I had double eyelid surgery by partial incision on February 4 and got the stitches removed on the 8th. On the 8th, because of the holiday, there was only one nurse at the clinic, maybe she was on duty... So today (the evening of the 11th), the doctor told me to come in to have my double eyelids checked, so I went...
I wanted a thin, natural line like an inner double eyelid, but it seemed too thick, so I told the doctor. I asked if it wasn’t too thick and prominent... Then he said it wasn’t that thick ㅡㅡ; And he said that once all the swelling goes down, it will become thinner than the current line. So I asked, then once all the swelling goes down, will it become an inner double eyelid later? He said my eyes aren’t the kind that will become inner double eyelids... Oh no!! I had hoped they would become inner double eyelids....ㅠㅠ I started feeling really down.
So with a disappointed expression, I said I had asked for them to be thin, and told him that other people said my double eyelids were too thick and looked unnatural. Maybe the doctor felt a bit offended too, because he asked who said that, and whether I was being swayed by what other people said... He said it’s only been barely a week, and asked if I expected them to look natural already. He said I had only been seeing eyes without double eyelids, so now that I see eyes with double eyelids, that’s why they feel that way. He said I need to wait 3 to 4 months for them to become natural, and scolded(?) me, saying what foolish person says things like they’re thick, the swelling won’t go down, or they look unnatural when it’s only been a week..ㅠㅠ
And he told me to wait, so I decided to have hope and wait a little longer... For those who are worrying because of swelling or the line, let’s have hope together and wait. Fighting!! Let’s stay strong!! ^^
