Middle-Aged Double Eyelid Surgery Must Be Performed After Identifying Individual Features and Needs

Column by Director Kim Jong-myeong of Diva Plastic Surgery

Although aging is a process no one can avoid, the way each person wisely responds to and addresses it differs. Because the method used to resolve stress caused by changes around the eyes, which play a major role in shaping a person's first impression, can lead to different outcomes, people tend to be more cautious. This is because aging around the eyes causes many problems.

Many people understand that eye surgery can produce dramatically different results due to very small and subtle differences, so it must be performed after a personalized diagnosis based on thorough assessment of various factors such as eyelid skin thickness and degree of sagging, amount of fat, the strength of the muscles that open the eyes, the distance between the eyes and eyebrows, the epicanthic fold, and the degree of upward tilt at the outer corners of the eyes. However, it is often overlooked that eyelid correction should be performed only after identifying gender-based needs and characteristics as well, and caution is therefore required because this can affect not only aesthetic satisfaction but also functional satisfaction.

In the past, male cosmetic surgery was not a common case, so there are even more points that require attention. For men, it can be difficult to take a long recovery period because of social life, and it is also hard to cover signs of surgery with makeup or fashion accessories after the procedure.

In addition, needs must also be checked carefully. In the case of men, quite a few patients are unable to explain in detail what they want, which can reduce satisfaction with the result if the shape turns out differently from what they wanted. Therefore, the process of checking in detail the eye shape, surgical method, post-operative care methods and precautions, and the differences before and after surgery for each individual, and accurately identifying their needs, should not be neglected.

The desire to delay the effects of aging as much as possible and live a more youthful life is the same for both men and women. It is important to thoroughly assess each individual's eyelid thickness, degree of sagging, amount of fat, and other various eye shapes, and to proceed while accurately predicting the shape that will settle in after surgery. At the same time, it is important to fully share, through active communication with the patient, an understanding of the image that will change after surgery and the patient's needs.
