When Is the Most Appropriate Time for Revision Double Eyelid Surgery?

Among the cosmetic procedures with the highest demand these days, eye surgery is undoubtedly one of them. Since the eyes have a major influence on determining the overall impression of the face, more and more people are seeking to improve their image through eye surgery, which has a relatively short recovery period compared with other cosmetic surgeries, involves less swelling and pain, and has a simpler procedure. As demand for eye surgery increases, the number of patients seeking revision surgery due to indiscriminate procedures is also rapidly rising.

In the case of revision eye surgery, many people decide to undergo it not only because of side effects, but also because the result did not meet their expectations. There are various types, such as asymmetry between the double eyelids after surgery, a sausage-like eye shape where the swelling seems to remain even months after surgery, a double eyelid line that was made too high or too low, double eyelids that have come undone, or surgical scars that are too noticeable.

If the desired double eyelids do not appear or side effects occur, social life becomes inconvenient and stress can be severe, making it easy to decide on revision surgery hastily. However, to avoid repeating the failure of the first surgery, it is very important to understand the appropriate timing for revision eye surgery.

Then, when should revision eye surgery be done?

Revision eye surgery is possible after at least six months have passed since the previous operation date. This is because, after the first surgery, the wound has fully healed and it becomes possible to assess the eye shape and double eyelid line once the swelling has subsided. It is difficult to define it exactly as six months, and the timing when scar tissue from the first surgery softens and the swelling and redness at the surgical site disappear differs from person to person, so the detailed timing should be decided after a one-on-one consultation with a specialist to check the eyes, eye tissue, and skin condition.

At VN Plastic Surgery Clinic, we analyze and identify the causes of the previous surgery’s failure, select the appropriate surgical method accordingly, and reflect functional considerations and the client’s opinions in order to deliver more satisfying results.
