How to remove stitches for double eyelids

summary

Some time ago, I just went to the beauty salon for double eyelid surgery. At that time, I went home without removing the stitches. After a while, I went to the hospital to remove the stitches. Now I feel that some places around my eyes are a little painful, and my eyes are still a little swollen. Today, let me learn how to remove stitches after double eyelid surgery.

How to remove stitches for double eyelids

First: it is very important to clean the wound after double eyelid cutting. If the wound is not clean, it is easy to get infection, leading to the formation of scar. So pay attention not to wet the wound when washing face after operation. The dressing on the eyes can be removed 1-2 days after the operation. If there is blood scab or secretion on the wound, it can be wiped with sterile saline or medical alcohol.

Second: in order to remove the suture as soon as possible, we need to do a series of work after the operation. Ice compress should be applied immediately after double eyelid cutting. Ice compress can be applied continuously for 1-3 hours or once an hour, three times a day. Ice compress in the first three days has the effect of detumescence.

Third: the suture can be removed in five to seven days after double eyelid surgery. The best time for double eyelid surgery is 10 to 15 days after surgery. The special suture can only be removed after the formation of double eyelid. After double eyelid surgery, apply hot compress for 10 minutes every day to avoid long-term exposure to the sun.

matters needing attention

Under normal circumstances, the doctor will stick a piece of gauze on the eye after the operation. If he wants to remove the gauze after 24 hours, he can remove it slowly or ask someone for help. But remember not to remove the gauze by force, which is likely to cause bleeding. If he can't remove it, it's usually the blood and gauze sticking together. It's best to ask the doctor for help.
