Three months after incisional double-eyelid surgery, medial canthoplasty, and ptosis correction—my eyes look clearer lol

I used to hear “Are you sleepy?” all the time, so it feels really great not to hear that these days T_T lol. I had incisional double-eyelid surgery, medial canthoplasty, and ptosis correction. At first, time seemed to pass so slowly, but it has already been three months! Especially compared with last month, everything feels much more natural. At first, my double-eyelid crease looked a little thick, and the inner corners of my eyes looked slightly awkward because of swelling. Now that much of the residual swelling has gone down, the crease seems to have settled in a way that suits my eyes. My eyes were originally a little different in size, so I was always very conscious of the asymmetry whenever I took photos. One eye opened well, while the other looked a little sleepy, so I would unnecessarily strain my eyes in every selfie T_T. But now, even without deliberately widening my eyes, my irises look clear, and my eyes look much more similar in size than before. That is the part I am most satisfied with. I used to check my eye size first even after taking photos, and if one eye looked smaller, I would retake them for no reason. These days I can take pictures comfortably, and my eyes look clearer than before, which I love lol. From the consultation onward, [Clinic A]'s Dr. Hwang carefully assessed my eye condition and designed everything well to match the look I wanted. Thank you!! At first, because of the swelling, the medial canthoplasty looked more open than I expected, so I was a little worried. But after about three months, the shape settled naturally and the previously closed-looking inner corners have opened up a lot. It does not look excessively opened, so I really like how it is now. At first I worried that the inner corners looked awkward, but as time passed, they instead came to blend naturally with my eyes, which is a relief. The incision scars were also a little visible when I closed my eyes at first, but they seem to be gradually fading over time. They have not disappeared completely yet, but they no longer bother me as they did before. Early on, I checked the scars first every time I looked in the mirror with my eyes closed, but these days I just let it be lol. I was concerned about swelling every day at first, but after one month and then two months, I could definitely feel things becoming more natural. At first I wondered when it would ever look natural, but as time passed, it really seemed to change little by little. And people around me have subtly reacted differently too lol. Friends say my eyes seem clearer these days and that my overall impression has changed. But it is not as though they immediately recognize that I had surgery; they simply say my eyes seem somehow clearer, which I like even more. I wanted a natural change rather than an obviously surgical-looking one. Before, when I looked in the mirror in the morning, the first thing I saw was how closed-off and sleepy my eyes looked, and that stressed me out. These days, even when I simply open my eyes comfortably, they look much clearer than before, so I feel different when I look in the mirror~~~~. Applying makeup also seems easier than before. I disliked how closed-off my eyes looked, so I used to draw thick eyeliner and pay a lot of attention to shading around the inner corners. These days, even without doing as much, my eye shape looks neat, which is nice. Another surprisingly big change is that I no longer strain my eyes when taking photos lol. Before, whenever I took a picture, I would unconsciously open my eyes wide and keep checking whether one eye looked smaller. Now I can just take photos naturally, so it is much more comfortable. Since it was my first cosmetic surgery, I was scared before the procedure and worried a lot about what if I regretted doing it. Then after getting it, I worried again about the early swelling lol. If the crease looked thicker than expected, I would get anxious, and I worried that the medial canthoplasty looked too extensive. But looking back now, I think it was good that I simply waited. Especially now that three months have passed, it feels very different from right after surgery. At first, I even wondered whether these were really the eyes I had imagined, but seeing them gradually become more natural over time put me at ease. I do not think all of the residual swelling has gone down yet, so I plan to wait and see whether it becomes even more natural. Still, I am quite satisfied even at this stage.
