Generally, you can start wearing makeup about one month after undergoing full-incision double eyelid surgery and eye corner opening procedures. The exact timing depends on the healing progress of the incisions. Typically, by around one month post-surgery, swelling has mostly subsided and the wounds have fully healed, making it safe to apply makeup. However, if the eyes have not completely recovered by the one-month mark, it is generally not recommended to wear makeup, as this may lead to cross-infection.
