First, 2 years ago I had natural adhesion double eyelid surgery in an in-out line with ptosis correction, and one side came undone, so I looked into revision surgery. My eyelid skin is on the thicker side.
ㅇㄴㅋ Consultant (before): I already have hidden double eyelids too, and my eye size is large. If it already came undone after natural adhesion, there is a chance it will come undone again. Undoing the double eyelid and setting the line lower might only be possible with incision because of the original double eyelid line. Director: Need ptosis correction on the left. If the front of the eye is fixed, the front line will get a little smaller? That’s what they said. When I asked if I had sunken eyes, they said my eyes are not extremely deep-set. Consultant (after): 250 (non-incisional double eyelid) + 50 (ptosis correction) 3 million won regular price including 2-year A/S aftercare 2.3 million-1.8 million discounted price (if posting a review) Sedation anesthesia, then local anesthesia + surgery time 30-40 minutes
ㅈㅇㅈㅇ As expected, recommended natural adhesion + ptosis correction (but said there is a high chance it will come undone. Same line, fix it the same way. Ended very roughly.) Did not recommend partial incision because of scarring. Surgery time 40 minutes, sedation + local anesthesia 1.42 million won (VAT included): includes aftercare and 1-year A/S period Consultant was ordinary. The doctor seemed like a beginner and lacked detail ㅠㅠ
ㅇㅇㅍ (single-doctor clinic) Director: Because my skin is thick, they said incision would probably look awkward.. Recommended natural adhesion with the same line as before. Of course, they said because my skin is thick, the adhesion could come undone. Consultant: 20-30 minutes design, 30-40 minutes surgery Sedation + local anesthesia 10-20 minutes Aftercare swelling laser Follow-up at 1 month and 6 months, A/S void for 2 years 1.87 million won 1.58 million won (for writing a review on a community / Gangnam Unni) Washing face and showering possible from 48 hours after The consultant was thorough. The director was the only one who did not recommend ptosis correction, and although they seemed busy, they explained as much as possible. It was interesting that they advised against incision. The price was also the cheapest, and I liked that they do the design on the day of surgery.
ㄱㅇㅈ (single-doctor clinic) Director: Recommended incisional double eyelid surgery. With a lower line. (Said my current line is too high.) Showed many review photos. I liked the line they made so!!! much. Consultant: Even with incision, they proved the scar would be less noticeable by showing their own operated eyes. It was really natural. Preoperative consultation (design) one week before. On the day of surgery, surgery after reviewing the design. Sedation anesthesia for 10-15 minutes, then local anesthesia. Time 1 hour-1.5 hours. No aftercare. Suture removal after 5 days. A/S 6 months-1 year. Cost 2.6 million won. <The consultant was thorough and explained while even showing their own eyes. The director also seemed to have conviction, and it was short but impactful. Very trustworthy, showed review photos, and was thorough enough to take photos of my face during the consultation. Among all the lines set so far, I liked this one the most and it was natural, which was good… but the fact that it is incision, and that even with incision there is still a chance it could come undone, bothers me. And because it is incision, the higher price also bothers me…
ㅇㅇㄴㅋ Consultant: Hmm… felt like a typical Gangnam consultant. Showed their own photos and recommended ptosis correction. They also casually mentioned canthoplasty, so I felt uneasy. I eliminated that place right away. Director: Set the line 1 mm higher ???? Suggested partial incision, fat removal, and ptosis correction too. Consultant: Design 20 minutes, surgery 30 minutes, A/S 2 years, swelling laser Private recovery room Regular price 275 230 with review
ㅇㅇㅋㅌ (single-doctor clinic) Director: Very kind! Looked at everything very carefully… and kept explaining what would be good. They said my eyes are right on the borderline where both incisional/non-incisional are possible, and honestly, they are pretty even without doing it, so I should do whatever I want. The good thing about incision is that it is stable. But it looks noticeable and is difficult to restore…. But since I’m young and it only came undone once, they said trying non-incisional again is also worthwhile. They said it is my choice. They said if I want something natural with fast recovery, trying non-incisional again is meaningful. They said they can make the non-incisional fixation firm. So they recommended non-incisional + ptosis correction. Consultant: Sedation anesthesia + local anesthesia A/S 2 years 176 (non-incisional) regular price -> 240 253 (incisional) -> 330 Surgery: change clothes, precautions consultation, design again… They said first design sitting up, second design lying down.
I’m still torn between incisional and non-incisional…. I like ㄱㅇㅈ, ㅇㅇㅍ, and ㅇㅇㅋㅌ the most, but I’m wondering if I should go to more consultations.
If you know any hospitals famous for revision double eyelid surgery, please let me know ㅠㅠ
