Recommended Place for Double-Eyelid Extension Eye Surgery in Nonhyeon: When Can You Wear Contact Lenses and Apply Eye Makeup After Extension Surgery at Gangnam Note Plastic Surgery?

Hello, I’m Lee Bo-hyung, Director of Note Plastic Surgery.

Today, I’d like to talk about double-eyelid extension eye surgery, which many people are curious about. When can you wear contact lenses or apply eye makeup after extension surgery?

Many people ask about the right time to resume everyday beauty routines after extension surgery, and the safest standard is when the stitches have been removed and the wound has healed sufficiently.

In general, contact lenses can directly irritate the surgical area, so we recommend waiting about one week after stitch removal.

Because the action of pulling the eyelids up and down when putting in or removing lenses can weaken the fine fixation of the surgical area, extra caution is needed at the beginning.

Eye makeup can also allow cosmetic particles to get into the wound and cause inflammation, so it is advisable to start at least 1–2 weeks after stitch removal.

In particular, rather than heavy makeup such as eyeliner or mascara, it is better to begin with light shadow, and when cleansing, you should be careful not to apply excessive friction around the eyes.

Recovery speed may vary depending on an individual’s constitution or the extent of the extension surgery, so please check from time to time whether the redness around the wound has subsided to some degree.

If your eyes temporarily sting or you feel a strong foreign-body sensation after wearing makeup or contact lenses, stop immediately and rest for a few more days.

Ultimately, to maintain a beautiful line for a long time, it is most important to wait patiently until the wound tissue is completely free from external irritation.

Only with this kind of careful care can the clear results of extension surgery settle in healthily without side effects.

Note Plastic Surgery minimizes swelling and pain by reducing unnecessary irritation during surgery, so that patients do not have a difficult time returning to daily life.

We find the customized line that suits you best through sufficient consultation before surgery, so that the eye’s horizontal length and angle can harmonize with the overall facial proportions.

We provide attentive care so you can feel at ease throughout the recovery period, and over time we help complete a natural beauty that feels as comfortable as your own eyes.
