In general, it is not recommended to eat lamb shortly after undergoing double eyelid surgery. It is better to wait until the wound has healed properly after the procedure before consuming it in moderation.
Lamb is a heat-inducing food. Consuming it after double eyelid surgery may increase internal body heat and easily trigger an inflammatory response at the surgical site. Inflammation can cause redness, increased pain, and prolong the healing time. Lamb is a heat-inducing food.

Some individuals may have an allergic reaction to lamb. The body is particularly sensitive after surgery, and allergic reactions may lead to symptoms such as skin itching and swelling, which not only affect the healing of the eyelids but also increase the patient's discomfort. Allergic reactions may also interfere with the immune system and negatively impact wound healing.
During the recovery period after double eyelid surgery, dietary intake should be strictly controlled, with a preference for light and easily digestible foods. It is advisable to consume more fruits rich in vitamins, such as apples, lemons, and kiwifruits, as well as vegetables containing vitamin C, such as tomatoes, as these foods can aid wound healing.
