I had it done in Apgujeong, and it has been 1 month and 1 week since the surgery. But contrary to what I intended, the double eyelids were made thick, and the epicanthoplasty was done a lot too, so I think the swelling is going down slowly. When I asked the doctor how many millimeters people usually do, they said the usual is 7 or 8 mm, so I asked for that, naturally, but it ended up much bigger than I expected. At first, because it was made so big, honestly I was worried and annoyed, but as time passes, I think it was good that I made it big. Last Tuesday (at the one-month mark, to get a checkup), I went to the hospital, and they said the swelling was almost the same as when they saw me one week after surgery and now... It was complete OTL;; Other people said they got swelling-reduction injections or swelling-reduction massages, so I asked if I should maybe get a little injection too, but they said there is no such thing. ^^; They said if I got an injection, it would actually swell more. lol People around me all say it turned out really well, that my eyes got extremely big, and that once the swelling goes down I'll look really pretty, but we'll only know once it actually goes down. ^^; At least the middle part has gone down a bit, but because it was done as an out-fold, the front and back parts aren't going down, so it's driving me crazy. It's been 1 month and 1 week; if I drink pumpkin juice now, will the swelling go down faster? And should I avoid greasy foods as much as possible? I also had fat removal, but my upper eyelids protrude too much...^^; Please tell me how to reduce swelling quickly after one month has passed. The first photo is pre-surgery + a photo taken on day 12 after surgery with eyeliner on. The second photo is pre-surgery + a photo taken one week after surgery. Ah! What I'm most satisfied with is that the epicanthoplasty turned out so well without any marks. ^^
