Eye Surgery Reviews

Posting my 2-month review of full-incision + epicanthoplasty + fat removal~

Hello! I also visited this community a lot from the old days and got a lot of help, and since I posted before-and-after surgery photos too, I thought this might help, so I'm posting a review~ I had it done during the Lunar New Year holiday on February 4, when so many people in Korea were getting plastic surgery, and even the president supposedly did too; it's been just over 2 months. My original eyes were very small, (they're still small now though^^) and I had thin double eyelids that became uneven later in life, but I think they were still passable. ^^v I think it took almost 10 years for me to get the surgery. I think it's definitely more beneficial to do it when you're young. People who want to do it eventually do it anyway^^ The place I went to was a bit expensive, but they took photos from many different angles and analyzed them while looking at them on a large TV screen, so it was a place I really trusted. (For me^^ In this community, it was generally a place people didn't recommend) Before getting on the operating table, the doctor designs it with a marker pen, and although they say the eye shape held that way becomes the actual shape, I think you should imagine it without swelling more than that. My eyes at two months have less swelling than when the line was being set, When I got on the operating table, I was shaking so much that they attached an ECG (? is that right? the thing that counts heart rate..) device to my finger in preparation for any situation, and the nurse held my hand, so it was a bit better. But they didn't play any music, and since the surgery took a little over an hour and a half, I even fell asleep later. Funny after shaking that much, right? I think they gave two anesthesia shots between both eyes, and it was scary, but it didn't hurt. They kept cutting and suturing something, Then suddenly there was a strong pulling sensation, like they were pulling my eyeball out. It didn't hurt, but it felt nasty.. There was that kind of moment, and they said that was fat removal. It felt like there was a rubber sheet attached above my eyeball and they were pulling on it. They pulled it, cut it, and cauterized it with a laser. After that they kept suturing and suturing for a long time,, My Mongolian folds were severe, so I could feel the doctor having a really hard time,, They showed me midway, but after everything was done, they didn't show me a mirror and just put tape on. If I had seen it, I probably would have fainted. I guess the anesthesia lasted for several days. The aching even up to my brow bone continued for a few days. After surgery, they told me not to wash dishes, exercise, or go out. So I kept lying down, but after briefly getting some cold air outside, I could feel the swelling go down. I think it's good to have surgery in the middle of winter. I also ate 20 packets of pumpkin porridge a day, but strangely, rather than the swelling, my bowel movements improved more^^ After resting like that for 10 days, the bruising around my eyes almost disappeared. Before surgery, my eyes didn't form double eyelids well, and even after surgery they caused trouble. Even now I can see they're a little more swollen in the morning. At first the unevenness was really severe, to the point that even the epicanthoplasty looked very different. But as time passed, they really became similar,, After a month and a half, they naturally started to look natural. Oh right.. the epicanthoplasty. I saw this from the beginning, and from the first day it felt exactly like my own eyes. So fascinating, so fascinating~ Later, I even had those stitches removed a day later than the double eyelid stitches. Even though my eyesight is really good, I could only see about 3-4 tiny stitches closely placed inside the epicanthoplasty on each side, but when they removed them, there must have been more than 20. They really used nearly invisible thread. When removing the epicanthoplasty stitches, it stung and hurt for the first time. When you do full-incision, the skin below the double eyelid line loses sensation. For over a month, it felt strange every time I put on makeup, and I still have a little of that feeling near the front of my eyes. Still, it's nice because I got an eyelash-extension effect, to the point that people ask if I put on false eyelashes. Since eyeliner still doesn't suit me, I think more swelling needs to go down. They're not beautiful eyes, but I think the surgery was successful in my own way, so I wrote about my experience. At first, unevenness is really the most upsetting, and for people who go to work, swelling or bruising is worrying, but I think it takes at least two months for people to stop staring. Time is the medicine, so you need to endure it for a while^^ The human mind is fickle,, I was so scared when I did it, but since it didn't hurt at all, I started wanting to do something else too. ^^;; It was long even though there wasn't much content, right? I hope it helps!
