It’s an incisional double eyelid from 20 years ago, and it was extremely sausage-like, with a bit of lagophthalmos, but after about 20 years it sagged and got better.. But there’s still a bit of puffiness left, and my eyes look intense, so I’m also consulting about lateral canthoplasty.. I also have entropion, but plastic surgery entropion correction is seriously so expensive???(Every place I went to had the same price?) But after having one botched result, I don’t want to do it just anywhere
All consultations were designated with the head director.
1. ㄱㄴ Did not recommend ptosis correction, double-line excision, or lateral canthoplasty -Only this doctor noticed first that I had some lagophthalmos -Because the consultant pressured me to book the same day, and the price difference for same-day booking was too big, I ended up not doing it
2. ㅇㅎㅅ Showed me by shaping the line 1 mm excision. Said this much would not greatly affect the current slight lagophthalmos Recommended ptosis correction and lateral/lower canthoplasty -For now, all the review photos are my style, so I put down a deposit (because I have to do it during peak season)
3. ㄹㄹ Recommended lowering it to an inner-double-eyelid level, ptosis correction, and lateral canthoplasty -I was most drawn to it because all the review photos were my style, but there were a few concerning reviews.. and the lateral canthoplasty stitches are removed after 2 weeks, so I couldn’t book (work..)
4. ㅌㅇㅅ Explained while measuring with a ruler 1 mm excision or double-line excision (said we should decide in the operating room), and said the front part needs double-line excision Ptosis correction, fat repositioning Said lateral canthoplasty can be done later too, so we should think about it again later -It was the most expensive if entropion correction was included…
5. ㅁㅅㄹㅇ I went in really nervous, but the doctor was very kind Said that compared with other people who come to him, my fixation and sausage size are not very deep, everything is ambiguous and okay, and asked if that’s why I also just lived with it for 20 years Said that if he operates, since it’s not a very severe case, there will not be a dramatic change from now, and it needs to be done while trying not to lower the double eyelid too much Recommended ptosis correction and releasing the fixation -To be honest, before going, I was most drawn to this place, but now it feels ambiguous.. The surgery date I wanted is already full too My eyes do need ptosis correction, but here they said it would be incisional, so I’m anxious about what if something goes wrong
6. ㅇㄴㅋ They kindly explained while shaping the line, Ptosis correction, lowering the line, slight double-line excision at the front part, and fat repositioning For lateral canthoplasty, they asked why I would do it when my eyes are already big, and said that even without it, after ptosis correction my eyes will look softer So I asked whether the line would be okay if I only do ptosis correction, and they said even if it gets smaller, the puffy sausage-like feeling would remain the same..
I still have consultations left at ㄴㅅㅎ, ㅇㅇㅋ, ㅁㅊㅍ, and ㅍㅇㅌ ㅍㅇㅌ’s date is too late, so I’ll probably have to decide before going, and I went to ㅁㅇㄹ but just left..
Has anyone here done it at ㅇㅎㅅ? The cancellation deadline is coming up soon… I can cancel the lateral/lower canthoplasty and proceed, right…? With ㅁㅅㄹㅇ, they said the ptosis correction is incisional, so I’m a bit anxious.. If the fixation is ambiguous, I really don’t think I’ll see a dramatic effect with this doctor.. Still, when I look at swelling reviews and things like that, I’m very drawn to it because I have to go to work.. I’m also really drawn to ㅇㄴㅋ right now, but I hadn’t thought about double-line excision at the front part and fat repositioning, so I’m torn
For now ptosis correction is confirmed, but do you think incision is okay? I’m also wondering if I already need to be considering the possibility of it failing
