Asked By:korean

I had my upper eyelid surgery (also took some extra skin out) on June 28th an stitches out on July 3rd an still have some swelling an heard that green or black tea bags on your eyelids can help reduce swelling so I was wondering if I should try it an if so what are the steps to doing so? Do I put them right on my eyes or need to cover them with something first?
