Instructions After Asian Blepharoplasty

# After several days of Asian blepharoplasty, some of sutures may untie or break but it is normal. There is no cause of harm until or unless your incision remains closed.

# Excess salt intake may increase swelling over eyelids, so limit the amount of salt in your food.

# Stitches from eyelids are removed in 5 to 6 days after Asian blepharoplasty surgery.

# When your surgeon remove your sutures, use antibiotic on that evening only. You should use warm compresses at least once a day after sutures are removed. Do this thing for 3 or 4 days.

# After Asian blepharoplasty you may not be able to open your eyelids fully for first three weeks. You can use artificial tear preparation during the day. It may feel comfortable with that.

# You can apply light concealer make-up on upper cheek area after 5 days. This may help you to camouflage any bruising. You can use regular eyelid cosmetics after 10 days. Application of Vitamin E oil can harm you, so do not apply it. In Asian blepharoplasty, special scar reducing creams or gels are of no use. Instead of this you can use eyelid moisturizing cream.

# After three day of Asian blepharoplasty, the improvement in your eyelids begin slowly. Most of swelling and bruising gone after 2 to 3 weeks. Although 20% of swelling remains for long period. You have to be more patient because your crease will improve day by day and may take 4 months to reach at final position.

# You can reuse your contact lens after 8- 10 days of Asian blepharoplasty.

# Initially your incision turns to red and becomes slightly bumpy and elevated. Its scar will continue to fade by the time.

# Do not expect success of Asian blepharoplasty with early recovery. There may be some imbalance between the two eyelids due their healing rate and variation in swelling. Final healing may be expected in 12 to 14 months and your eyelids will look alike.
