When a double eyelid line has loosened,

what methods are there to create the double eyelid line again?

Let's take a look.

A double eyelid line is beautiful when it is reasonably clear.

However, when the double eyelid line loosens and becomes blurry,

it looks less refined and can appear like a wrinkle,

so it no longer looks like a beautiful double eyelid.

↑ Example of loose double eyelids ↑

After surgery, it may look good at first, but as time passes, the double eyelid line may become narrower

or loosen, in which case revision surgery is needed to correct it.

In many cases, after the buried-suture method, the double eyelid line loosens and starts to drop.

In such cases, the line is corrected clearly with either full-incision or partial-incision surgery.

What are loose double eyelids?

This refers to cases where the double eyelid line becomes blurry, thinner, or disappears.

When double eyelids loosen, the goal is to restore the original double eyelid line.

If the original double eyelid line is not satisfactory, a new double eyelid line is corrected and created again.

What causes loose double eyelids?

There are several reasons why the double eyelid line loosens. Please refer to the causes below~

☆ When the skin is thick

☆ When there is a lot of preaponeurotic fat

☆ When the orbicularis oculi muscle is thick

☆ When the body constitution does not form scar tissue properly

☆ Lack of experience or skill by the surgeon

☆ Choosing the wrong surgical method

☆ Rubbing the eyes frequently as a habit

However, there are also cases where the orbicularis oculi muscle and fat that interfere with double eyelid formation were not properly removed, or where the scar tissue under the skin, which is an essential condition for double eyelid formation, does not properly form due to constitutional factors.

Correction method for loose double eyelids - full-incision method

If the double eyelid line loosens after an incision method, it can sometimes be corrected with a partial-incision method.

If the goal is to correct both the scar line and the height of the double eyelid line at the same time, full-incision surgery is used.

Correction method for loose double eyelids - partial-incision method

If the line loosens after the buried-suture method, even correcting it again with the buried-suture method carries a high chance of the line loosening again, so the basic principle is to correct it with a partial-incision method.

If the double eyelid line loosens even after a partial-incision method, full-incision surgery is performed to correct it.

Correction method for loose double eyelids - micro fat grafting

If the eyelid has become sunken and the double eyelid line has been pulled upward, causing the double eyelid to loosen, the loose line can be corrected together with the sunken eyelid through micro fat grafting.

However, this applies only when the cause of loosening is solely due to eyelid depression.

The main purpose of the procedure is to correct the sunken eyelid, and correcting the double eyelid line is a secondary goal.

If the double eyelid line does not naturally restore itself even after the eyelid is restored, revision surgery is necessary.

Success requirements for revision double eyelid surgery

Please refer to the following~

  1. For revision double eyelid surgery, above all, the patient must first understand the cause of why the double eyelid surgery went wrong.

It is not easy to undergo revision surgery without recognizing the cause of the problem.

  1. Only when the patient understands the cause and the attending doctor also identifies the cause can the surgery proceed with trust between patient and doctor.

  2. To identify the cause of the failed double eyelid surgery, it is essential to seek a detailed consultation from an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon whenever possible.

You must receive surgery from a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Even revision surgery should not produce an undesired result.

You should check whether the surgeon holds a board-certification in plastic surgery, and otherwise determine whether they are a specialist from another field or just a general physician with only a medical license before proceeding.

There are many clinics whose signs only say plastic surgery, but where non-specialists actually provide treatment.

It is important to distinguish this carefully and avoid surgery from a non-specialist.

There should also be a lot of surgical experience with revision double eyelid surgery.

Even among board-certified plastic surgeons, specialties differ somewhat.

Therefore, if you are considering revision double eyelid surgery, consulting a specialist who focuses on revision double eyelid surgery can lead to better results.

Revision double eyelid surgery is one of the more difficult, high-level procedures among plastic surgeries.

Receiving surgery from a specialist with solid know-how and accumulated experience in revision double eyelid surgery can restore a more beautiful and natural eye shape.

Revision double eyelid surgery should not be taken lightly.

If revision surgery is treated casually, the chance of failing again is very high.

Revision surgery is several times more delicate and difficult than the first surgery, and is one of the highest-difficulty plastic surgeries.

Therefore, it is better to think about revision surgery more carefully and decide on surgery only after thorough consideration.

Surgery based only on vague expectations can lead to poor results again.

The exact cause of the failed double eyelid surgery must be known.

