These are normal symptoms, much like dry eyes, mild tearing, or a burning sensation. To alleviate them, it is enough to use cold compresses, moisturizing eye drops, and ointments recommended by a doctor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In case of severe pain, large bruises, vision disturbances, and increasing swelling, contact a doctor. Rarely occurring complications include incomplete closure or <strong>eversion of the eyelid<\/strong>, which result in the drying out of the eyeball. To reduce the risk of such occurrences, undergo eyelid surgery at a professional clinic with a surgeon who will carefully plan and then meticulously perform the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wounds after blepharoplasty \u2013 how to care for them?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wounds after blepharoplasty heal gradually. After a properly performed surgery, the scars are barely visible and bruising is minor. Until the stitches are removed, which happens about 7 days after the procedure, do not remove the tapes protecting the wounds that were applied during the surgery. Once the doctor removes the stitches, it is advisable to moisturize the scars with a special ointment and use high UV protection creams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Immediately after the procedure<\/strong> limit the use of television, laptop, and phone, and you will speed up wound healing. For the first<strong> one year after eyelid surgery<\/strong> protect scars from the sun \u2013 sunglasses or makeup will work well for this purpose. For 3 weeks after the procedure, do not play sports, and avoid the swimming pool, sauna, and solarium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/panel.goodcontent.pl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blefaroplastyka nie bez przyczyny nale\u017cy do najcz\u0119\u015bciej wybieranych zabieg\u00f3w medycyny estetycznej.
