I had Blepharoplasty 4 days ago, and need to go back to work next week. I have read everywhere that I'm not supposed to wear any eye make up for 2 - 3 weeks. But if my skin looks sealed and healed by next week, is there any reason I can't wear make up sooner?

Answer: I would consult your surgeon before wearing any makeup so soon after your blepharoplasty. I would consult your surgeon before wearing any makeup so soon after your blepharoplasty. While in theory it should be fine to wear makeup a week after surgery as long as you are extremely careful and gentle with both application and removal (makeup and makeup removers can both irritate newly-healed skin and cause complications if not handled with the utmost care), your surgeon knows your individual case and can advise you best. I hope this helps.

Answer: Makeup after bleph It’s best to follow your surgeon’s instructions because they’ve been tailored for you, rather than getting that information elsewhere. I usually allow my patients to wear concealer starting from the second week after surgery. This is helpful to hide bruising. Just make sure that the applicator is clean so as to minimize the risk of infection.
