Current state: I’ve had ptosis correction + in-out double eyelid surgery / It’s been 2 years since my first surgery, but the swelling looks no different from the early period, so I looked into revision surgery / I was curious whether the ptosis correction could be released / I wanted to change to a double-eyelid line that suits my eyes,,
*Sinsa -ㅂㅇㅇㅇ It has a very typical large-clinic atmosphere The age range of the patients was really varied, and it felt more like an ophthalmology clinic than a plastic surgery clinic Even though it’s large, I liked that I didn’t really feel the typical downsides of a large clinic? (e.g., absurdly long waiting times / rushed consultations) The preliminary consultation with the consultant ended really quickly. She briefly listened to what line I wanted and then the consultation started right away The director.. was older, but he spoke informally as soon as he saw me, so I was a little taken aback. Even when I showed him photos of the eyes I wanted, should I say he looked at them a bit half-heartedly? He only glanced at them, then immediately started marking an eye line for me And this place also did a vision test. I wasn’t wearing glasses or contacts, so it felt a little interesting that they did a vision test.. I quietly thought to myself that maybe taking eye photos would have been better than this,, lol The director showed me a lot of surgery review? photos, but based only on the photos I saw, many looked less like people in their 20s-30s and more like our mothers,, that kind of feeling He said the line could be lowered with an incisional method and that I don’t look fierce because of the ptosis correction. He said it seems like my eye-opening strength was weak from the beginning, and that my pupils currently don’t show much. He said if I did canthoplasty or ptosis correction again here, it might look even less pretty, and instead recommended setting the line naturally (the line he made was almost an inline) For postoperative care, there didn’t seem to be anything separate; they just told me to walk and do ice packs diligently, and that was it -ㅈㅇㅈㅇ When I arrived, there were about 3 or 4 people, but the consultation started quickly without waiting The consultant listened to the double-eyelid line I wanted, then said, roughly, this surgical method would be good, and after that I consulted with the director From the director’s view, I have sausage eyes, and he recommended removing a small amount of fat and resetting the line with an incisional method He said my current line is a very high in-out line. He said the line gets higher toward the outer side.. He said an inline would likely have too little effect and recommended a naturally set in-out line He said there’s no need to touch the ptosis correction again. He said I only need to redo the double-eyelid surgery now. The director set the line for me many times, and I felt that he was looking at it sincerely. In between, he also asked again whether I understood. The director’s consultation was much better than the previous hospital But I felt the consultant was a bit unfriendly,, After finishing the consultation with the director, I asked again about things I hadn’t managed to ask, but she answered vaguely. I also asked about things like the number of surgeries and the director’s style (because it’s revision surgery, I was very anxious,,), but she answered that she didn’t really know,, Then I wondered who I’m supposed to ask,, They said they would lower the fat-removal cost if I booked the same day, but since this is revision surgery, I didn’t feel like deciding that day, so I said I wouldn’t,, Then she gave me a specific date and said, please decide by then and contact us~ and that was it,, For postoperative care, I was told they have a swelling laser!
*Apgujeong -ㅇㄹ Were there more than six people? But the consultation also started right away here This was the first place where the consultant looked at the structure of my eyes. First, she asked me to open and close my eyes, then asked what parts I wanted to change in my current eyes and what double-eyelid line I wanted, and then the consultation with the director started The director explained that I have a habit of lifting my eyelids heavily. If I open my eyes without strength, more than 40% of my pupils are covered, and because my double-eyelid line is also that high, they said it looks like sausage eyes They said it’s not that I have a lot of swelling itself. So they recommended surgery to lower the line with an incisional method. Also, because my eyelids are drooping, an upper canthoplasty could have more effect, but they told me to think about canthoplasty and decide They set the line for me so many times. Holding a mirror, they showed me when the in-out line was set thinly, when it was set as a semi-out line, when the double-eyelid fixation was deep, etc.. They explained it in an easy-to-understand way. Whatever I asked, I could feel their professionalism The consultant didn’t just explain the cost and postoperative care and end it; she explained the surgical method again in detail. I liked that she was considerate and said that since it’s revision surgery, I could take enough time to think and come back For postoperative care, I was told they have a swelling laser and a bruise laser? When I left, they gave me both the director’s and the consultant’s business cards and told me to contact them comfortably
Honestly, because it’s revision surgery, I was more concerned about the director’s skill than friendliness. Among the places I visited, I was torn between two until the end, so I considered going for another consultation, but I just decided to get revision surgery at one place, booked a date, and am waiting,, Because of this, all the money I saved little by little while working part-time for a year looks like it’s going to disappear,, but this time, I really want it to succeed
