the skin around the needle hole becomes red and has a slight nodule, this is a normal reaction and no special treatment is required. Another situation is that there is always a nodule on the skin at the suture site 1 week or more after the operation. This situation is often caused by incomplete embedding of the suture knot, which stimulates the skin tissue to produce a chronic inflammatory reaction.

For treatment, local physical therapy, local application of some ampicillin ointment and hot compress can be used to wait for recovery. Generally, the disease can be absorbed by itself without leaving any sequelae. Whether to take some anti-inflammatory drugs after double eyelid surgery needs to be considered by a professional doctor. When choosing to undergo double eyelid surgery, you must go to a regular plastic surgery clinic. Only regular plastic surgery can provide us with the best treatment and ensure the safety and effectiveness of the surgery.

Is it okay to have double eyelid surgery if you have scars? Strictly speaking, people with scar-prone constitutions are not suitable for double eyelid surgery. Even if they want to do it, they need the approval of professionals. It is also best to choose a procedure that causes small wounds, such as minimally invasive double eyelid surgery, to avoid leaving ugly scars on the skin.
