I’m asking everyone here for some helpㅠ Yesterday I had consultations at three places in Seoul, and I’m debating between Ilmㅇㄹ and Yellㅇㅇ
The photos were taken with the front and rear camera
At Ilmㅇㄹ, they recommended incisional double-eyelid surgery + ptosis correction + upper epicanthoplasty + fat grafting. Director Do.
He was extremely confident. To put it negatively, not humble, arrogant. When I said I wanted it done safely and without side effects, he said side effects (sausage eyes, etc.) had nothing to do with him. He said the chances were lower than getting into an accident while driving.
He recommended an in-out line. And he said that to get the in-out line I wanted, I would need upper epicanthoplasty together with it.
At Yellㅇㅇ, only incisional double-eyelid surgery + fat grafting. They said that because the space above my eyes is narrow, ptosis correction wouldn’t have an effect, and that just doing fat grafting and double-eyelid surgery would make my eyes look more defined, so I shouldn’t do ptosis correction. But another hospital said the space above the eyes and ptosis correction have absolutely nothing to do with each otherㅠ I don’t know what’s right.. They said an in-out line wouldn’t work anyway on my sunken-type eyes, and recommended a semi-out line.
I asked several times about ptosis correction, but they said they hoped I would only get the surgeries I really needed.. Looking at other consultation reviews, it seemed like they generally don’t recommend ptosis correction much.
I have a lot to say about Diㅇㅇ
When I said I wanted it done safely without side effects, the doctor said that what doctors consider side effects and what patients consider side effects are different, and asked what I thought side effects were. When I mentioned sausage eyes, asymmetry, etc., he said those are functional issues. He said, “It’s not like you can’t see, right?”... He said sausage eyes are not a side effect.. and that doctors don’t see them as side effects. I was dumbfounded and crossed them off ㅠ It was Director Choi ㅈㅎ. I also waited almost an hour.. He recommended an in-out line. He said to cross off places that tell you not to do ptosis correction. He recommended choosing non-incisional or incisional surgery + ptosis correction + fat grafting.
I thought I obviously needed ptosis correction, but Yellㅇㅇ said I shouldn’t, and Ilmㅇㄹ said that if I don’t do ptosis correction, I’ll become someone with double eyelids who looks sleepy..
