Severe Ptosis # Male Ptosis # 안성민 Plastic Surgery # Male Ptosis in Your 20s # Specializing in Eye Shape Correction

Ptosis varies in degree and can be classified as mild, moderate, or severe depending on how pronounced it is.

As shown in the photo above, it can be assessed according to how much of the dark pupil is exposed.

Normal range: When the eyes are opened naturally, 80-90% of the pupil is visible

Mild ptosis: When the eyes are opened using other muscles (the eyebrows, forehead muscles)

Moderate ptosis: When the eyes are opened naturally and about half of the pupil is covered

Severe ptosis: When the eyes are opened naturally and more than 50% of the pupil is covered

If it falls outside the normal range, it can be improved through eye shape correction surgery.

Men also want bigger eyes

The cause of heavy, sleepy-looking eyes is ptosis

It is natural for someone with small eyes to want bigger eyes. However, in the case of men, since standards of beauty differ from those for women, they tend to prefer clear, crease-free eyes rather than large double eyelids.

Today, we will look at a severe ptosis case in a man in his 20s and examine the progress three months after surgery.

Why do your eyes look weak and sleepy when you open them normally?

If you often hear that you “look sleepy” or “look tired,” ptosis may be the reason.

Heavy and thick upper eyelids that cover the dark pupil, a feeling that opening the eyes is burdensome, and lifting the forehead or eyebrows to open the eyes are typical symptoms of ptosis.

Before and after eye shape correction surgery in a man in his 20s

When ptosis has progressed over a long period of time, lifting the forehead to open the eyes can create forehead wrinkles.

When we look surprised, wrinkles also form on the forehead. In the same way, the eyes can appear chronically strained, as if the forehead is constantly being lifted.

As time passes, fine wrinkles may develop on the forehead, and eye fatigue can be felt easily.

Even in your 20s, the forehead muscles can become developed, and fine wrinkles can turn into deep wrinkles.

Therefore, it is better to correct ptosis as early as possible.

Goals for male double eyelids

1. Create the smallest possible double-eyelid line.

2. It should look as natural as possible.

3. A hidden double eyelid or no double eyelid is preferred.

4. A long, clear eye shape is desired.

Comparison of pupil exposure after eye shape correction surgery

Recovery process after eye shape correction surgery

After suture removal, the major swelling subsides, and minor swelling gradually decreases over 2 to 3 months.

It takes about 6 months to become natural.

There are individual differences.

Surgery time and care

The surgery takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes for both eyes combined.

It is performed under local anesthesia.

For the first 1-2 days after surgery, it is best to rest and avoid overexertion.

After eye shape correction surgery, post-op care such as eye exercises is very important.

For about 2 weeks after surgery, avoid irritation such as rubbing the eyes strongly, and avoid postures that increase intraocular pressure by bending the head down.

It is better to allow about 6 months for the surgical marks to disappear completely

and for the eyes to become natural.
