After studying ptosis correction + double eyelid surgery methods, side effects, and so on for 3 months, I went around to 9 clinics for consultations, narrowed my list down again and again, had a second consultation at the clinic I finally chose, and now I’m going to write a review 1 week after surgery. I’m seriously ridiculously scared of things, so from the day before surgery I was shaking like a leaf, trembling like crazy until I fell asleep. Since my surgery was scheduled around lunchtime in the afternoon, I went to the clinic feeling like a cow being dragged to the slaughterhouse. They said the surgery would be done under sedation + local anesthesia, so I thought I’d be operated on while conscious, but since I’d never had surgery or even an endoscopy in my life lol, it turned out to be anesthesia where I was conscious but not aware of anything. I did have the surgery without even knowing when I fell asleep, but I don’t know when the anesthesia kicked in lolololol While I was lying on the operating table shaking, I got an IV and felt like I was about to pass out. The doctor came in and said a few things, and after that I had no memory. When I came to, they were doing the fat removal, and it hurt so much I thought I was going to die.. Apparently fat removal hurts even with anesthesia. I seriously thought the anesthesia had worn off and almost passed out again.. After that I went to the recovery room for a while and then roughly made it home. The swelling went down faster than I expected and there was no bleeding, but when I looked at my eyes I thought, “Wow.. my plastic surgery is screwed” lol. I thought it was ruined. Around day 4, I started thinking, hmm, maybe it might be okay? And now at 1 week, it turned out really naturally and well. Exactly the natural look I wanted. But human desire really has no end, does it. When the director said, “How about raising it about 1 mm more so the outer corner line of the eye shows just a little?” I regret not listening to that, but still, I’m satisfied. People around me say it turned out really naturally and well hehe. I’ll leave another review after 1 month.

3 or 4 years ago, I had incisional double-eyelid surgery and ptosis correction. I wanted an in-out line, but the director said if we did an in-out line, the line would become thin easily, so he suggested taking it slightly into a semi-out…

They emphasized eye correction, and instead of making a thick double-eyelid line, they said to make the eyes bigger with eye correction. I asked them to make the line as thick as possible, but now, one year later, the double eyelid is…
