Hello, this is Iunique Plastic Surgery.

In Korea, Seoul is the capital of the Republic of Korea, and as the city where the largest population gathers, people often say there is nothing Seoul lacks.

In particular, the Gangnam area of Seoul has many plastic surgery clinics, and it is also a region that many people from other provinces visit for plastic surgery.

However, living in a flood of information can make it harder than expected to find a place I can truly trust and that is good.

Among those looking into Seoul revision eye surgery, what information should you trust and proceed with?

First, you need to know which part of the eye you want to have revised, and skill and cost must also support that decision.

Above all, in the case of the eyes, results differ by cause depending on an individual's characteristics, so it is best to choose a clinic you can trust and proceed there.

Today, we would like to post about revision surgery methods performed by Iunique Plastic Surgery, which is confident in Seoul revision eye surgery.

The most common types of revision eye surgery include sausage-like double eyelids, eyelash turning upward and scar, triple eyelids, and revision epicanthoplasty.

Among the patients who visit Iunique Plastic Surgery, the number one cause of revision eye surgery is the so-called sausage-like double eyelid.

A double eyelid line that is thick and puffy, making the eyes look unnatural, is commonly referred to as a "sausage" eyelid. The causes of sausage-like double eyelids are not limited to surgical failure; there are various other causes as well.

For example, an excessively high double eyelid line, ptosis not being corrected, or insufficient fat above the eyes can be considered. Through a preoperative consultation, we sufficiently identify the cause and perform revision eye surgery suited to the patient's condition.

A sausage-like eyelid is a side effect that occurs differently depending on individual characteristics, such as skin condition, the natural folds of the eye, and the degree of ptosis, so the revision method differs according to the cause.

Second, how do eyelash turning upward and scars occur?

They often occur when the double eyelid is fixed too high or when the double eyelid is directly fixed to the tendon of the muscle that opens the eye.

In such cases, the skin below the double eyelid line is pulled, becoming thinner and creating a height difference with the area above the line. As a result, depressed scarring occurs and an unnaturally deep double eyelid is formed.

At this time, the eyelashes are lifted along with it, so the eyelash turning upward phenomenon can also occur. Therefore, adjusting the depth of the double eyelid is very important.

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

Because of this, fixing it so that it does not create tension on the skin is the most natural method.

If it is fixed too deeply, depressed scars and eyelash turning upward can occur, and if it is fixed too shallowly, the double eyelid may become too loose and open, so to prevent depressed scars caused by fixation, it is important to find the most natural fixation point and proceed accordingly. This must be supported by the doctor's extensive surgical experience and accurate analysis of the patient.

Third, how can triple eyelids be naturally corrected?

A triple eyelid refers to an unintended fold forming above the double eyelid.

The main causes are a double eyelid that has opened up, insufficient soft tissue fat above the eyes, and adhesions caused by surgery.

If the double eyelid has opened up, the fixation point of the double eyelid may have come loose or become lax, leading to multiple folds. At Iunique Plastic Surgery, we use the Smooth Incision Method, available only at Iunique, to refix the double eyelid so it does not open again.

Also, if there is insufficient soft tissue fat above the eyes, the triple eyelid can be addressed by increasing volume through fat grafting above the eyes.

However, since the eyelid skin is thin, injected fat may appear puffy, so it is important to strictly limit the amount injected at one time.

If a triple eyelid occurs due to adhesions caused by surgery, we perform adhesion release surgery unique to Iunique to separate the adhered area and prevent recurrence by lowering and inserting fat and muscle.

At this time, if ptosis is present, eyelid correction can be performed together.

Lastly, in the case of revision epicanthoplasty, a person may decide on Seoul revision eye surgery when the amount of lacrimal caruncle exposure is too much after epicanthoplasty or when they want to improve the still-congested appearance despite having undergone surgery.

At Iunique Plastic Surgery, there is epicanthoplasty reconstruction, a surgery that restores the area where the lacrimal caruncle is excessively exposed to create a natural inner eye corner, and mini revision epicanthoplasty, which can refine the shape through fine excision when the inner eye corner still looks round and congested despite epicanthoplasty.

Today, we looked at the types that require revision eye surgery and the methods for Seoul revision eye surgery.

Revision eye surgery is generally possible after 6 months, when the hard scar tissue has softened, but in cases where symptoms are severe and normal social life is impossible, Seoul revision eye surgery is performed regardless of timing.
