Read This First if You Want to Avoid Double Eyelid Revision Surgery at Jamsil Station Plastic Surgery Clinic <Written by a Doctor>

Hello.

I’m Lim Jin-young, chief director of

PiA프 Clinic in Jamsil.

“Both eyes look different, and the line

was made too thick..."

“The thickness and height of the line

just didn’t suit me..."

“At first it was fine,

but as time passed the line

gradually loosened..."

After double eyelid surgery, I found that many people

have complaints like these.

In the end, it was not uncommon to see cases

where revision surgery became a consideration.

If you are looking into

Jamsil Station plastic surgery

hoping for a pretty double eyelid line,

you would likely want to avoid a situation

that leads to revision surgery

as much as possible.

To help people in that situation,

I took the time to write this article myself.

‘When you remove the bandages and look in the mirror,

you regret it because it looks different from what you expected.’

‘Soon after, you find yourself

looking into another plastic surgery clinic.’

If you do not want to face such a future,

please invest just 3 minutes

and read this article to the end.

I will tell you the things you must remember

before lying on the operating table.

What you must remember from now on

is ‘ㅈㅎ’. Read This First if You Want to Avoid Double Eyelid Revision Surgery at Jamsil Station Plastic Surgery Clinic <Written by a Doctor>

Above all else, what matters most

in the face is ‘harmony.’

Eyes, eyebrows, ears, nostrils,

the bridge of the nose, lips, and more...

All areas need to blend naturally

so that when other people see you,

they feel things like,

“That person is attractive.”

“That person is pretty.”

The same goes for the double eyelid line

you want.

You need to create a line that does not feel

awkward with your overall impression

and is harmonious.

However, many people often make

this kind of mistake.

“I want a thick double eyelid like

a certain celebrity!”

“My friend had double eyelid surgery and

her impression changed completely.

I want to do that too!”

I fully understand the desire to have

attractive eyes as a doctor practicing now.

But I want to tell you that the request itself

may be wrong.

If you want to create a double eyelid line

that suits you harmoniously,

please remember these two things:

First, understand the three approaches

to double eyelid surgery.

Second, visit a clinic that gives

realistic advice.

I’ll explain each one below.

If you are looking into

Jamsil Station plastic surgery,

this will definitely be helpful,

so please focus a little longer.

First,

three approaches to double eyelid surgery

There are

three approaches to double eyelid surgery.

They are the buried suture method, the incision method,

and the partial incision method.

The approach changes depending on your situation

and the image you want,

and I’ll explain the differences.

Buried suture method

The buried suture method is also called

the non-incision method.

As the name suggests, the skin is not incised,

and a thread is inserted through small openings

to connect the eyelid skin with the muscle

that opens the eyes.

It’s like sewing a button onto clothing

after stitching it in place,

using thread to create the double eyelid line.

The buried suture method is generally better for

people with thin eyelid skin and mild sagging.

That’s because if the eyelid is thick,

the thread’s ability to hold the line can weaken quickly

and the line may loosen.

Of course, if you want a natural look

without obvious surgical signs,

you may consider the buried suture method.

Also, because this method does not involve cutting the tissue,

there tends to be less pain and fewer side effects.

Recovery is also relatively quick, so it may be possible

to have it done on the weekend and return to work on Monday.

Of course, pain and recovery vary from person to person,

so please do not judge too quickly.

Incision method

The incision method is a procedure in which

the eyelid is directly incised.

After the incision, unnecessary fat,

muscle, and stretched skin are removed,

and the double eyelid line is created by directly

suturing the eyelid skin to the muscle

that opens the eye.

The incision method is mainly suitable for people

with thick eyelids or a lot of fat that makes the eyes feel heavy,

because this direct suturing method has strong holding power

for defining the line.

In other words, compared with the buried suture method,

the line is more clearly defined.

However, because the tissue is cut,

scarring may remain,

and a generous downtime of about 2 to 3 weeks is needed.

Partial incision method

The partial incision method combines the advantages

of the incision method and the buried suture method

I just explained.

Instead of incising the entire eyelid,

small incisions are made in 2 to 3 places to remove

unnecessary fat or muscle,

and the eyelid and muscle are connected with thread

to create the double eyelid line.

The partial incision method is generally suitable for people

with slightly thick eyelids or a lot of fat,

and is recommended for those who want the natural look

of the buried suture method and the more defined fixation

of the incision method.

So far, I have briefly explained

the three approaches to double eyelid surgery.

Now I’ll tell you the most important tip

for choosing a Jamsil Station plastic surgery clinic,

and then wrap up the article.

Second, is it a place that gives

realistic advice? Read This First if You Want to Avoid Double Eyelid Revision Surgery at Jamsil Station Plastic Surgery Clinic <Written by a Doctor>

In fact, when choosing a clinic,

the most important thing is one thing.

Check whether they give you realistic advice.

Why is that?

As I mentioned earlier,

harmony is more important than anything else

when it comes to the face.

“Will it really be such a big problem if a double eyelid line

is added to my eyes now?”

You may think of it lightly like that,

but it is not.

A double eyelid that does not harmonize with your face

will only look artificial,

and it can also reduce your natural, inherent charm.

Therefore, rather than simply performing the surgery

exactly as requested,

it is better to visit a clinic that tells you

what approach you need and why,

why the design you want is difficult,

and gives you realistic advice like that.

That way, when you remove the bandages later

and look at your face,

you can expect to smile and feel satisfied.

“Doctor, how do I find a place like that?”

It’s simpler than you might think:

just don’t fall into these 3 traps.

Usually, people choose a clinic based on these three criteria:

somewhere close to home,

somewhere running a promotion,

somewhere with lots of reviews...

Of course, that is still useful information.

But it is closer to information that lacks the essential details.

So instead of deciding based only on those three things,

visit the clinic in person and look closely at how

they carry out the examination.

Check whether they consider everything,

including eyelid thickness and sagging,

the condition of the muscles and fat,

and whether they design a double eyelid line

that is natural for you,

and explain in detail the surgical method needed for it.

It may feel unclear right now,

but after visiting several places,

the moment will come when you understand what I mean.

So I recommend visiting at least 3 places in person

and receiving a thorough examination.

That concludes what I prepared.

I hope this article was very helpful for anyone

concerned about double eyelid surgery or revision surgery.

This has been Lim Jin-young,

chief director of PiA프 Clinic in Jamsil.
