I had eye revision surgery with the buried-suture method a few years ago, and because I didn’t get medial epicanthoplasty, it got buried. My eyelids are thin, the distance between my eyes is wide, and I have small, clam-like eyes and sunken eyes. When my skin gets injured, the scar doesn’t go away and tends to remain, so I want to do it again with a non-incisional method or buried-suture method. I went to consultations at several places, but only one place said they could do it again non-incisionally, and it felt like a factory, so I’m holding off. The other 3 places all recommended incision. One place mentioned incision, medial epicanthoplasty, upper epicanthoplasty, and ptosis correction, but I heard canthoplasty and ptosis correction have many side effects, so I’m worried Ptosis correction seemed to show the most side effects... I’m worried whether I should just do medial epicanthoplasty and incision, or also do upper epicanthoplasty, making 3 procedures, or include ptosis correction too. Would it be better to do all 4? Or should I just do medial epicanthoplasty, upper epicanthoplasty, and incision?
