How to recover double eyelids the fastest

There will definitely be more or less swelling after double eyelid surgery. You should first observe whether the swelling is serious. If the swelling is severe, you can ask the doctor and take the corresponding anti-inflammatory drugs according to the doctor's instructions. Do not touch your eyes with your hands, as bacteria on your hands may cause infection. Do not wash your eyes with water or rub them with your hands within three days. Try to avoid strong light and other irritants to the eyes, use mobile phones and computers less, rest your eyes every hour, do not stay up late, and keep your eyelids relaxed.

①: Ice compress + hot compress

Why do we use ice and heat compresses? I believe everyone has heard of the principle of thermal expansion and contraction. Generally, we apply cold compresses three days before double eyelid surgery, mainly to pre-cool and contract the damaged vascular tissue under the skin, reduce bleeding points, and alleviate hematoma reactions. After three days, the subcutaneous vascular tissue has basically healed and you can start applying hot compresses. The heat can speed up the blood circulation around the eyes and accelerate the absorption of blood stasis and reduce swelling. It is recommended to apply ice 2-3 times a day for 10-15 minutes. After hot compress, apply 2-3 times a day for 15-20 minutes. Note: Whether applying ice or hot compress, be sure to wrap the wound with gauze or a plastic bag to avoid water dripping on the wound to avoid infection. Continue to apply hot compress for about 7-10 days after the stitches are removed.

② Blinking exercise + eye lifting exercise

Blinking exercises and eye lifting exercises can generally be started from the third day after surgery. It mainly uses the power of the orbicularis oculi muscle to promote blood circulation in the eye and quickly reduce congestion and swelling.

③ Raise your pillow when sleeping

During the recovery period of double eyelids, you can try to sleep with a high pillow to keep your head high and your feet low. Because this body position can accelerate the body's circulation during sleep, and avoid the occurrence of edema reaction caused by the prohibition of body circulation after waking up.

④Happy mood

Anyone who has double eyelid surgery will have to go through a recovery process. Although this recovery process is very difficult and embarrassing, as long as you get through this period, your eyes will naturally become beautiful. Therefore, we must maintain a good attitude and don’t cry just because of a little unhappiness in the recovery process. Eyes that have cried will make the swelling of the double eyelids go down more slowly.

⑤ Relax your mind during surgery and the swelling will naturally go down faster

Many people will start to get nervous when they get on the operating table. Although this is an inevitable psychological reaction, if you remain in a nervous state during the operation, your heartbeat will accelerate, your eyelids will tremble, and even your blood pressure will rise. Bleeding during the operation will naturally be serious, and this situation will definitely affect the recovery time of your double eyelids later.
