I had incisional double eyelid surgery, ptosis correction, and epicanthoplasty 3 years ago, and after living with sausage eyelids, these days I'm looking into revision clinics. I've also been to consultations at four places.
Current condition) - Line height: Considering my eyes have little distance between the eyes and eyebrows, the line is 9.5 mm, so they are sausage eyelids. - Shape: It was designed as an in-out line, but because the line is too high and cannot fold completely, overlapping creases formed at the inner corners, so it is almost an outfold. - Ptosis correction: Maybe the ptosis correction was done a bit excessively, because I continue to feel like I am opening my eyes wide and staring when I open them. When I smile broadly, my eyes do not fold all the way and become triangular. Thankfully, I don't have side effects like arm numbness, severe headaches, or inability to close my eyes.. - Epicanthoplasty: There is a slight scar left, but the presence of the sausage eyelids is so strong that I don't care at all. - Scars: The scar left on the line is a faint white scar, and it is not bumpy or depressed. However, when I close my eyes, I can see a black thread remaining under my left eyelidㅋㅋㅋ I need to have it removed when I get revision surgery. Also, maybe because of fat removal, there is a slight contour irregularity when I close my eyes. The area below the line looks like a mound.
+) After going to revision consultations, it seems that while the line is too high for my eyes, overall they don't evaluate the first surgery itself as a completely botched surgery. At least my eyes open and close well. The reason the line was set high is that at the time, I had no thoughts about double eyelid surgery and received surgery with the line my parents wanted. It may be hard to believe..ㅋㅋㅋ Back then, I had no thoughts about double eyelid surgery. I first refused my parents' recommendation, but after persistent persuasion, I vaguely thought.. ah well, it would be nice if my sleepy-looking impression became clearer~ please just take care of it~ and went into the operating roomㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's really hard for even me to believe;; Like, is this for real.. Because of this.. karma of mine, I suffered emotionally for 3 years^^
Anyway, with revision surgery in March as my goal, I joined this community and am sharing my eye surgery history~ Nice to meet you!
