Simone's Personal Eyelid Correction Treatment Experience<\/h1>\n <\/div>\n
\n

An upper eyelid correction can be a big step that often involves sufficient preliminary research and considerations. But what can you expect after the procedure?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our dear client Simone shares her personal experience with her eyelid surgery<\/a> at SkinSurgery Clinics. Simone has kept a detailed diary in which she honestly talks about the aftercare, her recovery process and how she felt after the procedure.<\/p>\n

Are you also considering getting a upper eyelid correction<\/a> treatment?<\/p>\n

Then read Simone's story for inspiration, but keep in mind that every recovery is unique and can vary from person to person.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Day 1 (05-07-24): 1 hour after surgery<\/h2>\n

Today at 09:00 I was operated on. The anesthetic injections were not too bad, the operation was done in no time (30 minutes). During the operation I felt some heat and pressure, but absolutely no pain. After this I immediately cooled down and was allowed to go home. At home I continued cooling down (every hour for fifteen minutes). I alternated this with both frozen peas and round cool packs. During the day I experienced a headache and a heavy feeling\/pressure.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Day 2 (06-07-24): Morning after surgery, just woke up (not yet cooled)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Day 2 (06-07-24): In the evening, cooled all day<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I had a very good night. I put my mattress up and slept half sitting. From the morning I started cooling down again. Furthermore, I rinsed some water over my face for the first time. I did this with a soft shower jet and lukewarm water. After showering I had a little blood loss (light red, so combined with some wound fluid). Until the end of the afternoon I felt some pressure on my eyes\/head.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n

Day 3 (07-07-24): in the morning, just woke up (not yet cooled)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Day 3 (07-07-24): in the evening<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the morning I had some swelling, so I started cooling. Just like yesterday I took a shower again and carefully wet my eyes. I carefully dried it by dabbing it. This time I had no blood loss\/wound fluid. The swelling decreased during the day. I cooled a total of 3 times today, because I liked doing this.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n

Day 4 (08-07-24)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Also this morning some swelling again, which is of course not surprising because you sleep all night. Last night was the first time that I had my mattress normally again. I am normally a side sleeper, but I managed to stay on my back. Occasionally with my face turned a little to one side. Because I still had swelling, I started the day with cooling. Otherwise I took it easy, but carefully did some things in the house, such as emptying the dishwasher (without really bending over). The blueness is also less today, on the left side I notice that it is starting to spread a bit and that it is becoming a bit yellow.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Day 5 (09-07-24)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Today I didn't cool. Also, I washed my hair for the first time. I held my head back a bit more while washing.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Day 6 (10-07-24)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Some of my patches were very loose and I carefully removed them. There is still a little swelling visible and the blue\/colored spots are almost gone. There are also still crusts visible. I put on some make-up for the first time (not on or around my eyes).<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Day 7 \u2013 1 week after treatment (11-07-24)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Today the stitches were removed. There are still crusts present. Furthermore I notice some eyelash loss. Also I still notice some moisture\/swelling which is also visible.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Day 14 \u2013 2 weeks after treatment (18-07-24)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

After about 2 weeks my scabs were almost gone and I used make-up for the first time. It still feels dull\/numb on the eyelashes and eyelid. Furthermore, rubbing my eyes does not feel nice (yet). So I am still careful with this (also because there are still minimal scabs) The scar is still a bit red and thick, but not very visible.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

5.5 weeks after surgery (13-08-24)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The scar is no longer thick, but still a bit redder. My feeling is coming back more and more. During this period I went on holiday. I always took SPF with me in my bag for my scars and almost always wore my sunglasses.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n

2 months after surgery<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I am very happy with the result. I still notice a small thickening at the end of the scar, which is normal for recovery. My eyelids and eyelashes feel like they did before. I am very happy with my open and fresh look. I look less tired and I feel less heaviness. Furthermore, I get a lot of compliments about how beautiful and natural the result has become. Everything went well for me in the process. I recommend it to everyone!<\/p>\n
