[Rari Plastic Surgery] Before-and-After Photos of Surgery to Remove a Folded Double Eyelid After Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery

Some people may find it surprising that an incisional double eyelid surgery can come undone,

but double eyelid surgery, whether incisional or non-incisional, always carries the possibility of loosening.

This patient also had an incisional double eyelid surgery performed more than ten years ago, but it came undone,

leaving only an awkward, vague line that was not smooth and was ruining the appearance of the eyes.

When a double eyelid line comes undone, revision surgery is usually performed to clearly redefine the existing loosened line, but once a double eyelid has come undone, even if the line is recreated, there is a high chance that it will loosen again.

Because of that, the alternative option is surgery to remove the double eyelid. In the past, surgery to remove a double eyelid was not well known, so people naturally thought of double eyelid revision surgery or surgery to lower the double eyelid crease, but now, including removing the double eyelid, we can consider a total of three options.

People who have lived for a long time with eyes in this poor condition after their double eyelid line came undone often become fed up with double eyelids, and generally choose to remove the double eyelid entirely. It is also the best choice because there is no concern or worry that it will come undone again.

The key point of surgery to remove a double eyelid is completely releasing the existing adhesions of the double eyelid, so it is difficult to perform as a non-incisional procedure and is mostly done as incisional surgery. Therefore, similar to double eyelid surgery, there will be an incision line and sutured area on the eyelid, and until the stitches are removed, there will be multiple stitches in place.

However, unlike double eyelid surgery, there is not much swelling, so recovery tends to be relatively fast, and because there is no crease line, there is no asymmetry in crease thickness or shape, which is a major advantage.

Depending on the eye shape and condition, after removing the double eyelid, some people may find that their eyes look a little smaller or that the eyelid area appears puffy, so it is best to receive a consultation in advance before surgery.
