Eyelid surgery > Drooping eyes in double eyelid surgery

Explanation of the symptoms of drooping eyes

Drooping eyes are a structural condition in which the eyelids sag and cover the pupils, regardless of age.

Many people in Korea have drooping eyes,

and they can make the eyes look smaller or tired.

Drooping eyes must be distinguished from ptosis,

and many people mistakenly think their eyelids are drooping

and assume it is ptosis.

Explanation of the need for surgery to address the issue

Drooping eyes can visually make the eyes seem smaller

and give a tired impression,

and over time they can cause discomfort when opening the eyes.

Surgery to correct drooping eyes

can create a natural and clear eye shape

and may help not only with appearance but also with function.

Solutions

Explanation of the partial incision method

The partial incision method is a way to create double eyelids

by making a small incision in the eyelid,

improving drooping eyelids

and making the eyes look clearer.

This method leaves less scarring and has a faster recovery,

and it is effective for improving drooping eyes.

Explanation of the incision method

The incision method involves making a full incision in the eyelid

and removing sagging skin.

It can clearly improve drooping eyelids

and create defined double eyelids.

The incision method may leave scars,

but a more definite corrective effect can be expected.

Explanation of post-surgery care

After surgery, cold compresses and medication are needed

to reduce swelling and bruising.

Be careful not to touch the surgical area often,

and it is important to protect the eyes and shield them from UV rays.

It is advisable to avoid strenuous exercise for a certain period after surgery.

A word from Director Ahn Byung-joon

The key point is to identify the cause and then address it

with double eyelid surgery

Drooping eyes occur when the eyelids structurally sag,

regardless of age or external factors,

and through the partial incision method and incision method,

the sagging can be corrected

and a natural, clear eye shape can be created.

and advanced technical skill.

and the degree of sagging,

create a customized surgical plan for each individual,

perform the surgery safely, and achieve satisfying results.

A Guide to Eye Plastic Surgery - Director Ahn Byung-joon

I have focused exclusively on eye plastic surgery

for 25 years.

Now that I think I know a little about plastic surgery,

I say there is no doctor who is equally good at everything,

including eye, nose, and breast surgery.

For a person to truly understand one field throughout their life,

a huge amount of experience must accumulate over many years.
