The tissue around the eye is very loose, so some swelling is normal. However, the eyebrow is relatively separate from the delicate eyelid or eyeball area. To minimise swelling, we recommend:
- Cold Compresses: Applying a clean, cold pack regularly on the day of surgery (you will be given advice on this).
- Avoid Heat: Saunas, steam rooms, sunbathing and vigorous exercise are best left for a few days, while your skin heals.
- Gentle Care: Avoid rubbing your eyes or brows for the first week.
