How long does eyelid surgery last?

Extend the effect of the result

• Follow your surgeon's instructions
  Your surgeon will ask you to attend follow-up appointments, avoid strenuous activities and keep the area around the operated site clean. This helps you prevent complications and creates better conditions for the wound to heal as well as possible.
• Top up on fluids and nutrition
  Good hydration and a balanced diet help the skin stay healthy and resilient. Drink plenty of water and eat a diet rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Foods rich in vitamin C, vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids are particularly good for extending the results.
• Use sun protection
  Use a sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every day, even on cloudy days. Reapply regularly if you spend longer periods outdoors. Wearing sunglasses and a hat or cap gives you extra protection against the sun's UV rays.
• Rest your eyes
  Let your eyes rest, especially during the first period after your eyelid surgery. Avoid activities that strain the eyes, such as reading for long stretches, using digital screens or driving. Letting your eyes rest reduces swelling and helps them heal.
• Get enough sleep
  Aim for 7–9 hours of sleep a night to give your body time to recover. Sleep with your head elevated for the first few days after surgery to reduce swelling and promote healing.
