SMILE Surgery: Makeup After Vision Correction! When Can You Start?

SMILE Surgery: Makeup After Vision Correction! When Can You Start?

Many of you are probably wondering when you can start applying makeup after SMILE surgery or other vision correction procedures.

There are various vision correction surgeries available, such as LASIK, LASEK, New SMILE LASIK, and implantable lenses.

SMILE surgery, in particular, is receiving many inquiries these days!

If you've been curious about beauty care, specifically makeup schedules, after vision correction surgery,

we hope you'll take a look at this information~!

✨ A common question from students and office workers:

‘When can I apply makeup after surgery?’

If you're only applying skin makeup or base makeup,

you can comfortably do so after about 2-3 days.

However, be very careful to avoid the eye area when cleansing.

For eye makeup, it's best to allow for a full recovery period of at least one week.

✨ Why should you wait until after the recovery period for eye makeup?

Many people apply eye makeup for beautiful eyes, but it can irritate the eyes,

and there's a risk of makeup residue getting in or irritation during cleansing.

Therefore, we recommend at least one week of rest after SMILE surgery.

Please be especially careful, as makeup residue or cleansing residue getting into the eye can cause inflammation.

If you're truly unsure, it's best to ask your doctor during your post-operative check-up before proceeding.

✨ Eyelash extensions for beautiful, deep-set eyes

This is a common question from many women, but we recommend waiting a sufficient amount of time before getting eyelash extensions after SMILE surgery.

This is because there can be irritation from the glue used during eyelash extensions

and potential damage from taping!

👍Post-operative personal check-ups and care are absolutely essential!

For satisfactory results, post-operative care is just as important as thorough pre-operative consultation and examination!

Therefore, we recommend regular follow-up visits for check-ups and care based on the specialist's opinion and prescription~!
