Consultant is met commonly very straightforward ask: I this kind of circumstance still can graft eyelash? Or another customer, who had eyelashes grafted, also developed a sty. Customers will ask: is my eyelash follicle this appearance because of grafting eyelash caused?

How do you give a professional answer?

What is a sty

First, you need to know what a sty is. Malt, weigh again needle eye, hordeolum.

Is the eyelash follicle near the sebaceous glands or eyelid gland acute suppurate inflammation. (I don't want to put the picture of sty, because it will cause discomfort. If you need to see the picture, please find it by Google.)

 

There are two types of styles: internal and external

 

01. Internal hordeolum

It is a blockage of the outlet of the palpebral gland on the eyelid, manifested in the conjunctival surface, causing chronic inflammation, leading to the appearance of granulomatous masses.

Unlike external hordeolum, internal hordeolum are aseptic inflammation without bacterial infection and are characterized by swelling of the eyelids and a foreign body sensation.

The most typical case is that there is no pain, no redness and only a palpable, dynamic mass (tumor) on the eyelid.

The condition that accompanies inflammation is called acute hordeolum.

 

02. External hordeolum

It is the acute suppurate inflammation of the sebaceous glands at the root of lashes, the initial eyelid margin was localized congestion and swelling, scleroma was formed after 2 ~ 3 days, distension pain and tenderness were obvious, scleroma was gradually softened, yellow pustules were formed at the root of eyelashes, and pus was rapidly perforated and drained. In severe cases, there will be chills, fever and other systemic symptoms.

 

The cause of hordeolum and the method of treatment

Causes: Unhygienic use of the eyes is generally caused by the decline of the ability to defend against staphylococcus after staying up late for a long time or the deterioration of physical functions (malnutrition, overwork or diabetes, etc.), the use of dirty handkerchiefs, hand rubbing or wiping of the eyes.

Treatment:

Where the hordeolum is small, it may sometimes be absorbed naturally.

In cases of large hordeolum, artificial injection of adjuvant corticosteroids is required, or surgical removal is performed.

In the case of acute hordeolum, antibiotics are first used to reduce inflammation.  (In older patients, the tumor should also be identified as a malignancy.)

So, the question is: can customers get their eyelashes grafted when their hair follicles are stinging?

Theoretically, it can't, but …Eyelash grafting is required during a sty, depending on the symptoms.

 

If the overall inflammatory response is severe, eyelash grafting is not recommended; If the inflammatory reaction is general and the customer insists on grafting, grafting can also be considered, but the key is that the customer must sign the informed consent to avoid accidents and disputes.

 

So, when a customer has a sty, you can give a professional answer.

It is best to dissuade customers from grafting, as this can increase inflammation and cause problems for customers and stores. However, if the customer insists on grafting eyelashes for special reasons, it is necessary to persuade the customer and sign the informed consent according to the situation.
