How to quickly reduce swelling after medical beauty treatment

For the sake of beauty, many little fairies have undergone medical beauty surgery, but after undergoing micro surgery, their wounds are swollen and they dare not go out to see anyone. It's very sad. The recovery period after medical art is a agonizing process, and even in the absence of infection after surgery, it takes about a week for sterile wounds to heal and recover. How to quickly get through the recovery period? Today, I will share with you several methods for quickly reducing swelling after medical aesthetics. Why does it swell after medical art? During the surgical process, damage to peripheral tissue can produce a large amount of necrotic material, causing macrophages to aggregate and release pro-inflammatory cytokines. The protective inflammatory response in the human body is an important component of the innate immune system after injury, and is a necessary step to promote wound repair and functional reconstruction. However, the inflammatory response can cause disturbances in the microcirculation system. Secondly, due to loose tissues, abundant blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, the degree of edema in the medical beauty and plastic surgery site may worsen. Therefore, many medical professionals may experience postoperative complications such as edema, pain, and inflammation. Moreover, edema and bruising not only directly affect the surgical outcome, but also cause swelling and pain in the wound, affect wound healing, and affect the patient's mood. So, how to quickly reduce swelling after medical aesthetics?

2. How to quickly reduce swelling after medical beauty

1. Cold and hot compress

Cold compress: Applicable situation: within 48 hours after surgery

Common methods: ice packs to reduce swelling, cold towels to reduce swelling

It should be noted that 1-2 days after surgery is the time when the subcutaneous capillaries of the wound are "active". At this time, you can take out ice packs (or plastic bags sealed with milk, etc.) that have been frozen in the refrigerator, apply them through gauze wrapped around the wound, make the capillaries shrink, reduce blood flow, alleviate local congestion, and even relieve pain.

Time should also be controlled, ice packs can be applied for about 15-20 minutes each time, and repeated every 1-2 hours!

Hot compress: Applicable situation: 72 hours after surgery

Common method: Heat towel to reduce swelling

After 3 days, there may be bruising, be careful, it is time to change the heat compress! By using temperature to accelerate blood circulation and promote nutrient supply to the surgical site, the speed of swelling disappearance will be doubled! Soak the towel in a hot water basin, take it out and wring it dry. The water temperature should not be too high or wet the wound. Apply for about half an hour each time, and change it every 4-5 minutes. When changing, observe the skin color, 3-4 times a day.

For eliminating postoperative swelling, both cold and hot compresses are important, and even more direct and effective than taking medication.

2. Medication for reducing swelling

Taking anti-inflammatory drugs and applying anti-inflammatory drugs

After medical beauty surgery, in order to prevent infection and avoid severe swelling, it is generally recommended to take anti-inflammatory drugs for a period of time to accelerate the reduction of swelling. But be sure to take the medication according to the doctor's prescription, and remember to take the medication on your own!

Low molecular weight heparin sodium products can be applied to the corresponding area for anti-inflammatory drugs. For example, "Qizheng" low-molecular-weight heparin sodium gel can increase local vascular permeability and improve local blood circulation through the anticoagulant effect of low-molecular-weight heparin, thus producing anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, swelling and stasis reducing effects. It can also prevent the generation of scars or weaken existing scars in the later stage of injury.

The above is an introduction to how to quickly reduce swelling after medical aesthetics. We hope everyone can have a correct view of themselves during the postoperative recovery period, maintain a calm attitude, and pay attention to the above points to effectively accelerate swelling reduction and recover as soon as possible.
