After we have undergone double eyelid surgery, our eyes look more profound, so many friends can choose the full-cut double eyelid plastic surgery. After undergoing double eyelid surgery, there will also be significant swelling, and this swelling must be treated with cold compresses as soon as possible. So, what is the appropriate method for cold compressing during the cold compress? On the day of surgery, the time for cold compressing can be increased, and only 1 to 2 hours are needed at other times. Generally, it is only necessary to cold compress for three days, and it should not be chosen after the third day. Instead, it should be chosen to apply heat, which can reasonably promote blood circulation and quickly relieve the swelling of the eyes.

Proper cold compress method for full-cut double eyelids

1. Immediate cold compress after surgery: It can relieve edema and hematomas, and the cold compress time can be longer, but only on the day of surgery. In fact, when we do one eye during surgery, the doctor will use a wet gauze soaked in saline to compress the operated eyes to relieve edema.

2. Try to avoid lowering your head on the day of surgery, do not drink water before going to bed, and raise the pillow core a little when sleeping at night. The nursing care on the day of surgery is very important. Follow the above method, and the swelling of the eyes the next day will definitely be lighter, and the recovery will definitely be faster.

3. Starting from the second day after surgery, try to open your eyes as much as possible and do not sleep in a lazy manner. Generally, it is more swollen in the morning, and it will subside a lot in the afternoon and evening.

4. If there is significant hematomas the next day, it is appropriate to take some Yunnan Baiyao or Sanqi powder.

Patients who have had double eyelid surgery may experience swelling due to partial damage, and they can apply cold compresses with medical ice packs within 24 hours. However, it is recommended to place a moisture-proof protective layer outside the medical ice pack to prevent the wound from sticking to the melted water of the medical ice pack. And the time of each cold compress should not be too long, and the skin needs to be relieved for a period of time after 15 to 20 minutes.

After surgery, cold compress can be used within 24 hours to reduce bleeding and prevent swelling from recurring. After 24 hours, heat can be applied to promote blood circulation, but attention must be paid to the cleanliness of the medical ice packs to avoid contamination of the wound leading to infection.
