I had it done around 2 years ago. Originally I was only going to get epicanthoplasty, but they said my eyes lacked strength, so I needed to get double eyelid surgery together, so I got double eyelid surgery too. Personally, I don't really like double eyelids, so I asked them to make it look as much like an inner double eyelid as possible. But my eyes are the type where double eyelids really don't form easily... The front part came undone too much once, so I had revision surgery...ㅡ0ㅡ My right eye still comes a bit undone... It looks okay if I wear contact lenses, though... And it's hard to open my eyes with force. Tsk. Now my left eye does look a bit like an inner double eyelid sometimes.... My swelling also tends to last a long time... I think the swelling kept going down little by little for the full 2 years..... When I look now at selfies I took before thinking the swelling had gone down, I get startled every time..ㅡㅡ; They say eye surgery gets prettier the more times you do it, and I want to get one more revision, but I don't want the pain again, and it's burdensome in many ways, so I should try to be satisfied with these eyes... Still, I don't regret getting double eyelid surgery. I just assume my eyes are the type that don't respond well to double eyelid surgery. The epicanthoplasty was cut very minimally, so it doesn't really show much. Even with monolids, my eyes weren't on the small side, so after double eyelid surgery plus epicanthoplasty, my eyes became really big. Especially the space between my eyes and eyebrows became extremely narrow.. When I open my eyes really wide, they almost look close together like a Hollywood actor........................ After surgery, when I did compresses, I only used cold compresses. When I searched, there were all kinds of opinions saying to do both cold and warm compresses, or only cold compresses, but I was in so much pain that I just did cold compresses only.... I also applied the ointment well... My eyesight is bad, so every time I went back and forth to the hospital, I wore glasses and sunglasses layered together........ㅡㅡ;;;;; After surgery, I forgot to go straight to the pharmacy, so I went to a pharmacy near my house. I remember they said they didn't sell the medication written on the prescription at the pharmacy near my house, so they gave me a substitute medication.
