Around 2018, because of ptosis, and since this hospital was located in my neighborhood, I had a consultation with the manager and got surgery the next day. What actually made me choose this hospital was also the influence of YouTube. The doctor here runs a YouTube channel. The manager said that because he himself is a man, he wanted a thin hidden double eyelid line, so we talked with the manager about making the line thin, saying it would be made so it wouldn’t show, and looked in the mirror together, things like that. But just before the surgery, they drew the line again, and it was completely different from what the manager and I had discussed the day before. They drew a very thick, greasy-looking line. Feeling anxious, I asked Doctor Yoon again whether they were really doing a hidden double eyelid, and he said something like, a hidden double eyelid is made when the line goes inward and sinks in.
When the surgery was ending and I was about to leave the operating table for the recovery room, I didn’t order this, but I remember the doctor suddenly saying after the surgery, “I made you look like an idol.”
For about 2 years after the surgery, I couldn’t look up or glance sideways at all. Even though the fixation was very strong and I had Mueller muscle symptoms, Doctor Yoon did not answer anything about the Mueller muscle at all, and only kept repeating that it was not “overcorrection,” saying that if time passed it would be fine and it was supposed to be like that, so don’t worry, but on the day I went back in the third year, when I heard the answer, “Just wait 10 years,” I was speechless. If I close my eyes now, the incision indentation scar is severe...
Even if we ignore the fact that my eyes were turned into a fish-like face, I’m still dealing with headaches, forehead pulling, and the symptom where if I move my eyes to look to the sides, they feel so tight that I can’t look. Thanks to all that, I’ve been having a hard time. On YouTube, he was being evaluated as an honest doctor by YouTube commenters, which is really amusing.
This post is all over the place, so to summarize in 3 lines:
1. I developed Mueller muscle symptoms and overcorrection symptoms (no improvement for 4 years)
2. During the 3 years I kept visiting Doctor Yoon, I was told to just wait for time to pass and it would be fine, and then I got the amusing answer, “Just wait 10 years. Please understand.”
3. I’m the only one here with fish-face eyes, writing this kind of post.
