Two weeks ago, I had double eyelid surgery together with lateral lower canthoplasty and under-eye fat repositioning. When I smile, the lower front part of my left eye wrinkles and lifts up, so it looks strange. Is this because of the lower canthoplasty, or because of the under-eye fat repositioning? The clinic says it’s because the swelling is different on both sides and that we should wait a bit and check the progress, but I’m so anxious that it might be a side effect Will it really get better with time? Also, I don’t know if the nerve under my eye was damaged, but I can’t feel sensation all the way down to my cheek. Is this also something that is temporarily normal for everyone?
비가우진 I think it might be an under-eye fat repositioning issue
피리어드 There are many cases where wrinkles get worse after under-eye fat repositioning
kyeong01 [@비가우진] Could it be a side effect?
kyeong01 [@피리어드] Even after the swelling goes down, will it stay the same..
지워주 Because of the under-eye fat repositioning
은시기비 When you do under-eye fat repositioning, the epicanthal fold moves downward and the under-eye shape lifts, making the eyes look fox-like. Since you just had surgery and the tissue was cut open, the tissue is hardened, clumped together, and contracted right now. It will return with time.

Eye Side Effects@eye-sideeffectApr 18 Does lagophthalmos mean the eye doesn't close at all?
Does it mean that no matter what kind of force you put into the eye, it doesn't close at all? I'm confused whether I have lagophthalmos right now. There are times when my eye doesn't close, but if I put force into it, it does close.
