Eye Re-Surgery

If I consulted three places and all three are unclear

Even though this is a revision in Gwangju, I can’t travel to Seoul ㄱㄴㅅㄹ,ㅅㄴㄹㅌ,ㅇㅇㅋ I consulted three places, but all three felt like they didn’t fit and were ambiguous... The eye itself is a very mild case of sunken-eye appearance, and although the glabellar area is not narrow, the lateral eye-side gap is very wide, so I think it would look crowded if canthoplasty is done. I had an incisional surgery 7 years ago, but it is almost fully loosened/open now, and only a minimal amount of canthoplasty was done then. I absolutely do not want a high line, and I want a natural in-out outline. As long as it is not perfectly in-line, that level is enough.

ㄱㄴㅅㄹ- Incisional surgery. Not much fat, but there is a lot of sagging skin, so quite a bit has to be removed. Also, a higher line is basically impossible, so keep the line similar to the existing one but remove a lot of skin. Even if canthoplasty looks a little crowded, it seems beneficial. No need for eye-shape correction. The line was marked with a toothpick; it hurt a bit. The line looked okay. Consultation fee: free. Incisional revision double-eyelid + canthoplasty 266

ㅅㅌㄹㅌ- Incisional surgery. Similar to ㄱㄴㄹㅅ in content. It didn’t stress the amount to be removed and said it would only remove a little because there is sagging skin. They said even with canthoplasty it wouldn’t look crowded. Since I said I do not want eye-shape correction, they did not discuss it separately. The line was what I liked best, but among community reviews, all three are similar and there are more negative reviews among them. Consultation fee: 5,000 KRW. Incisional revision double-eyelid + revision canthoplasty 260

ㅇㅇㅋ- Incisional surgery. Consulted most ambiguously. They recommended a line by making the front margin of the eye visible and tried marking it, but it felt vague. I asked first whether they would trim the sagging skin; they said yes but very little would be trimmed, so there would be no big difference. No eye-shape correction needed, and even if canthoplasty was done it would only be about 0.5 mm, so I do not recommend it. Consultation fee: 10,000 KRW (a little pricey). Incisional revision double-eyelid 200. Review discount: 180

If everyone here chooses, which one would you pick?? Actually, I was going to skip canthoplasty because I thought it would not have a big effect, but two places recommended it and one place that did not was ambiguous... The price is naturally higher when canthoplasty is included Not forced to do it for sure among these options, but I still asked once anyway
