Is there a recommended diet, cream, vitamin and/or medication that could be taken before and after eyelid surgery to make the healing process efficient and quick?
Answer: Are There Things Than Can Speed Up the Recovery from Eyelid Surgery? Hello! Thank you for your question! The recommendations for the use of these homeopathic medications are surgeon preference. I typically suggest the use of Arnica Montana to decrease swelling and bruising. It is an herbal medication that is propagated from the seeds of an herb. I, as well as my patients, have seen some benefit with the treatment in the postoperative period. Although there is little evidence to its effectiveness, I believe there is some benefit, and no harm. I recommend 4-5 tablets under the tongue 4x/day for 3-5 days prior and 5-7 days after the procedure. Hope that this helps! Best wishes!

Answer: Ice, rest, and arnica The best thing to do after eyelid surgery is to ice the surgical area, I recommend 15 min every hour whenever you can, especially for the first three days. But you don't need to stay up to do icing of course. And also over the counter Arnica is liked by a lot of my patients as a dietary supplement after surgery to decrease bruising and swelling.

Answer: Blepharoplasty Recovery It's not unusual for patients to be worried about recovery times following blepharoplasty surgery. Delayed recovery is almost always related to prolonged swelling and bruising. For this reason, every effort should be made to minimize the potential for these complications.

Answer: Are There Things That Can Speed Up The Recovery After Eyelid Surgery? The best thing you can do is to follow your surgeon's pre- and post-operative care and try not to rush the healing process. Sleep elevated and apply cold compresses to the area as much as possible. Eat a protein-based diet and don't skip meals and take Arnica. Avoid pulling/tugging and scratching the eyes.

Answer: Healing Process Bromalaine and Arnika are 2 great herbal supplements we recommend taking beforehand and after procedure. These can be found at your local vitamin store. Also, head elevation and cold compresses really do make a big difference in how you heal after the procedure.
