Hello. This is Inique Plastic Surgery.
These days, double eyelid surgery has become widely common because, compared with other types of plastic surgery, it seems to involve less cost and less time.
But after carefully deciding and undergoing surgery, some people find that deeper scars remain after the procedure. As a result, they may not even want to look in the mirror, let alone meet people, and their self-esteem can drop significantly, eventually leading them to decide on revision surgery.
Revision surgery also comes with many concerns, so it may not be easy to decide.
Today, for people in this situation, we want to look at Inique’s unique method for improving double eyelid surgery scars (sunken scars), based on distinctive know-how in eye revision surgery.

At Inique, a revision surgery plan tailored to the cause is prepared.
The symptoms that occur when the double eyelid line is corrected too deeply during surgery are eyelash lifting and sunken scars (scars).
These often occur when the double eyelid is fixed at a high position or when it is directly attached 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 a height difference forms between it and the area above the double eyelid line.
As a result, sunken scars develop and a deep double eyelid is created.
In addition, as the eyelashes are pulled upward, eyelash lifting can also occur.

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, the guideline for double eyelid surgery.
The eyelid has skin folds that follow the movement of the eyes, and the double eyelids of people who have not had surgery can be understood as creases that fold naturally along these skin lines.
In other words, when designing a double eyelid, it should be designed along this natural skin crease so that no surgical trace remains.

The principle of creating a double eyelid is to fix the skin along the double eyelid line to the tarsal plate or surrounding tissues inside.
If fixation is made at point 1 in the illustration, as mentioned earlier, scars from double eyelid surgery or eyelash lifting may occur. If fixation is made at point 3, the double eyelid is more likely to become too loose or come undone.
So, fixing it as in point 2, without creating tension on the skin, is the most natural approach.

Then you may be wondering when it is best to undergo revision surgery, so I will explain briefly.
The time it takes for the scar tissue to heal after surgery is generally about 6 months.
If 6 months have passed since the first surgery, you can make a revision plan after consultation.
However, it is not limited to being possible only after 6 months.
If the side effects are severe and normal daily life is not possible, revision surgery can be performed immediately regardless of the timing. So it is best to visit and consult with a specialist.

So far, we have looked at the causes and solutions for eyelash lifting and double eyelid surgery scars (sunken scars) that require revision double eyelid surgery.
At Inique, where board-certified plastic surgeons are on site, patients are helped achieve a perfect result with know-how recognized through a commendation from the Minister of Health and Welfare, as well as textbook and research paper publications, so that they no longer have to worry about another revision surgery.
So why not return to a confident daily life again through trustworthy Inique?
Then, as if you had been beautiful from the beginning,
this was Inique.
