Worried About “Sausage Eyes”? A Four-Year Follow-Up Case of Lowering the Double-Eyelid Line to Restore a Natural, Masculine Eye Shape

"I want to get rid of my double eyelids."

"If possible, I would like my eyes to look natural, almost like I have no double eyelids."

"My double-eyelid line is so deep that it makes my expression look intense."

"I often hear that I look overly seductive."

These are concerns we frequently hear during consultations with male patients these days.

In the past, some people preferred prominent and well-defined double eyelids, but recently, far more people want natural, open-looking eyes.

In particular, many patients want long, relaxed-looking eyes like those of Korean male idols, a natural look close to having no double eyelids, and an impression in which the double-eyelid line does not stand out excessively.

This patient also visited An Seong-min Plastic Surgery from overseas.

Because of a previous surgery, the double-eyelid line had been fixed excessively high and deep, making the eyes look heavy and intense.

Above all, the greatest concern was that the patient appeared feminine and burdened rather than having the natural, masculine image they wanted.

Sausage eyes cannot be resolved simply by lowering the double-eyelid line

During consultations, many people say:

"Please lower my double-eyelid line just a little."

"I want to undo my double eyelids."

"Can my existing double-eyelid line be removed?"

However, revision surgery for sausage eyes is not simply a procedure to create a new double-eyelid line.

This is because deep scars and adhesions from the previous surgery remain in place.

If the line is simply lowered without sufficiently releasing these adhesions, the previous line may reappear, multiple double-eyelid folds may develop, or the result may become unstable over time.

Therefore, the most important step is to sufficiently release the existing adhesions and stably restore the eyelid structure.

After that, the most natural height for the double-eyelid line is planned while considering the patient’s skin condition and eye structure.

For a masculine eye shape, naturalness is more important than being dramatic

Male patients do not often want thick and deep double eyelids.

Rather, they are much more likely to want:

• A naturally appearing eye shape

• An open, refreshed impression with eyes that look longer

• Double eyelids that harmonize with the face

• A comfortable look similar to having no double eyelids

Therefore, what matters in revision surgery is not simply how much the double-eyelid line is lowered, but creating an eye shape that looks most natural on the patient’s face.

Four years after surgery

The photos below show the appearance four years after revision surgery.

The previously high and deep double-eyelid line was naturally improved, and the overall impression changed to a much softer, more comfortable masculine eye shape.

With revision surgery, it is even more important that the result remain stable over time than how it looks immediately after surgery.

The fact that a natural and stable result has been maintained even four years later demonstrates that structural correction was properly performed in this case.

An Seong-min Plastic Surgery’s approach

Revision surgery for sausage eyes is not simply a procedure to lower or remove the double-eyelid line.

It is a process of thoroughly analyzing the scars and adhesions caused by the previous surgery, restoring the eyelid structure, and creating a natural eye shape that harmonizes with the patient’s face.

At An Seong-min Plastic Surgery, we place greater importance on creating an eye shape that remains natural and comfortable over time than on creating a fashionable double-eyelid shape.
