Will the thread-embedded bumps disappear on their own?

It is girls’ nature to love beauty, and as cosmetic surgery technology becomes more and more sophisticated. Many girls have joined the ranks of micro-plastic surgery. Small surgeries such as double eyelid surgery, eye bag removal, and canthus opening are very common around us. When doing double eyelid surgery, some people will use the buried thread method, but they are still worried that the bumps caused by the buried thread will not disappear. So will the thread-embedded bumps disappear on their own? What are the advantages, disadvantages and precautions of surgery?

In the early postoperative period, there may be bruises around the eyes, and some may even have cyanosis. Swelling will be obvious within 2 to 3 days, and the swelling will disappear within 5 to 6 days, and the bruises will gradually turn into light yellow. You can use ice packs for 24 hours after surgery to help reduce swelling. Ten days after the operation, the swelling basically disappeared and the double eyelid lines became smooth but not very natural.

Precautions

Preoperative precautions

(1) Understand the overall condition of the patient. The patient should be in good general condition, with no cold, diarrhea, fever, etc. Whether there is a history of drug allergy or whether the patient has a scar-prone constitution. Any history of hypertension, heart disease, or diabetes? What medications do you usually take orally? Consider surgery 1 week after stopping anticoagulants.

(2) Women should not undergo surgery during menstruation.

(3) Patients with larger abscesses on the face, around the eyelids, or on the trunk are not suitable for surgery.

(4) Check blood, urine and stool routinely.

(5) After the operation, apply antibiotic eye ointment and cover the eye with gauze for one day. Remove the gauze on the second day and practice opening the eyes.

(6) Nylon thread is the best choice for thread embedding. Because the buried thread has to be repeatedly passed through the subcutaneous tissue and tarsal plate, it is easy to be injured and broken by the needle tip. This resulted in failure of the operation, and the silk thread was easily cut because it was strong and slippery than silk thread. If you choose non-round needle buried suture surgery for double eyelid. There is less bleeding and the chance of thread breakage is greatly reduced.

(7) The tightness of the knots on both sides should be basically the same, so that the appearance of the double eyelids can be naturally symmetrical.

Postoperative precautions

1. Ensure the surgical site is clean;

2. Try to avoid getting the surgical area wet within 7 days after surgery;

3. Avoid eating spicy foods such as chili peppers;

4. Avoid smoking and drinking;

5. Strictly follow the doctor's instructions on taking medication and going for follow-up visits.

6. Pay attention to strengthening the exercise of eye muscles.

7. Pay attention to moisturizing and softening the eyelid tissue.

Advantages of thread embedding

1. The buried suture method of double eyelid surgery is simple, quick, and non-invasive. There will only be slight swelling and bruising after the surgery. The recovery is fast and it takes two weeks to one month to return to normal. After the surgery, there will be no trace of double eyelids and they will be natural and generous.

2. The buried suture method of double eyelid surgery is safe and reliable, with a short operation time and almost zero pain throughout the entire process. Because the buried suture method of double eyelid surgery increases the contact area between the skin and the tarsal tissue, and only produces a suture knot buried deep under the skin, it ensures the reliability of the surgery and improves the success rate of the surgery.

Disadvantages of thread embedding

The upper eyelid fold is easy to become shallower and narrower; if the case is not selected properly or the technique is not mastered well, the upper eyelid fold is easy to disappear; the knot is easy to loosen, resulting in surgical failure; the knot is buried too shallowly and is easy to be exposed or form a small cyst; the case selection range is narrower than the incision method.

If the upper eyelid is slightly swollen and the patient insists on the buried thread technique, a small incision can be made at the outer 1/3 of the upper eyelid fold to remove the orbital fat.
