Is hospitalization required for double eyelid surgery?

Generally, double eyelid surgery refers to blepharoplasty, which does not require hospitalization. Blepharoplasty involves creating 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, swelling, and pain may occur. Detailed analysis is as follows:

Blepharoplasty is typically an outpatient procedure, with relatively short operation time and simple techniques, and relatively low risks during and after the surgery. After the surgery, patients generally only need to stay at the hospital for a period of observation. Once the doctor confirms there are no obvious abnormalities, they can go home to rest. However, in a few special cases, such as patients in poor physical condition, those with underlying diseases, or those undergoing more complex procedures, hospitalization for observation may be required to allow better postoperative care and monitoring by medical staff.

It is recommended to visit a formal hospital and undergo the procedure under the guidance of qualified and experienced physicians to ensure the safety and reliability of the surgery. Postoperatively, it is important to keep the surgical site clean and dry, avoid getting it wet, and prevent infection.
