the doctor made an incision to drain it on the inside and I am not sure if they did that on the outside of my eyelid as well. But they used a cauterization tool on both sides of my eyelid. Should I be applying neosporin to the outside of my eyelid to prevent scaring or should I use a burn ointment like aquaphor? Can I apply ice to reduce swelling? Any advise is greatly appreciated.
I got my upper Blepharoplasty surgery 2 weeks ago and the swelling is still there. My incision on the left eye is a lot higher than my right eye. Will it be even or be very noticeable after healing ? And since Its still swollen should I put ice pack on it?
I am 5 days out of an upper/lower blepharoplasty and full face fat transfer. I am very swollen in my cheeks and my eyes are black/blue and yellow. I thought the swelling would start to decrease by now, but my face is still pretty huge. Can I still do ice? Can I do a warm rice pack? Both would soothe and feel great, I think... not sure if either would harm or hurt.
Hello; I had my upper eyelids done Wednesday (8/8/14) morning. I'm seeing daily improvement with swelling & bruising. I used ice packs almost 24/7 for first 48 hours & on & off since then. At what point should I switch to warm compresses, or do I even need to continue ice and/or warm compresses? Also using Arnicare Gel on bruises and Refresh Lacri-Lube on stitches. Thanks Here's my photos from today, Saturday 8/9/14.
