If You’re Considering Eyelid Revision Surgery

Hello, this is Ainic.

Many people choose eye plastic surgery

for a sharper and more defined look,

but sometimes a less-than-satisfactory result

can lead to revision surgery.

In such cases, the cost and emotional burden can be significant,

so careful decision-making and thorough aftercare are necessary.

Even so, unavoidable cases do arise,

such as when functional problems occur,

and repeated revision surgeries place a greater strain on the body,

making even more careful choices necessary.

Today, let’s look at eyelid revision surgery, its causes,

and the proper solutions with Ainic.

Among eyelid revision surgeries, one of the most common cases

is when scars remain after double eyelid surgery.

Today, we’ll take a closer look at what causes this kind of case,

and what treatment method should be used depending on the cause.

Scarring after double eyelid surgery,

the most common examples are eyelash lifting and depressed scars.

The reason eyelash lifting and depressed scars occur

is that the double eyelid line is fixed too deeply during surgery.

In most cases, this happens when the double eyelid is fixed too high,

or when it is directly fixed to the tendon of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle,

which is the muscle that opens the eyes.

When this happens, the skin below the double eyelid line

is pulled and becomes thinner,

resulting in a height difference between the area below and above the crease.

Because of this, a deep double eyelid crease is formed,

leading to depressed scarring, and as the eyelashes are pulled upward,

eyelash lifting occurs as well.

So, from here on, let’s look at the methods used for eyelid revision surgery.

The first is finding the exact fixation point

for the double eyelid line.

To prevent depressed scarring,

it is important to fix the double eyelid at a natural position.

To find that natural position,

it is important to create the line along the unique skin texture

called Natural Skin Crease.

As the eye moves, skin texture forms on the eyelid,

and the crease naturally folds along this texture,

creating the double eyelid.

Likewise, during double eyelid surgery,

the design should also follow the skin texture

so that no surgical trace remains

and a natural-looking line can be created.

The second is adjusting the depth of the double eyelid.

Once the exact position is found, adjusting an appropriate depth

is important for a natural-looking double eyelid.

The basic principle of a double eyelid is to fix the skin along the crease

to the inner tarsal plate or surrounding tissue.

At this time, if the fixation point is set too high,

depressed scarring or eyelash lifting can occur,

and if the fixation point is set too low,

the double eyelid may become too loose or come undone.

Therefore, it is very important to adjust it properly

so that no tension is placed on the skin.

So far, we have briefly looked at the causes

and principles behind the side effects of double eyelid surgery.

Eye revision surgery is usually possible after 6 months,

but depending on the severity of the patient’s condition,

it may be possible right away,

so for those who are experiencing discomfort

that interferes with daily life,

it is safest to visit a clinic and receive an accurate diagnosis.
