As I got older, I could feel my outer eye corners gradually drooping T_T My eyes originally had a somewhat gentle look, but with age added to that, no matter how heavily I did my makeup, I always looked tired and sleepy... Especially in photos, my eyes often looked smaller and my expression came out vague, so I got into the habit of forcibly drawing my eyeliner upward at the outer corners. It became exhausting to pay that much attention to makeup every day, and I kept wishing I could look more lively even bare-faced.
While looking into clinics, I came across reviews of fox-eye surgery and ended up at [Clinic A]~ At first, I thought it would be a simple procedure that merely lifted the outer corners a little, but during the consultation they approached it more carefully than I expected. The director examined my eye shape and the degree of outer-corner drooping, then explained in front of a mirror which direction and how much of a lift would look natural. I worried that a conspicuous, drastic change might feel burdensome as I get older, but the director raised that point first and suggested adjusting only enough to enliven my impression without overdoing it, which put me at ease.
Rather than simply lifting the outer corners, they considered the direction of my eyes and my overall facial impression to find an angle that suited me. They asked about every concern one by one, and I felt this was the place to do it.
As time passed after surgery, the line at my outer corners became slightly longer and naturally extended outward, and I could feel my entire eye shape becoming much more refined and defined~~ Previously, the outer-corner area looked somewhat flat and droopy, but now that one line makes my whole impression come alive. Since it looks defined without the droopy appearance, I look much more lively even without makeup, and most of all, I no longer look tired, which is what satisfies me most. It does not look excessively upturned at all; it simply looks a little more defined than my original eye shape. People around me say not that I had work done on my eyes, but that I have looked good lately and do not look tired anymore~
