BEST 11 Questions About Double Eyelid Revision Surgery📝 image 1

Hello. This is Luho Plastic Surgery.

Today, we will organize the overall questions about eye revision surgery

and answer the questions we have been asked most often

about revision surgery

all at once.

Q. Why do people consider revision surgery?

A. There are basically three main reasons people consider revision surgery.

The first is when the original surgery went very wrong,

for example, if the scar is very severe,

if the double eyelid is too large, or if the left and right sides differ greatly,

resulting in severe asymmetry, and so on—cases where the surgery itself was not done properly.

The second is when a long time has passed after surgery and, as part of the aging process, the double eyelid has loosened

or the skin has sagged a lot and the shape has changed significantly.

The third is when there is no major problem with the surgery, but the patient’s taste has changed.

For example, someone who used to prefer a small crease may, after surgery, want a bigger, more striking eye.

Q. Is revision surgery more difficult and more painful?

A. Even if you previously had a simple surgery,

the tissues inside are no longer in a normal state,

so I can say revision surgery is a little more difficult than the first surgery.

Because the tissues are not normal when revision surgery is performed,

some parts may actually hurt less,

so revision surgery is not necessarily more painful!

Q. Is revision surgery more expensive?

A. In general, revision surgery is more expensive than the first surgery.

The situation inside is often very different from what is visible on the outside.

The surgeon’s skill and experience are very important,

and the operation time and other factors naturally take longer as well.

Q. Does swelling last longer after revision surgery?

A. Swelling depends on the type of surgery, not on whether it is revision surgery.

Some people had double eyelid surgery before and the swelling lasted a long time,

and they worry that it may last even longer than before.

If the previous surgery created a double eyelid that was too large,

causing the swelling to last a long time,

then reducing the size of the crease

can actually make the swelling subside much faster than before.

Q. Can revision surgery be done exactly the way I want?

A. If the condition of the eyes and the part the patient wants

match the current eye condition perfectly, then we can create everything the patient wants.

On the other hand, there are many cases where that is not possible, so the eye condition must be carefully considered.

When you consult about revision surgery, it is important to clearly check whether everything you want can really be done.

Satisfaction with surgery is subjective, but the smaller the gap in results, the higher the satisfaction.

If revision surgery is performed while that gap is still not bridged,

even if the surgical outcome is very good, the patient may not be satisfied,

and satisfaction will drop significantly.

Q. How many times can revision surgery be done?

A. There is no exact limit on the number of revision surgeries.

Usually, after revision surgery, if you wait about six months,

you can consider the next revision surgery,

but if you have had surgery three or four times,

the waiting period may need to be longer, such as one year, two years, or three years.

There is no fixed number of revision surgeries, but of course, fewer is better.

Q. Can I have revision surgery at the first hospital?

A. For uncomplicated revision surgery, for example,

if the front part has loosened slightly after surgery

or if there is only a very small asymmetry on the left and right that can be corrected easily,

it is better to have it done at the same hospital where the original surgery was performed.

However, if the previous result was not very good,

or if trust in that hospital has been broken,

then consulting at another place may help you achieve a better result.

Q. Revision surgery vs. first surgery

Are the patients definitely different?

A. Patients coming in for their first surgery often have vague expectations,

whereas those coming for revision surgery often have clearer goals

and have done much more research.

Q. The clearer the goal,

is the satisfaction higher?

A. When you come in for revision surgery, you need to have a clear idea of what you want.

That way, we can precisely discuss what is possible and what is not,

and make a decision.

If you come in with clear goals,

your satisfaction with the surgery will go up much more.

What I want to say to revision surgery patients

BEST 11 Questions About Double Eyelid Revision Surgery📝 image 22

When you come for a revision surgery consultation, you should have a clear idea of what you want,

so that you can fully understand what is possible and what is not

before proceeding with surgery.

Among people who gather information and study a lot before coming,

some focus only on very extreme, badly wrong cases and come in thinking,

“I should never do it this way.”

But those cases are often very exceptional,

and in reality, there are many cases where the cause is something else.

So when you come for a revision surgery consultation, I hope you will keep an open mind,

understand exactly which method is right for you,

and have the courage to decide on that option if it is the right one.

That is how we can say the revision surgery was successful without failure,

so please keep this in mind.

Many people who come for revision surgery consultations are overly worried.

If you consult and have surgery while referring to today’s information,

I think it can become a successful revision surgery.
