What causes double eyelid crease laxity?

Hello.

This is Ahn Sungmin, a plastic surgeon at Jamsilsaenae Station.

Beautiful eyes differ not only by race and region, but also by era. They also differ from person to person, depending on who has the surgery.

Therefore, the complaints people have after surgery also vary from person to person.

Among the various possible postoperative complications, let’s take a look at the causes of double eyelid crease laxity and how to correct it again.

Depending on the depth of the crease, it can be classified into two types. The shallower the crease, the more it can feel as if it is loosening, and if one side of the forehead is used more than the other, only one side may appear to loosen, creating asymmetry.

Crease depth issues

All double eyelid creases tend to loosen to some extent for a certain period after surgery.

If the double eyelid becomes excessively shallow or loosens after surgery, the cause is fixation.

If the fixation is placed too low, or if the crease is designed too low, or if the fixation is done loosely, it can cause loosening.

In cases of a shallow crease, insufficient removal of soft tissue or inaccurate fixation may be the cause, and low fixation or loosening of fixation due to hematoma or swelling can also be a cause.

In addition, it is easier for the crease to loosen when the eyelid skin is thick or there is excess soft tissue, and ptosis, a low crease, or significant weight gain can also be causes.

Resistance to the double eyelid crease

An eye in which the double eyelid crease is likely to loosen after surgery means that there is strong resistance to the crease. Eyes with strong resistance include those with thick eyelid skin or excess soft tissue, eyes with ptosis, and eyes of young people with taut skin. Strong resistance can become even more severe due to adhesions if the crease loosens after the first surgery. Therefore, during revision surgery, all adhesions must be released, and fatty tissue or obstructive soft tissue must be prevented from getting caught between the fixation tissues.

Postoperative care to prevent the double eyelid crease from loosening

It is important not to rub your eyes after surgery. It is also common for stitches to come undone because of unconscious rubbing during sleep.

Surgery is the most important factor, but careful postoperative care and attention from the patient are also necessary.

You should take the prescribed medication and be careful to prevent inflammation, and it is important not to trigger inflammation from chemical ingredients through makeup, and so on.

Cold compresses also help minimize bleeding and swelling.
