I had incisional double eyelid surgery 5 years ago

In 2013, I had incisional double eyelid surgery. My eyes were short horizontally, like small clam-shaped eyes, so I still vividly remember being shocked by how swollen my eyes were after surgery. It definitely seemed like double eyelid surgery looks better on people with horizontally longer eyes even when the eyes are very swollen. With my small clam-shaped eyes, getting an 8 mm incisional line made me look really..... like a monster.. I was so stressed about whether to get swelling-reduction injections or not that my cheek fat dropped off. It took about 6 months for the swelling to go down enough that it didn’t look obvious, and it was hard, but after the surgery and once the swelling went down, the inner double eyelids I had before surgery stopped coming undone and the line settled, so I’m satisfied. But even after surgery, it became an inner double eyelid, so I’m considering getting double eyelid surgery one more time to make the line bigger. I think my eyes would look bigger too. The scar isn’t very noticeable because it’s an inner double eyelid.
