Disease description:

I got my eyeliner tattooed two days ago, but my eyes are slightly swollen. I’m not sure if this is normal—people say the swelling usually subsides within two days. However, my eyelids remain red. Could you please tell me how many days the swelling typically lasts after an eyeliner tattoo?

Hello, although eyeliner tattooing (also known as “magnetic eyeliner” or “enhanced eyeliner”) is currently a relatively common cosmetic procedure, proper post-procedure care is essential to preserve optimal aesthetic results. Mild swelling is expected after the procedure and typically lasts about one week. However, the exact duration of swelling varies depending on individual factors; most people experience resolution of swelling within 3–7 days. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
