First, my eyes are like this: - I had double eyelid surgery a long time ago, but it came undone, and the skin has drooped more - Sunken eyes - Not a lot of fat, but the skin is rolled inward and drooping. Entropion - The distance between my eyes and eyebrows is average, so if I go with the line I want, it becomes sausage-like - The amount of drooping skin on both upper eyelids is different (On one side, the line is completely buried) - The height of my eyes and eyebrows is slightly different - I open my eyes using my forehead; when I open them wide, I also have some forehead wrinkles
I went to 4 places. At 3 places, they said that if the line is set higher, the distance between the eyes and eyebrows gets closer, so to see an effect they recommend a forehead lift, but that it can also be done later. They recommended a lift together with ptosis correction and upper epicanthoplasty.
At 1 place, they recommended ptosis correction and incisional upper epicanthoplasty. I asked about a forehead lift, and they said I didn’t need it. They said ptosis correction alone would work, but recommended making the line lower than the line I want.
I really wanted the surgery to be simple. I hoped there wouldn’t be a lot of things to do, but... since they ended up recommending a forehead lift after all, I feel like my head is going to explode and I even want to just give up lolㅠㅠ
If I can get some improvement in opening my eyes with my forehead even without a forehead lift, just through ptosis correction or by slightly cutting the upper eyelid skin, I’d like to do the lift later ㅠㅠ
I’m in my late 20s, and people say a lot of people do it these days, but when I look it up, opinions are split: do it later vs. I did it in my 20s and the effect was good.
In conclusion... I want the heavy, stuffy feeling of my eyes to improve. I’m not looking for anything dramatic. My eyes are definitely the type that would look different even with just a thin line.
The line I want is an in-out line... one where the line is clearly visible. I’m thinking of not doing the lift, not being greedy, and lowering the line height a bit. Would it be okay to try it that way?
This weekend I’m going for a consultation at a hospital that’s good at lifts. I booked it impulsively after going around for consultations, and I’m honestly at the point where I’m thinking of going there and begging, “Am I really a case that needs this? Please, please tell me honestly...” ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
