How to Reduce Swelling After Double Eyelid Surgery: Wink Plastic Surgery Explains!

Worried about swelling after double eyelid surgery?

Many people are concerned about swelling at the surgical site after double eyelid surgery, and Wink Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station provides systematic care methods for those who worry that the swelling may last a long time.

Immediately after double eyelid surgery, the incision line is red and the swelling is not severe. However, from day 2 to day 3, swelling becomes most pronounced, and in many cases the entire face may appear puffy.

On day 2 or 3, the low-temperature effect of cold compresses can slow cellular metabolism, helping reduce swelling and decrease inflammation and edema caused by tissue damage.

About two weeks to a month later, the surgical area tightens and becomes firm, and red, raised scar tissue may form. It may temporarily look unnatural, but it gradually improves, and these symptoms and minor swelling can last from 6 months to 1 year.

At Wink Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station, we use the smart LED therapy SmartLux to help reduce bruising and swelling after surgery.

To quickly reduce swelling after surgery, postoperative care at the clinic is important, but avoiding smoking and alcohol for one month is essential. You should also carefully follow the recommended instructions provided in the clinic, such as taking light walks.

Wink Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station provides 1:1 care only by Chief Director Choi Seung-hyup, from consultation to surgery and postoperative care, without proxy surgery. We perform surgery based on thorough safety preparation and extensive clinical experience.
