I had double eyelid surgery because I wanted to make the asymmetry in my eyelid crease more even on both sides! My eyes weren’t extremely severe, but on one side the crease formed in multiple layers like a double-folded eyelid, and the line was a little higher than the other side, so it was subtly stressful every time I put on makeup.
I wanted a look that was elegant and pretty, but not too flashy and not too plain either, so after comparing reviews and going to consultations at several places, I got natural adhesion double eyelid surgery plus outer and lower canthoplasty together at Dress Plastic Surgery.
While consulting, we adjusted the line several times, and it ended up looking the most similar to the feeling I had in mind, so I decided on this place. I also asked about all sorts of things I was curious about, and the explanations were good, so I think I felt more at ease than I expected.
Right after surgery, the swelling and bruising were not too severe either. For the first few days there was a little extra swelling in the morning, and as time passed it gradually went down naturally. I had seen a lot of people say that if you add canthoplasty, recovery takes a long time, but mine was faster than expected, and after the stitches came out, the swelling felt like it settled even more quickly.
Now I can wear makeup and contact lenses with absolutely no discomfort lol What I’m happiest about is that the uneven crease line has been neatly corrected! The messy part that used to look like a double fold is gone too, and the symmetry between both sides is good, so makeup has become much easier. Before, when drawing eyeliner, it took a long time to make both sides match, but now that stress is almost gone. Because I also had outer/lower canthoplasty, my eyes look much clearer than before and the cramped feeling has improved a lot. Especially in photos, my eyes look much sharper than before, and personally that’s the part I’m most satisfied with. I had worried a lot at first because I saw many cases where people were unhappy with the line after double eyelid surgery or had to get revision surgery because it loosened, but now the line is holding up stably and it’s close to the feeling I wanted, so I’m satisfied. For people like me who are worried about uneven eyelid lines, I think the most important thing is to get consultations at several places and decide on the one that fits your eyes best.
