Introduction
In general, a full incision for double eyelids refers to blepharoplasty (creation of the upper eyelid crease). Intravenous infusion is usually not required after blepharoplasty. This procedure involves designing incisions at appropriate positions on the upper eyelids, removing part of the orbicularis oculi muscle, fat tissue, and attaching the eyelid skin to the tarsal plate at the desired height to form a double eyelid crease, thereby creating a double eyelid appearance.

Generally, double eyelid surgery refers to blepharoplasty. Intravenous infusion is usually not required after blepharoplasty. Blepharoplasty involves designing incisions at appropriate positions on the upper eyelids, removing part of the orbicularis oculi muscle, fat tissue, and attaching the eyelid skin to the tarsal plate at the desired height to form a double eyelid crease, thereby creating a double eyelid appearance. The general reference price for blepharoplasty ranges from 1,000 to 6,000 yuan per session. Noticeable improvement is usually seen 1-3 months after surgery, although symptoms such as redness and swelling, and pain may occur. Detailed analysis is as follows:

  

  The surgical procedure of blepharoplasty strictly follows aseptic techniques, resulting in a relatively low risk of postoperative infection. Additionally, the human body has its own immune defense mechanisms that provide natural protection and healing for surgical wounds. Usually, oral antibiotics such as Amoxicillin Capsules, Cefradine Capsules, and Roxithromycin Tablets are sufficient for infection prevention, following the doctor's instructions for proper medication use. This typically effectively prevents infections and promotes wound healing, making intravenous infusion generally unnecessary.

  It is recommended to visit a reputable hospital and undergo the procedure under the guidance of a qualified physician to ensure the safety and reliability of the surgery. Postoperatively, it is important to keep the eyes clean and avoid contact between the surgical wound and contaminated water or other pollutants.
