Eye Re-Surgery@eye-redo

It’s been 5 years since my fourth revision surgery, and I think I’ll need to do it again..

<When I relax and look somewhere else><When I apply slight force><When I relax and look somewhere else><With makeup on><Scar when my eyes are closed>First of all, I had my first double eyelid surgery in 2013. At the time, I went around to several places in Apgujeong for consultations, and chose a place that was inexpensive + all the other clinics said I was a full-incision case, but only this place said partial incision was possible, so I think I had it done for around 1 million won back then. I was young at the time and had gone around after reading reviews, and maybe because I only saw the good results, I didn’t know it could go wrong... I wanted an in-out fold, but the front part got completely swallowed up (maybe because of the Mongolian fold), and that was the line I got. It wasn’t clean, like triangular eyes, and in the back there were two lines.. They said the double line would get better, so I waited, but even after 6 months my eyes still opened with two lines, so I think they fixed it once more (only the back line). This was at the same clinic, and then after only a few months, it felt like the eyelid itself had loosened. Only then did I wonder if, since I was actually a full-incision case but had partial incision, and my skin type is thick, maybe it was a botched surgery, so I asked the clinic that did it again, and after some back and forth, they redid it there with full incision.. From then on, my eyes became really intense-looking, and the line became higher than before. During the surgery, when I opened my eyes, I saw that it had switched from the head doctor to a salaried doctor. I felt so betrayed, but I was young at the time and they were just doing it for me, so I couldn’t say anything. Still, the line itself was cleaner than before, so I thought the swelling would go down and just waited. In the end, I had up to a third revision surgery at the first clinic. But maybe because of my skin texture or thickness, it was just that the line itself was high, and it wasn’t swelling. Still, I just lived with it without paying much attention for 3 years, but then my left eye completely loosened, and the crease formed higher up. It was uncomfortable even at work, and more than aesthetics, it was inconvenient, so I was in a situation where I had to quickly get a 4th surgery. A friend had double eyelid surgery at a local ophthalmology clinic (Gyeonggi-do) and it turned out really well, so I thought I’d just trust word of mouth and go too. Since it was revision surgery, I should have looked into it more carefully.. At that ophthalmology clinic, I had my fourth revision surgery. Full incision + ptosis correction.. But as a result, now my eyes no longer open with two lines, but..... even now, 5 years later, the folds are too thick and the scarring is too severe. This time, whether it costs 5 million won or not, I really want to do it at a place I can trust that specializes in revision surgery, so I’m looking into it.. I don’t really want to do a two-line correction, but would it be possible to slightly lower the line with incision and remove the scar, something like that.. I feel so troubled ㅠㅠ
