I think I spent about 8 years, from high school until my mid-20s, using double eyelid glue ㅠ.ㅠ Those with a lot of eyelid fat will know this well, but with double eyelid tape, it sticks out at the outer corner of the eye and looks unsightly... If you cake on makeup, it still shows... And if you use double eyelid glue, one layer is not enough, so you end up applying it two or three times over makeup and it clumps. You’ve probably experienced that ㅠ-ㅠ I kept saying I should get double eyelid surgery, but I missed the timing and kept putting it off because I never had time... It was so uncomfortable dating while always using double eyelid glue, so I finally got it done... :3c
First of all, I had sagging skin on my eyes... So it had gotten to the point where even double eyelid glue didn’t work well ㅠㅠ ㅋㅋㅋ Of course, my eyes couldn’t be done with the buried-suture method, so incisional double eyelid surgery...! On top of that, my eye muscles were very strong, my eyelids were heavily drooping... Since my eyes were so heavy, I had medial epicanthoplasty, upper canthoplasty, and a little lower canthoplasty! I also had ptosis correction together ㅎ.ㅎ Since I had a lot of eyelid tissue, they removed fat too... Thanks to sleep anesthesia, when I woke up, the surgery was already over... Apparently I threw a fit saying I wanted to go to the bathroom, but I don’t remember it at all ㅠㅠㅠ
The first thing I felt as soon as I opened my eyes was that opening my eyes was so comfortable + light + they opened wide!!! Even though it was right after surgery... Normally my eyes were so heavy that I used even my eyebrows to open them, but now just putting strength into my eyes made them open wide and lightly ㅠㅠ...!! I did have some bruising, but there was no bleeding at all ㅎㅎ Removing the stitches on day 6 hurt a tiny bit, but I feel so, so relieved now
My friends and everyone around me saw the photos from day one and have been saying the line was set so prettily, and they’re making even more fuss saying they’re curious how it’ll look once the swelling goes down ㅎㅅㅎ!! I feel like I had every eye surgery possible, but compared with that, they said the swelling is on the lower side ㅠㅠ I’m even more curious to see how it looks once the major swelling goes down, so I’m going to take good care of it! The photos are from the day of surgery, day 3, and after stitch removal on day 6! Do you think it turned out well ㅜㅜ
