Revisional Eye Surgery: You Need to Know ‘This’ to Succeed!

Hello. This is Inique.

Eye surgery is

one of the most commonly chosen

procedures among plastic surgeries.

The reason is that, compared to other surgeries,

the recovery process is relatively quick,

and even a small change can make a big difference

in your impression and

overall look.

Among them, double eyelid surgery is

highly preferred by many people

because it opens up

a heavy-looking eye shape,

making the eyes appear clearer and more open.

However, there are often cases where

the satisfaction with the surgical result is low,

or where the double eyelid line loosens over time,

causing asymmetry.

In addition, if the line is too high,

or if double eyelid surgery is performed without

considering the shape of your eyes, muscle strength,

or the thickness of the subcutaneous fat in the eyelids,

side effects such as difficulty fully closing the eyes

may occur, leading some people to consider revision surgery.

The types of cases that require revisional eye surgery

differ for each patient, but the most common ones include cases where the line is too high,

cases of so-called sausage eyes where the tissue swelling has not

subsided even after time has passed following surgery,

cases of multiple eyelid creases,

and cases where the double eyelid has come undone.

So today,

we will introduce the solutions from Inique, a clinic specializing in eye surgery,

for these representative problems.

First, the number one cause of revisional eye surgery,

so-called sausage double eyelids,

can occur when a double eyelid line is created too high,

beyond the height that is appropriate for the patient’s eyes.

Second, it can happen when double eyelid surgery is performed

without correcting ptosis.

Lastly, it can happen in cases where there is

naturally insufficient fat above the eyes.

When sausage eyes form due to an excessively high double eyelid line,

a natural revisional eye surgery must be performed

by lowering the double eyelid height again

and minimizing scarring.

And when ptosis has not been corrected,

ptosis can be corrected through eye-opening correction surgery,

allowing the double eyelid line to settle naturally

and creating a smaller, more natural-looking crease.

Lastly,

when there is insufficient fat above the eyes,

volume can be added above the eyes with fat

or fillers to improve sunken upper eyelids.

However, because eyelid skin is thin,

if too much fat is added, it may protrude,

so it is important to have the procedure done

by a specialist with proven expertise.

The timing of revisional eye surgery is usually recommended

after at least about 6 months,

when the tissue has stabilized after surgery.

In urgent cases where social life is impossible

due to the cosmetic concern,

revisional eye surgery may also be performed

soon after the initial surgery.

For successful revisional eye surgery,

it is very important to meet a board-certified plastic surgeon

with both surgical experience and expertise who can consider

multiple factors such as individual skin thickness,

the degree of sagging,

the strength of the eyelid-opening muscles,

and the amount of fat.
