Will full incision double eyelid become narrower over time?
Disease description:
I recently had double eyelid surgery not long ago. The swelling has mostly gone down, and things have basically returned to normal. However, I feel that my double eyelids aren't as wide or as good-looking as they appeared right after the surgery. They seem a bit too narrow. I'd like to ask: will double eyelid creases become progressively narrower over time?

After full incision double eyelid surgery, the width will narrow to some extent, but the specific degree of change depends on the preoperative design and postoperative recovery.
1. Swelling subsidence: In the initial stage after surgery, the double eyelid may appear relatively wide due to swelling in the eyelid area. As the swelling gradually subsides, the width of the double eyelid will naturally become narrower. This is a normal part of the healing process.
2. Surgical design: The width of the full incision double eyelid is customized according to the patient's facial structure and features. For example, if the designed width was 8 millimeters before surgery, it may reduce to approximately 6 millimeters after full recovery. To ensure optimal results and safety, it is recommended to choose a reputable hospital and qualified surgeon for the procedure, and strictly follow the doctor's instructions for postoperative care.
