APPROXIMATE DAILY HEALING SCHEDULE

Day 1: You may experience slightly puffy to swollen eyes, heavy lids, light sensitivity and bloodshot pupils. You eyes may feel more swollen than they apprear. Please try to sleep in an elevated position to help reduce swelling at night.

Day 2: Eyes will be swollen and perhaps “crusty” upon waking. The swelling will disappear from being in an upright position and increasing circulation to the area. Avoid heavy lifting, physical exertion and crying.

Day 4: Pigment within the epidermis will begin to flake off in a little stitch looking lines, although some people do not notice the exfoliation at all. Do not scratch/pick!
