What Should Be Considered for a First Double Eyelid Surgery to Reduce the Chances of Revision Surgery?

As SNS and YouTube and other one-person media platforms have become mainstream, we live in an era where people take more care of themselves and pay more attention to their appearance.

In particular, many students who have finished the college entrance exam and have high SNS usage rates often want to improve their appearance through plastic surgery, and even just by looking at the frequency and awareness of the first surgery among these students, eye plastic surgery, usually double eyelid surgery, is often the first procedure they want to undergo.

For a first eye surgery, choosing the right hospital is important. Because of the widespread awareness of double eyelids, many people may think it is a simple procedure. However, double eyelid surgery involves many factors to consider, such as the current condition of the eyes, the distribution of fat around the eyes, and harmony with the facial features, so the surgeon’s extensive clinical experience and expertise are very important.

Chief Director Choi Seung-hyeop of WINK Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station said, "If the first eye surgery goes wrong because it was performed by a hospital and doctor that are not right for me, revision surgery will be needed to correct it. Revision eye surgery is only possible after the tissue has stabilized, usually at least 6 months to 1 year after the first eye surgery," and added, "Revision eye surgery is more difficult than the first surgery, so the cost is higher than the initial eye surgery and recovery may take longer. That is why the hospital and doctor chosen for the first double eyelid surgery are so important."

However, since it is the first procedure, patients may have difficulty finding the ideal shape they want and the surgical method that matches it, so caution is needed.

Chief Director Choi Seung-hyeop of WINK Plastic Surgery advised, "When looking for a hospital that is good at double eyelid surgery, the first thing to focus on is not the double eyelid line that other people have, but the eye shape you want. You should think about whether the double eyelid line you want can be achieved on your own eyes and listen to an opinion through a consultation with a plastic surgery specialist. You should also check whether the doctor at the hospital where you plan to get double eyelid surgery is a plastic surgery specialist and whether they have extensive experience in eye-related procedures. Only then can you reduce the chances of revision eye surgery."
