The reason eyes may look small is not always the double eyelid line.

If the strength used to open the eyes is weak, the dark iris is not sufficiently exposed, and the skin above the eyes covers them, creating a sleepy or heavy impression.

This case is one in which upper blepharoplasty to organize sagging upper eyelid skin and eye opening correction for ptosis were performed together.

Before surgery, even when the eyes were open, the exposure of the dark iris was limited, and there was a tendency to force the eyes open by using the forehead muscles.

At the 6-month mark, as the strength used to open the eyes stabilized, the range of iris exposure naturally increased.

The important point is that the goal of eye opening correction surgery is not to make the line bigger, but to correct the muscles that open the eyes so that the eyes can open comfortably.

As the skin covering the iris decreased, the eyes appear clearer.

However, they were not pulled up excessively to create a startled impression.

Eye opening correction is not a surgery to “make the eyes bigger”; it is a surgery to “restore them to their normal position.”

Eye opening correction is not simply a procedure that removes skin.

It is a surgery that adjusts the function of the muscles that open the eyes.

So the result begins with function, not the line.

When function stabilizes, the impression also stabilizes

After 6 months, the strength used to open the eyes settles within a natural range.

Overcorrection may look clearer at first, but over time it can create a tired or artificial impression.

Anseongmin Plastic Surgery does not aim to make the eyes overly large.

Eyes that open comfortably and dark irises that are naturally exposed. That is the most stable result of eye opening correction.
