What should I eat after double eyelid surgery?

Among modern cosmetic plastic surgeries, double eyelid surgery is the most widely used and safest surgical method. It allows people to easily realize the dream of changing from single eyelids to double eyelids. Therefore, many people with single eyelids are happy to try it. However, since this is a surgical method, absolute postoperative recovery and conditioning are required to achieve the best results. Diet conditioning is the best method. Let’s take a look at what to eat after double eyelid surgery?

1. Drink plenty of water to ensure the balance of water and electrolytes in the body. You can also consume sufficient amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins. After the operation, if the patient has inflammatory symptoms in the eyes, he can choose to consume cold fruits and vegetables, such as winter melon, bananas and watermelon, which can relieve the inflammation to a certain extent.

2. Many people who seek beauty like to eat barbecued, fried, pickled and smoked foods. These irritating foods are very harmful to surgical incisions and also affect the recovery of the eyes. Smoking and drinking are also taboos.

3. After the operation, patients should also avoid spicy and irritating foods as they are prone to allergies, or seafood that may be harmful to the incision.

4. After undergoing double eyelid surgery, patients should consume nutritious foods to ensure a balanced nutrition in the body. It is recommended to consume foods such as animal liver, milk and eggs, but the food must be easily digestible and absorbed to promote the normal function of the intestines.

5. Fresh fruits and vegetables are also very beneficial. They are rich in plant fiber, which is good for preventing constipation after surgery. Vitamin C, carotene and some other essential nutrients also play a good role in wound repair.

6. You can also drink some homemade soups in the afternoon, such as soybean paste soup, assorted vegetable soup, mushroom corn soup, etc., to replenish your energy between meals. Patients can also always keep some chocolate and nuts on hand and eat a little while resting to provide energy for the body.

7. Taking the mineral zinc will accelerate wound healing. Zinc sulfate or zinc gluconate should be supplemented 1-3 times a day, 200-220 mg each time. It is also recommended to supplement 10 micrograms of vitamin D, which is especially beneficial for wound healing for elderly people with low vitamin D levels in their bodies.
