After a neurology consultation yesterday, I got a prescription for an anti-anxiety medication and a sleeping pill that I can take at night. Maybe because I took the medicine, I slept really well last night, and I kept sleeping during the day too, then went to a hospital consultation at 6 o'clock.
It was a hospital known for early revision surgery, and a few days ago I had asked a simple question in a YouTube comment, and they answered it today. Then when I went for the consultation, they recognized that it was me right away.
Question) Hello, I am 2 weeks post-op from revision surgery. I had revision surgery to lower the line with a double-fold incision, but I lowered it too much, so the eyelid skin is drooping over it and my impression looks harsh, almost like I have no double eyelid The hospital that did the surgery says to do eyelid skin excision after 5-6 months, but I don't think that is the right solution.. Can this kind of case also raise the line with early revision surgery?
Answer) SYMPHONY @ [Clinic A] • 3 hours ago Hello~ This is Director [Doctor A]. If you say that you ended up needing eyelid skin excision later, then it can be viewed as a case where you did not need to do a double-fold incision in the first place. That means there was already a lot of excess skin to begin with, and if there is a lot of excess skin, there is no reason to do a double-fold incision. In cases like this, early revision surgery is possible.
__________________________________________________ I went to the consultation because I wanted to know my current condition rather than rush into surgery right away. Fortunately, they said surgery is possible, so that relieved a lot of my worry.. Both the doctor and I judged that rather than forcing it now, it would be better to wait about six months and have the surgery later for a better result.
After looking at my eyes, he said that it was true the line had been set too low, and if more time passes, it will likely cover even more than it does now. He also seemed a little amused, with an expression like he couldn't understand why they had lowered the line this much and done a double-fold incision when there was still enough excess skin.. And because the double-eyelid fixation is also very strong, it seems that this part will need to be loosened later.
I will go to one more consultation on Friday, June 5, and I plan to visit the hospital that performed the surgery next week. I'll leave a review after I go.
