Double Eyelid Revision Surgery: Why Analyzing the Cause of Failure is Crucial

Hello.

This is Vibe Plastic Surgery.

​

Among plastic surgeries in Korea,

double eyelid surgery is the most popular,

and as it has become common, the number of revision surgeries has also increased.

​

While there are revision surgeries due to side effects

from a botched first surgery, many people visit our clinic

for a consultation because they are dissatisfied with the shape of their eyelid line.

However, double eyelid revision surgery shouldn't be done recklessly, right?

Therefore, we will inform you of a few things

you should know.

​

Identifying the Cause for Double Eyelid Revision Surgery?

​

Because double eyelid revision surgery is performed

in a state where there is already tissue damage or adhesion

from the first surgery, the process of accurately analyzing

the cause of the primary surgery's failure is absolutely necessary.

Furthermore, a customized surgical plan must be established

by comprehensively considering the current height of your double eyelid line,

the strength of opening your eyes, the amount of fat, and the depth of fixation

to expect satisfactory results.

​

Double Eyelid Revision Surgery POINT!

​

A revision surgery that feels like your first!

​

Revision surgeries, where scars and adhesions from the previous surgery remain,

are considered very tricky to perform.

Vibe Plastic Surgery strives to cleanly restore the adhesions

and create a natural and beautiful eye line.

In addition, through an in-depth consultation with Chief Director Yoo Young-moon,

we provide a customized line that perfectly suits your face.

​

Double Eyelid Revision Surgery Cases

​

If the double eyelid has loosened:

Instead of simply fixing it strongly,

we must find the cause of the loosening and apply a surgical method

suitable for the skin thickness and fat volume.

​

If the double eyelid line is too high:

The height of the double eyelid line must be adjusted lower

to perform the surgery with a line and height that suits you.

​

If you have "sausage eyes" (thick, puffy eyelids):

Because there are various causes,

the surgery must be tailored to that specific cause.

Causes include having too much tissue under the double eyelid,

or the fixation being too strong.

​

If the eyelashes are lifted (everted):

The overcorrection must be released, and ptosis correction

must be redone to an appropriate degree through eye shape correction.

​

When is the Right Time for Double Eyelid Revision Surgery?

​

Double eyelid revision surgery cannot be done

just at any time.

The eyes often improve over time compared to the early postoperative period,

so revision surgery should be performed after 6 months

once it is confirmed that

the tissue state has stabilized.

However, since there are cases where early correction is necessary,

it is very important in such instances to consult with a plastic surgery specialist

who has abundant experience in eye revision surgeries.

​

​

For eye revision surgery, a more precise plan must be established

by meticulously checking the previous surgical methods,

the shape and design of the line, and more.

That is why our clinic

operates on a 1:1 dedicated system

under the responsibility of Chief Director Yoo Young-moon,

from pre-operative consultation to surgery and aftercare.
