In the post-epidemic era, people in Taiwan wear masks all the time, and eye surgery has become an important part of the public's attention. In a society where the middle and lower faces are tightly wrapped, eyes are an important first impression for outsiders.

As a result, many people began to inquire about medical aesthetic maintenance operations such as double eyelids and radio waves for lifting the corners of the eyes, or myopia lasers that can get rid of heavy glasses.

It is best to have an interval of 3-6 months between eye bags and other operations

In fact, there is no conflict between various eye surgery and myopia laser, because myopia laser is aimed at treating the cornea, while eye plastic surgery is aimed at the tissues around the eyes, such as bags under the eyes, double eyelids, Opening the eyes, etc., but it is recommended that the surgery should be performed at an interval of 3-6 months, and other operations should be performed after the wound is stable to avoid infection or aggravate discomfort, and reduce excessive use of the eyes after the operation and follow the doctor's instructions for post-operative maintenance.

Most people will also choose to make an appointment for surgery before the consecutive holidays, and use the consecutive holidays to recuperate their bodies, reducing the occurrence of overwork or affecting wound repair after surgery.

The second most worrying items for the public are injection-based medical aesthetic surgery and maintenance-type laser, which are popular in Taiwan. Injectable medical aesthetics (such as hyaluronic acid to fill depressions, lifting relaxation, and Botox to reduce dynamic lines such as crow's feet), due to the short recovery period, Generally, mild swelling and discomfort on the face can be repaired in about 7 days, so you can consult a doctor to discuss the operation at an interval of about 1 month from myopia laser.

Post-operative maintenance to reduce excessive eye use

Maintenance-type laser refers to the well-known electro-acoustic wave lift, which uses different heating principles to tighten the skin and promote collagen hyperplasia.

Because there is no swelling problem compared with open surgery, it is also possible to evaluate myopia laser surgery after 1 week, but it is necessary to strengthen moisturizing after electrosonic surgery, and care must be taken to prevent skin care products from flowing into the eyes after myopia surgery and causing postoperative infection.

In addition to myopia laser, there are also many cosmetology services that conflict with eye medical aesthetic surgery recently. For example, services such as fog eyebrows, eyeliner tattoos, and eyelash extensions are now popular. People can save a lot of time and trouble for makeup, and the price is also relatively medical. The cost of surgery is low, so most of them prefer semi-permanent make-up.

However, the above semi-permanent make-up service suggests that it is better to wait for the double eyelid surgery to subside the swelling, because eye surgery such as double eyelid has a great impact on the proportion of the face, and it is easy to cause the original semi-permanent make-up to be unsuitable for the postoperative facial features and require additional adjustments. Refer to the plastic surgeon's professional advice and plan before the operation to reduce unnecessary expenses.
