Because of my small double eyelid lines, when I took photos they sometimes looked like monolids, and my eyes looked stuffy, so I was considering surgery. An acquaintance had surgery at Ewa Baek, and even though it was incisional, there was almost no swelling or scarring. So I didn’t go for consultations at other clinics; I visited Ewa Baek and made a same-day reservation. During the consultation, I first told them the areas I wanted improved, and the director told me what was possible. I decided on surgery because I liked the line they showed me in advance, saying this much would be possible.
On the day of surgery, I was a little worried about non-sedation anesthesia, but thanks to the warm nurse and doctor, it ended quickly without as much difficulty as I expected. (It felt like it took about 30 minutes.) I lay down briefly in the recovery room and then was discharged right away! Even on the same day, I didn’t swell much, and I was so satisfied with the line that for a moment I thought I wished the swelling wouldn’t go down haha Starting the next day, it took about 2-3 weeks for all the bruising to disappear. (In my case, the bruising was a bit heavier than in other patients.) But there was almost no swelling, so from the day I was allowed to wear makeup, I could cover it lightly and go out without any problem.
It has now been 2 months since surgery, and even people around me don’t know I had surgery unless I tell them first. There is no scar even when I close my eyes, and although the line is bigger, it isn’t puffy like a sausage, so it turned out very natural. I had also been very worried that the epicanthoplasty might make my impression look too sharp or leave scars, but without changing my impression, my eyes look just slightly more open and refreshed, so I think I’m glad I did it ..! There is a scar that only I can see when I look closely, and it remains to a degree that I think it won’t be visible as time passes!
