Redness is still noticeable at the time of suture removal, which is performed about one week after surgery, but can be covered with eye makeup after the stitches are removed. Around one month after surgery, the redness begins to subside, and three to six months after surgery, the scars usually become whitish lines that blend in with the surrounding skin and become less noticeable.

Flow of treatment and how to spend time after the surgery

Finally, we will explain the flow of the procedure from counseling to surgery, as well as some precautions on how to spend your time after the surgery.
■ Steps from counseling to treatment and aftercare
Let's take a look at the process from counseling to treatment and aftercare.
- Counseling:The doctor will discuss the patient's concerns and ideal eye area in detail, and examine the size and shape of the eyes and the condition of the mongolian folds. We will then simulate the procedure, and together we will discuss the design and technique (Z- or W-method, etc.), taking into consideration the balance of the entire eye area. The risks of the procedure and the post-operative course will also be explained in detail, so please feel free to express any questions or concerns you may have.
- Day of treatment:After the visit, the patient will wash his/her face and confirm the final design and markings. Eye drop anesthesia and local anesthesia are administered, and the procedure is performed with consideration for pain. Depending on the procedure, the surgery takes about 20-45 minutes.
- Postoperative:You will receive precautions and medications and go home. Stitches are usually removed approximately one week after the procedure.
■An estimate of downtime and notes on how to spend it
The downtime for an eyelid incision is generally one to two weeks. Swelling and internal bleeding peak about 3 days after surgery, settling down in about 2 weeks and approaching a natural state over 3 to 6 months.
In addition, the following points should be kept in mind during the downtime.
- Acts to promote blood circulation:To avoid worsening swelling and internal bleeding, exercise, alcohol consumption, and prolonged bathing should be avoided for 1 week to 10 days after surgery.
- Avoid blood pooling around the eyes:If the face is kept face down for long periods of time, blood flow can easily accumulate around the eyes. When sleeping, elevate the head above the heart to reduce swelling and internal bleeding.
- Cool the eye area:Wrapping a coolant in a clean towel and cooling it will help reduce swelling. However, cooling is not necessary after the swelling has subsided, as blood flow will be blocked.
- Do not touch the eye area unnecessarily:Try not to touch the eye area as it will affect the scar process. Eye makeup can be applied after the stitches are removed.
- Resumption of contact:It can often be used starting one week after surgery after the stitches are removed, but follow your doctor's instructions.
