Double eyelid cutting is the mainstream project of medical and aesthetic plastic surgery now, but many people have finished double eyelid surgery, which leads to conjunctival edema, which makes everyone more worried, so many people ask whether conjunctival edema after double eyelid surgery is normal? Can it heal itself? What should we do? Let's take a look at Du Jifeng, an eye plastic surgeon in Xinglin, Shenyang!

First, find out why conjunctival edema occurs.

Conjunctival edema is mainly caused by conjunctival vasodilation exudate entering loose bulbar conjunctival tissue, which is mostly seen in ophthalmopathy and after surgery. In fact, there is not much conjunctival edema after eyelid surgery. For moderate and severe ptosis correction, external corner and eyelid surgery.

Is conjunctival edema normal after double eyelid incision? What should I do?

Dr. Du Jifeng: Conjunctival edema after eyelid resection is a normal problem. Generally, there is no need to worry about the stimulation of surgical trauma. Because the skin of the eyes is fragile and the tissue is loose, edema is likely to occur after surgery, but it can be recovered in three to seven days.

However, if conjunctival edema occurs after surgery, the cause of edema should be determined. If it is caused by infection, it is recommended to pay attention to oral anti-inflammatory drugs for wound hygiene at ordinary times, and it will take some time for edema to subside.

In addition, good living and eating habits must be developed after the operation, and attention should be paid to the care of the eyelid. If the double eyelid edema is still not improved after one week, you must go to the hospital for detailed inspection as soon as possible and timely treatment.