To succeed in revision double eyelid surgery, the first priority is for the patient to understand why the eyes became unattractive after the initial surgery.

To avoid experiencing surgical failure again, through consultation, both the patient and the plastic surgeon must accurately understand why the first surgery went wrong and what mechanism caused it, so that proper revision surgery can be performed based on that understanding.

Only when the patient can clearly understand through consultation why the initial surgery was wrong and through what process the revision double eyelid surgery will be performed can they proceed with trust and achieve good results.​

The surgery time should not be too short.

Double eyelid surgery usually takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour.

However, revision double eyelid surgery with the full-incision method is not a procedure that can be completed in a short amount of time.

If the revision surgery was finished in less than an hour, there is a possibility that something was lacking.

Unlike the first double eyelid surgery, revision double eyelid surgery involves the process of releasing the previously created double eyelid, separating scar tissue, rearranging the tissues, and performing precise layered suturing.

Therefore, the surgery time inevitably becomes longer, and good results come only when every step is carried out according to principle.

If revision double eyelid surgery ends too quickly, it is like a runner not taking the proper course and instead cutting across to reach the finish line faster.

The same applies to revision double eyelid surgery.

Only when every step is completed without omission can better results be achieved.

It is good if the eyes open wider immediately after surgery.

A double eyelid line with large, half-open eyes is called pseudoptosis.

Most revision surgery patients are such cases.

The goal of revision double eyelid surgery is to make the double eyelid line as thin as possible and to help the half-open eyes open more clearly.

If the surgery went smoothly, in most cases the eyes should open clearly as soon as the operation is finished, and that is considered a successful surgery.

If, even after revision double eyelid surgery, the appearance immediately after surgery is not much different from before surgery, it is highly likely to have been a failed operation.

The appearance immediately after revision double eyelid surgery should not look unnatural, because in most cases it will look natural after the swelling goes down later. ​

There should be mild lagophthalmos for a certain period after surgery.

If the eyes can close perfectly right after surgery, that is considered an incorrectly performed operation.

In most revision double eyelid surgery cases, there is not enough excess skin.

When surgery is performed in this state, if the eyes are to close well, the skin has to stretch from somewhere, and in most cases the skin stretches below the incision line.

If that happens, the double eyelid line becomes larger again.

Therefore, revision surgery is properly performed when the eyes temporarily do not close well after surgery.

However, during the adaptation period, the skin above the incision line gradually stretches, and after some time the eyes close naturally.

The duration of lagophthalmos after surgery varies somewhat depending on the degree of ptosis correction and the amount of excess skin.

If there was not enough excess skin, recovery from lagophthalmos is slower; conversely, if there is excess skin, recovery is faster.

The stitches should be removed a little later.

The stitches should be removed later.

Usually, stitches are removed in two stages, on day 4 and day 7, depending on the amount of excess skin.

Unlike the first double eyelid surgery, where all stitches are usually removed around 3 to 4 days after surgery, in revision double eyelid surgery the last stitch is removed around day 7.

If stitches are removed too early after revision double eyelid surgery, the scar may widen and the tissue above the incision may be pulled upward again, resulting in an outcome that is no different from having surgery at all.

Because the suturing in revision surgery is done in a state where tissue is insufficient, the stitches must hold the tissues in place until they settle into their new position.

If the stitches are removed before the tissues have settled, the tissues that have not yet settled may be pulled upward again, leading to a failed surgery.

If the line has loosened after a buried-suture method, a full incision is not necessary,

and the line can be recreated with a partial-incision method.

At our clinic, we create double eyelids using a partial-incision method (Quick Double Eyelid) rather than a pure buried-suture method.

The difference is that the buried-suture method has the drawback of easily loosening,

so we supplement it by performing the procedure with a partial-incision method.

By minimizing the partial incision to about 2 mm,

we have differentiated it from other partial-incision methods.

This is a method that performs surgery with very small incisions of about 2 mm in each area,

so it is natural like the buried-suture method, allows immediate return to daily life,

and usually causes almost no swelling.

Also, there is almost no scar left.

If there is a lot of upper eyelid fat, fat removal is also possible.

With the buried-suture method, if swelling occurs,

there is no pathway for tissue exudate to drain, so people who swell a lot may swell as much as they would with an incision method.

With the partial-incision method, tissue exudate drains directly through the incision openings,

so swelling and bruising are less than with any other method, which is a major advantage.

It also has the advantage of not loosening as easily as the incision method.
