The next day after double eyelid surgery, the eyelids were more swollen

How long will the swelling last after double eyelid surgery? This is a question that many people who have undergone double eyelid surgery are concerned about. In fact, how many days the swelling lasts after double eyelid surgery depends on the surgical method and the individual's physical condition. Some people will be able to return to normal in a very short time, while others say that the swelling becomes even worse the next day. Below I will give you a detailed explanation of this issue.

Postoperative care for double eyelid surgery with buried suture method:

1. Prevention and treatment of bleeding, congestion or hematoma from surgical wounds. External impact to the eyes after surgery, strenuous exercise or erratic emotions can cause wound bleeding, bruising or hematoma. To prevent the occurrence of the above complications, you can apply pressure to the local wound or use an ice pack to cool it, but the pressure should not be too high to avoid damaging the eyes. If continuous bleeding or severe hematoma occurs after surgery, you should go to the hospital for follow-up consultation in time.

2. There will be some pain in the wound on the day of buried suture double eyelid surgery, but it will gradually ease with the passage of time. Patients should not rush to take painkillers because aspirin-like drugs will aggravate wound bleeding.

3. Keep the wound clean to prevent infection. Whether it is buried suture double eyelid surgery or other procedures, it is very important to clean the wound after surgery. If the wound is not clean, it is easy to get infected, resulting in the formation of scars.

become. So be careful not to wet the wound when washing your face after surgery. The eye dressing can be removed 1 to 2 days after the operation. If there are blood scabs or secretions on the wound, they can be wiped with sterile saline or medical alcohol.

4. You should rest in a quiet and comfortable environment after the operation. The indoor air should be fresh and circulated and maintain a certain temperature. Increase your protein intake in your diet and eat more fruits and fresh vegetables. Do not watch TV or read newspapers within one week after the operation. It is best to rest in bed in a semi-recumbent position (with a raised pillow) to avoid excessive eye fatigue or low head position which may aggravate the swelling of the wound.
