The completion of this operation during outpatient surgery. Below, we will review the important points related to the care before and after eyelid surgery:
- Avoid ibuprofen (Advil), aspirin, and large amounts of vitamin E (note that small amounts of most multivitamins are not dangerous), and all anti-inflammatory products two weeks before surgery because they prevent the blood clotting mechanism, and increase the possibility of bleeding or bruises.
- All patients are required to quit smoking at least two weeks before the blepharoplasty surgery in Iran to allow the body to increase its ability to heal the wounds after the surgery.
- Before the Blepharoplasty procedure in Shiraz, clean the face well using a gentle soap such as Ivory or glycerin soap such as Neutrogena.

- Start eating Arnica Montana five days before surgery.
- On the day of surgery, wear loose clothing that you can wear easily after surgery, for example, shirts and pants with zippers or buttons are a good choice. The cover that you have to wear is not suitable at all.
