Revision buried double eyelid + ptosis correction + lateral/lower canthoplasty, almost two months in

In 2019, I had surgery after being introduced by someone I knew, but the buried sutures came undone, so I looked into another hospital and had surgery again. There were a lot of reviews saying revision surgery is done by incision, but the doctor here said my eyes could definitely be done with the buried method. But as my line came undone, my eyes had no strength, and even when I opened them with effort, the line would not stay, so I wondered if I needed an incision. But they said that as the double eyelid came undone, the muscle used to open the eyes had loosened too ㅠㅠ In the end, I got ptosis correction together with it... Until about 2 weeks after surgery, opening my eyes felt a little awkward, but now it seems to be settling in without awkwardness..? I also got the canthoplasty done together, and compared with my previous eyes, they came out clearly more defined, so I like it ㅜㅜ Before, even after surgery, they still had a kind of dull look, but now these are the eyes I wanted to get through surgery. The swelling has all gone down too, so now I think I just need to watch the progress well and make sure it does not come undone again.

One thing to note is that when the swelling was severe, the two sides looked a bit different. There was also a little scar tissue near the inner corner area, so I was really worried they would become uneven, but after about a month that also balanced out.. So relieved. End of my revision eye surgery review.. Everyone, do not just blindly go somewhere because your friend works there; I hope you look into hospitals carefully before going! I had it done at a plastic surgery clinic.
