Why didn't I get double-eyelid surgery sooner?

#Surgical progress..? Current status!! I had eyes close to monolids, and this time I finally had the double-eyelid surgery I had been deliberating over for a long time. It turned out so naturally that people I met for the first time said they had no idea until I told them. #Reason for surgery I had spent years being comforted with comments that monolids were my unique charm and that I was pretty without surgery. Then one day I got so tired of hearing that my eyes were distinctive that I went for a double-eyelid consultation, and the staff were so kind that I had surgery the following week. Honestly, I probably would not have considered it if people had simply said I was pretty, but being told I was pretty in a distinctive way sounded like “you are outside the standard of beauty, but it’s okay,” and it caused me a lot of stress. At that time I was depressed because of severe appearance-related distress, but hearing warm words during the consultation made me feel comforted, and I guess I wanted to live a little differently. #Surgery I had non-incisional double-eyelid surgery with an upper canthoplasty. Since I like a natural look, I asked for a thin in-out crease, and I am very satisfied!! I don't know about anything else, but I want to burn all the album photos from my decades of school days when I never photographed well. I regret not doing it sooner... #What I felt after surgery If you have monolids and dislike having your photos taken because you never photograph well, I recommend consulting about double-eyelid surgery!! But you cannot completely remake your natural bone structure or eye position, so I did not transform into the doe eyes I envied. T_T I envy people with beautiful eyes so much.. People born with thick aegyo-sal and huge round eyes are truly, truly enviable..? But I know I could not become that way even if I were born again, so I am trying not to envy them. #Conclusion So my conclusion is this!! 1. I deliberated, but I should have done it sooner. 2. The surgery turned out so well, and I feel good when taking photos. 3. But drawing lines on a pumpkin does not turn it into a watermelon. There was no major change in person. I am simply me... Thank you for reading, and I hope everyone lives happily with beautiful eyes.
