Magnesium reduces bruising post-surgery
We explored the impact of magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) wet dressings on bruising and swelling following blepharoplasty, a common eyelid surgery. In our study, fifty-eight patients were evenly split between two treatments: one side received a magnesium sulfate solution, while the other was cooled with ice packs. This setup allowed us to compare the effectiveness of these two methods objectively.
Over the recovery period, we observed that the eyelid swelling was similar in both groups initially but notably reduced over time. However, by the fifth day after surgery, we found that those treated with the magnesium solution experienced significantly less swelling compared to the cooling method. Additionally, bruising—measured by both area and incidence—was also lower in the magnesium group, highlighting its effectiveness.
Interestingly, a significant majority of patients preferred the magnesium treatment over ice cooling, with many appreciating the convenience and results of the wet dressing. This suggests that magnesium sulfate is not only effective in reducing bruising and swelling but is also a patient-favored option for recovery after eyelid surgery.

Helps with edema! The top form of magnesium! Taking 2 tablets at bedtime significantly reduces swelling by the morning, and the bruises beneath my eyes have lightened. I highly recommend it! Entering 0954 without gaps gives a discount of up to 10%.

Bruising disappears

After starting magnesium, my body felt back to normal. I used to suffer from morning "bruising" and involuntary muscle cramps after lifting but these have vanished since I take magnesium tablets before bed. It’s a must-have for anyone serious about powerlifting—don’t wait to try it!

Doctor's Best High Absorption Magnesium has truly made a difference for me. At 70, and still active in Judo, I experienced insomnia and health issues, leading me to try magnesium. Initially, the citrate form improved my sleep but affected bowel movements. Switching to Doctor's Best, my insomnia returned, but my digestion normalised. Over two months, all my previous issues—bruises on my fingers and palms, red splotches on my arms, and facial sensitivity—have vanished. Now, I experience no bruises, and my skin feels much better.

No more bruises
I ordered this for my mother, and she has been delighted! At 56, she needs to take care of her health. Within a month, her test results improved, her heart pain ceased, and her legs stopped showing cyanotic bruises that did not hurt. Now, for two weeks, no new bruises have appeared. Waiting for my order!

Improved sleep noted
Magnesium is crucial for everyone and affects both health and appearance. Although the pills are large and drying, which made them difficult to swallow, they improved my general well-being, enhanced my sleep, and reduced the bruises under my eyes significantly.
