Eye Surgery Reviews

I had surgery today, day 1 double-eyelid revision + upper canthoplasty + lateral canthoplasty ...

Just like the title says, I had surgery today haha. I couldn't find detailed stories about lateral canthoplasty in this community So I'm writing this to share information with this community after having the surgery myself. I had eye-shape correction surgery at the ophthalmology department of a secondary hospital in Yongho-dong around August 20 last year, but one side did not form a double eyelid, and the front part on the other side came undone. On top of that, the surgery took nearly 2 hours and 30 minutes. Since I was a high school student, I was planning to have revision surgery after graduating from school. When getting revision surgery, I wanted to become prettier lol. So even though I knew lateral canthoplasty is said to be a surgery people tell you not to do, I really wanted to look prettier, so I researched a lot. But even after researching and going in for consultations, they told me that lateral canthoplasty was not possible because of my orbital bone, and that there would be leftover space and it would look lifted/open. As I wrote earlier, I had a strong desire to become prettier, so I didn't give up and looked into it more lol. Then I found out about the hospital where I had my surgery and went there for a consultation. (The hospital name is Galaxy Plastic Surgery.) At the hospital, when explaining lateral canthoplasty, they said that at other hospitals, lateral canthoplasty manipulates the skin, so it often reattaches, and they recommend lower canthoplasty too, but at their hospital they manipulate the ligament, so it does not reattach. Since they told me lateral canthoplasty was possible for me, I accepted the risk and did it lol. My complex was that my eyes were short horizontally, so I considered epicanthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty, but I thought epicanthoplasty would expose too much of the lacrimal caruncle, so I ended up doing upper canthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty. I will post as many reviews as possible to show how it goes. (The first photo is 10 hours after, and the second is 4 hours after. Also, because of swelling, I couldn't open my eyes all the way.)
