Let's imagine my chest is the pupil. And my left hand is the eyelid where the eyelashes grow. When this eyelid folds, what it makes is the double eyelid. Ptosis correction is to move the back of the eyelid, the levator palpebrae superioris muscle. What adjust the height of the eyelid skin is the double eyelid surgery, and what adjust the height of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle is the ptosis correction.

Hi everyone. I am the Director of Jayjun Plastic Surgery Park Hyeong Jun, and I am I U Jin. Today, our topic is the difference between ptosis correction and double eyelid surgery. It is ambiguous to explain. It's used like a surgical name, but it seems that it's not a surgical name. However, these days, it's used like a surgical name. That's true.

So I think that the concept that's used like a surgical name these days is widely used as a concept in which ptosis lightly applies on people who do not have ptosis. <The concept of ptosis correction is a surgery in which ptosis correction is lightly applied to people without ptosis> Even our teacher is not that old. Our teacher told us about what ptosis correction actually is.

When I heard the explanation from teachers about ptosis correction, Oh? Isn't it what we had been doing before? In the past, when we talked about the concept of double eyelid surgery, most of the people only knew that the eyes would get bigger or prettier if double eyelids are created. But recently, the details have been subdivided.

In the past, how people felt about double eyelid surgery is that it makes eyes look prettier, bigger and fresher. In order to achieve that purpose, the surgeons that time usually tied the muscles called levator palpebrae superioris muscle which helps open the eyes little by little As people thought that is pretty, things that people used to do have been subdivided very detailly nowadays.

It's same for nose surgery around the 90s. Rhino plasty surgery. If we looked in the past, coffee meant coffee only. Like when we went to the dabang (coffee shop in the past), people would ask would you want an egg or not. There was a generation like that? Yes, there was a generation like that.

I don't know it well too, but from what I've heard... However, if you go to buy a coffee from a large franchise, stuff may ask you how many extra syrups or extra shot do you want. Even a coffee order has become more detailed. As time passes, surgery becomes more detailed and be subdivided too. Therefore, the word 'ptosis correction' appeared, and it became one of the plastic surgeries.

For doing ptosis correction or ptosis surgery, we need to approach to the muscles. Normally, the approach will be done in the double eyelids. Therefore, for people who do not have double eyelids, double eyelids will be made while having the ptosis correction. Although ptosis correction can be done alone, in order to remove the sagging skins, removing it while making a double eyelid would be a method.

In general, I think it's easier for you to understand as you are having ptosis correction while having double eyelid surgery. I will explain it more with my hands. Let's imagine my chest is the pupil. And my left hand is the eyelid where the eyelashes grow. So when we close the eye, it will be like this. If we open the eye, the skin will become bulging like this.

When this eyelid folds, what it makes is the double eyelid. The fingers that are seen, one finger, two fingers, are to adjust the height of the line. Ptosis correction is to move the back of the eyelid, the levator palpebrae superioris muscle. What adjust the height of the eyelid skin is the double eyelid surgery, and what adjust the height of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle is the ptosis correction.

For example, if the patient asks us to raise the height of the double eyelid line, (For example) When we raise the double eyelids lines covered with eyelids, we can raise them little by little. Even when an out-line is made, as it does not move the levator palpebrae superioris muscle, the eyes will not look bigger. However, if the patient asks us to make the eyes bigger in this situation,

= if we do the ptosis correction Then, the back will be moved, right. Then, more pupil will be seen. However, the double eyelids will become smaller. Because the fingers are fixed in 2 fingers, if ptosis correction is done here in one more finger, the double eyelid will be 1 finger smaller.

What is ptosis correction? It is a surgery that moves the levator palpebrae superioris muscle. BUT, it makes the double eyelid lines thinner. What is double eyelid surgery? It moves the eyelids and adjusts the lines. BUT, actually it does not bring any changes to the size of the eyes.

What people always misunderstands surgeries like ptosis correction and ptosis surgery is that they think that if ptosis correction or ptosis surgery is done, the muscles will be stronger. In fact, the muscles will not be stronger. You can think in this way: the mechanism of the muscles itself becomes shorter. If the muscles are tied excessively, the eyes may be unable to be closed.

So, is ptosis correction a surgery to lift the eyelids that cover the eyes? It is a surgery that makes the eyes be opened more largely. It also has similar effect as giving strength to the eyes. The exposed pupil looks larger. Ptosis correction is recommended to the following people.

People whose pupils are being covered
People who look pretty when they open their eyes largely

If it is done excessively, it may give a feeling that you are glaring others fiercely. There are people who are suitable to have this surgery, and also people who are not. For people who have sanpaku eyes or even 'sapaku' eyes, if they have this surgery, their pupils can be exposed more. As this surgery makes your pupils be exposed more, there are people who are suitable and who are not.

So is there any reason for ptosis correction and double eyelid surgery to be divided into two? How different are their effects? For double eyelid surgery, double eyelids are grabbed from the eyes. That's why an extra line appears on the eyes. For ptosis correction, I hold the upper part of the eyes like this, so when the eyes are opened widely, more pupils can be seen, right? This is the effect of ptosis correction.

In the consultation, after I grab the double eyelids with the patients' eyes, I will ask them to try open the eyes comfortably. That is just the effect of double eyelid surgery. After they have opened the eyes comfortably for a while, I will ask them to try to give strength to the eyes. You can think of it as a slight effect of ptosis correction.

If you want your pupils to be exposed more, you need to raise the double eyelid line. However, when we grab the lines comfortably, when we open the eyes comfortably while grabbing the double eyelids, about 2mm of the double eyelid line will be seen. If I ask you to give a little strength to the eyes, it will look like an inner double eyelid.

Therefore, I will ask the patients there how high they want the double eyelid to be. If you want your eyes to look prettier, you need to raise the double eyelid line, right? But for men, they prefer inner double eyelids than high lines.

Then, if you grab the inner double eyelid lines in the extent that they can be seen while raising the eyes through ptosis correction, the eyes will look larger while having an inner double eyelid. So, if you want to lower your double eyelid line for a little bit, ptosis correction might be effective. Right.

Everyone talks about sausage-liked eyes, right? There are some eyes that look sleepy although the double eyelid lines are large, right? For that kind of people, if their lines are normal, it may be the situation in which the line is not high, but as the strength is weak, the double eyelids line may look big because of it.

For that kind of people, there are many cases where the double eyelid line naturally goes in just by ptosis correction. So, in conclusion, double eyelid surgery is literally a surgery that makes double eyelids,

and ptosis correction is a surgery different from double eyelid surgery, in which the levator palpebrae superioris muscles, muscle that open the eyes, are tied, which makes the eyes be able to be opened more largely. See you again next time. Please I have something curious about. Why do you be stiff when you say goodbye after talking interestingly? Stiff

Please say goodbye properly... Politely... As I grew up in a noble family... (Doctor from a noble family)
