One-week review of sub-brow lift and buried-suture double eyelid surgery

At some point, I thought my eyes were starting to swell. But once I realized that it was actually sagging skin, I cautiously began looking into eye surgery. Still, my age, the burden of surgery, the postoperative progress, and the time it would take to look natural were all on my mind. As my eyes drooped and became smaller, the blocked feeling in my field of vision was an issue, but more than that, my own facial impression became so expressionless and made me look like an angry person, so I became concerned that I was giving people a very bad impression when meeting them. While I was hesitating about where to go, an acquaintance who had already had surgery and was satisfied with the results recommended Tobe Plastic Surgery, so I decided to go there for a consultation. Usually, when I asked people where they had done it or where I should go, I only got vague advice like, “If you go to a few places in Gangnam, just choose one you roughly like,” so because this was a recommended place, I decided to receive a consultation. After the consultation, the reason I chose Tobe without consulting elsewhere was because of Director Kim Do-hoon’s surgical recommendations, which were not forceful. He explained step by step, without excess, exactly what should be done to get a good result, why some things would be better done later rather than now, and among the necessary options, he also considered satisfaction and focused on the surgeries needed for the patient. That gave me trust and the courage to have the surgery. After surgery, I increasingly feel that I made the right decision because the swelling is gradually going down, there is bruising on only one side, and there is almost no pain, so I’m looking forward to how it will look after the stitches are removed one week later. Since I had the buried-suture method, I feel less mentally burdened, and my drooping eyes look a little clearer and my impression feels brighter, so I like that I feel a bit more confident. Yesterday was one week after surgery, so I went to have the stitches removed, and maybe because I did cold and warm compresses for a week, a lot of the swelling went down and the stitches were removed cleanly. There was no pain, and what remains now is bruising, but I think the bruising is not severe. The director explained the surgical situation in detail and also told me what I would look like going forward. I have no discomfort opening and closing my eyes, and I’ve heard a lot from people around me that the surgery was done cleanly, so I feel good. It was a surgery I decided on with half worry and half expectation, but now I spend my days with more anticipation than worry~
