After a blepharoplasty procedure, gentle massage can be beneficial in reducing swelling and promoting healing of scars. It is recommended to begin massaging the incision scars with silicone gel for at least 10-14 days, but up to 2-3 months following surgery. Both topical therapies can help hydrate the skin and prevent scarring. It is important to massage the scars gently with the ring finger to avoid putting too much pressure on the delicate eye area. It is recommended to use cool compresses for the first 24 hours after blepharoplasty surgery, applying them to the eyelids every 10-15 minutes for 10-15 minutes After 24 hours, cold compresses are not as effective in reducing swelling. It is important to avoid exposing blepharoplasty scars to direct sunlight by using a good sunscreen of 30 SPF or more to cover the face and eyelid area.
