Q. The incision from my first surgery shows the scar too clearlyㅠ Can a revision surgery remove the scar?

Hello. I’m Director Seo Chan-eol of AB Plastic Surgery.

I’ll answer the questions many of you have about eye surgery!

After eye surgery, some people may feel that their eye shape has improved compared to before, but are worried because the surgical scar is noticeable.

Depending on the type of scar, the cause can be identified and improvement may be possible through scar removal surgery.

If the scar is sunken, a method that uses surrounding tissue to make it level can be used. In the case of a raised hypertrophic scar along the double eyelid line, we can consider excising the hypertrophic tissue to reduce the width, or additional procedures such as opening up the inner corner of the eye to relieve skin tension.

In this way, the cause can be analyzed and an appropriate method found to improve it, so consulting with a specialist may be helpful. If you have any other questions, please leave a comment.
