Pre-Surgery Preparation

  • Get adequate rest
  • Avoid makeup before surgery to prevent infection or contamination of the wound
  • Do not wear contact lenses before surgery
  • Avoid alcohol, smoking, vitamins, and supplements for 2 weeks prior

Post-Surgery Care for Best Results

How to care for yourself after surgery
  • Apply cold compress with gel packs around the surgical area for 72 hours (avoid warm compress)
  • Sleep with head elevated at 30–45 degrees and use a neck pillow for 2 weeks
  • Avoid exercise for 2 weeks
  • Follow wound care instructions from the physician
  • Keep the wound dry until sutures are removed
  • Avoid hot, polluted, or stuffy environments
  • Avoid fermented foods and spicy foods for 2 weeks
  • Avoid alcohol and smoking for 2 weeks

Wound Care After Surgery

วิธีการทำแผลหลังรับการผ่าตัด
  1. Clean the wound daily with saline solution until sutures are removed
  2. For staple sutures, apply Betadine until staples are removed
  3. For thread sutures, apply ointment for 7–14 days until sutures are removed
  4. For scar-reducing medication, test on the arm crease first. If itching, burning, or rash occurs, remove immediately. If no reaction, apply after suture removal for 6 months to 1 year (except for scalp wounds, which do not require scar medication).

If sutures dissolve and protrude after removal, patients may feel unevenness at the wound site. In such cases, send a photo via LINE to the medical secretary and schedule an appointment for suture removal. Normally, this may occur, but if not bothersome, the sutures will dissolve naturally within 1–2 months.

Frequently Asked Questions about
Eye Bag Surgery

Q: What causes eye bags to swell?

A : 

  • Genetics: Fat pads under the eyes cause puffiness and swelling.
  • Aging: Skin deteriorates with age, causing fat to shift downward, resulting in sagging eye bags.
  • Lifestyle habits: Lack of sleep, frequent eye rubbing, allergies, regular alcohol consumption, etc.

A: Eye bag surgery (removal of eye bags) helps correct dark circles, smooth the under-eye skin, and make the eyes look brighter and younger. After surgery, the under-eye area becomes firm and tight. Results last 5–10 years.

A: Recovery takes about 7 days. The surgical wound begins to dry, and the scar gradually fades and blends with the patient’s skin tone, making it nearly invisible.

A: After surgery, the under-eye area becomes smooth with no fat pads. However, in cases with excessive fat, new eye bags may form again.

A: If performed by a plastic surgeon, the doctor will carefully assess and plan the surgery according to each patient’s eye structure. The skin will not be over-tightened, and stitches will be done meticulously to reduce scarring risk. Once healed, the scar color blends with the patient’s natural skin tone, making it invisible.

A: BLS Surgery Center recommends patients verify doctor credentials and clinic information to ensure surgical safety and reduce risks of complications.

  • Verify clinic standards: Use the clinic name or license number to check via https://hosp.hss.moph.go.th/. If certified by the Ministry of Public Health, the clinic’s name, location, license number, and expiration date will be clearly displayed.
  • Verify doctor information: Use the doctor’s full name to check via the Medical Council of Thailand’s website: https://www.tmc.or.th/ to obtain basic information about the doctor.
