Ptosis and Eyelash Lift-Up: No More Stress!

Hello. This is Inique Plastic Surgery Clinic.

Whether for medical reasons or cosmetic reasons, many people undergo double eyelid surgery after a difficult choice and decision, but after surgery, they feel upset because of eyelash lift-up and scars.

Today, for those people, we’re going to look at Inique’s unique method for naturally improving eyelash lift-up and scars.

Shall we take a look?

The symptoms caused when the crease is fixed too deeply during double eyelid surgery are eyelash lift-up and sunken scars (scars).

This often occurs when the double eyelid is fixed at a high position, or when the double eyelid is directly fixed to the tendon of the muscle that opens the eyes.

In such cases, the skin below the double eyelid line is pulled, becoming thinner and creating a height difference from the area above the double eyelid line.

As a result, sunken scars occur and a deep double eyelid is formed.

In addition, as the eyelashes are pulled upward, the eyelash lift-up phenomenon appears as well.

To prevent sunken scars caused by fixation, it is important to fix the double eyelid at a natural position. That is why Inique follows the natural skin crease, which is the guideline for double eyelid surgery.

The eyelid has a skin fold pattern according to eye movement, and the double eyelids seen in people who have not had surgery can be understood as natural folds that form along this skin pattern.

Therefore, when designing a double eyelid, it must be designed along this natural skin crease so that no traces of surgery remain.

The principle of creating a double eyelid is to fix the skin along the double eyelid line to the tarsal plate or surrounding tissue inside.

If it is fixed at point 1 in the figure, as explained earlier, sunken scars or eyelash lift-up may occur, and if it is fixed at point 3, the double eyelid may become too loose or may come undone.

Therefore, as in point 2, the most natural method is to fix it so that there is no tension on the skin.

Then, I think there may be people wondering when it is best to have revision surgery, so I will briefly explain.

The time needed for scar tissue to heal after surgery generally takes about 6 months.

In other words, if 6 months have passed since the first surgery, you can make a revision surgery plan after consultation.

However, it does not necessarily have to be done after 6 months.

If the side effects are severe, or if normal social life is not possible, revision surgery can be performed immediately regardless of timing, so we strongly recommend visiting the clinic and consulting with a specialist.

So far, we have looked at the causes and solutions for eyelash lift-up and sunken scars.
