What are the precautions for under-eye fat removal (liposuction)?
Disease description:
My under-eye bags are particularly prominent, and my friends commented today that I look much older. After consulting with a doctor, I was told that I could undergo eyelid fat removal surgery. I would like to know what precautions should be taken for this procedure?

Dr. Li Fengyong
Precautions for eyelid fat removal: Avoid the procedure during menstruation or breastfeeding. Refrain from smoking and drinking alcohol, as well as taking anti-inflammatory medications, one week prior to surgery. After surgery, avoid strenuous exercise, which may cause wound dehiscence. Maintain proper cleanliness around the eyes and avoid contact with water too early to prevent infection. Additionally, protect the area from sun exposure and avoid excessive ultraviolet radiation, as this may lead to hyperpigmentation.
