Can I use a steam eye mask after eyelash extensions?

After eyelash extension, you can use a steam eye mask. The temperature of the eye mask is only 40 degrees, so it will not damage the eyelashes. The steam eye mask uses advanced self-heating temperature control technology to allow the moisture in the air and the iron powder to react chemically inside the eye mask to form a heating element. It is generally used on the eyes to relieve symptoms such as excessive eye fatigue and dryness, and improve eye pain.

No, long-term pressure will deform the eyelashes. They may also break or fall off. It is recommended to sleep on your back without an eye mask as much as possible. If you have just had your eyelashes transplanted, it is recommended not to use a warm eye mask, as it will add burden to the eyelashes. If the eyelashes have been transplanted for a while, you can use a warm eye mask, but it should be appropriate. The principle of eyelash transplantation is that the doctor first removes the healthy hair follicle tissue from the back of the head through microsurgery, and then separates the hair follicle tissue through special methods, and finally transplants the hair follicles to the eyelashes. After the hair follicles survive, they can naturally grow new eyelashes and maintain all the characteristics of the original hair. Since permanent hair transplantation must select autologous hair, the recipient must have a certain amount and density of hair on the back or side of the head (or other parts). Secondly, hair loss should be in a relatively stable period, that is, there is no obvious large amount of hair loss at this stage.
