Hello.

This is Inique, a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, Seoul.

Because the eyes play a major role in shaping the impression of our face,

many people think carefully before deciding to resolve their concerns through surgery.

Also, if the concern is not resolved after surgery, or if another problem occurs,

you will likely look for revision surgery information with even greater caution.

Today, together with Inique, a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, we will take time to go through the most common concerns about eye plastic surgery.

The first is concern about imbalance in aegyo-sal on both sides.

If the size of the aegyo-sal on the left and right is different, how can it be addressed?

At Inique, a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, left-right asymmetry of aegyo-sal can be corrected.

aegyo-sal refers to the thickened muscular part at the end of the orbicularis oculi muscle around the eyes.

Just as the left and right sides of our body are not perfectly symmetrical, aegyo-sal can also differ from side to side. In addition, because there can be differences in how protruded or sunken the eyes are, the aegyo-sal on the side with the more protruding eye is usually larger.

If you are concerned because the left and right aegyo-sal differ significantly, at Inique, a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, volume can be added to the smaller side with fat grafting or fillers to match the size of both sides.

The second is a question about surgery for the line of one eye.

Many people wonder whether it is possible to lower the crease line on only one eye.

It is possible to perform surgery on only one side. However, in general, to address asymmetry, Inique, a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, recommends surgery on both sides.

This is because the surgeon needs to check whether the left and right sides are symmetrical during the operation, and if only one side is operated on, it is difficult to check because there is no point of comparison.

However, if the surgery has been performed too many times, or if the number of surgeries needs to be minimized due to symptoms such as lagophthalmos, surgery may be performed on only one side.

Next is whether revision surgery can improve eyes that have become unnatural in opening after eye surgery.

If opening the eyes feels heavy after surgery, there is a possibility that the eye-opening correction was not done properly or that the double eyelid crease was made too large.

When the double eyelid crease becomes too large, for the muscles that open the eyes, it can act as a load, like lifting a heavy object.

Therefore, if the double eyelid crease is too large, it can be made smaller, or if the strength for opening the eyes is weak, more natural and defined eyes can be created through eye-opening correction.

The last question is at what point revision surgery is appropriate.

If you are considering revision surgery because the double eyelid fixation is too deep, there is generally no major problem with revision surgery after 6 months.

Because the hard tissue has become somewhat softer, if 2 years have passed, it is actually more suitable for revision surgery.

Today, together with Gangnam plastic surgery clinic Inique, we looked into questions related to eye surgery and eye revision surgery.

Together with Inique, which performs procedures while reflecting patients’ concerns about their eyes as much as possible,

I hope you find natural results that do not look artificial and a satisfying appearance.

Then, until now, Inique, as if you had always been beautiful from the start.
