One-month review after revision eye surgery

Before <Before surgery><One month post-op><One month post-op> I had surgery with the natural adhesion method last year, and from some point on, when my eyes were swollen in the morning, my double eyelids would come undone and my eyes felt heavy again. This time, I was thinking of revision surgery with incisional double eyelid surgery + ptosis correction, so I had a consultation at ㄷㄹ Plastic Surgery in Gangnam. After the consultation, I went ahead with incisional double eyelid surgery, ptosis correction, epicanthoplasty (to remove the epicanthal fold and open it just slightly), and entropion surgery. I knew swelling lasts a long time with incisional surgery, so I expected it to last longer than I thought, but maybe because I diligently did cold compresses for all 3 days and because of the swelling injection I got the day after surgery, I think the swelling went down faster than expected. Right after surgery and until the stitches were removed, I didn’t have any discomfort. A few days after the stitches were removed, the inner corner area was very itchy, maybe because scar tissue was about to form, but other than that I don’t think I had any discomfort. It’s still only been one month, so there is still some minor swelling and the epicanthoplasty scar is slightly visible, but I think it will fade over time, and it can be covered with makeup, so I’m satisfied.
