What Should You Consider If You Need Revision Eye Surgery?

Hello.

This is Vibe Plastic Surgery.

​

​

Double eyelid surgery

is something you can easily find

people around you who have already had it or are planning to get it.

It is a widely performed surgery,

and the surgical method is relatively simple.

However, all surgeries can be accompanied by side effects.

Double eyelid surgery can also cause side effects.

​

​

Looking at the cases of side effects from double eyelid surgery,

there are many different types.

Among them, the one that accounts for the highest percentage

is known as sausage eyes.

In addition, there are eyes with different double eyelid sizes on the left and right,

cases where the double eyelid has loosened, cases where the eyelashes are lifted,

and eyes where ptosis correction was not properly done.

Let's look into the methods

to resolve these various side effects.

​

​

- Sausage Eyes

The double eyelid line must be lowered

to improve it into a natural-looking double eyelid.

The adhesions of an excessively high or deep line must be released,

and the line must be appropriately

re-established according to the shape of the eye.

​

- Asymmetrical Double Eyelid Sizes

Revision must be performed

with a double eyelid line that fits the desired eye shape.

This occurs when the height of the double eyelid line is actually different,

or when the height is the same but the size of the eyes is different.

The shape of the eyes must be closely analyzed

to perform surgery at an appropriate size.

​

- Loosened Double Eyelids

The cause of the loosening must be analyzed

to catch the appropriate method.

This occurs when the fixation of the double eyelid line is weak.

Surgery must be performed

considering a surgical method suitable for the skin thickness and fat amount.

​

- Lifted Eyelashes

The previous correction must be released

and ptosis correction must be performed.

If ptosis is overcorrected more than necessary,

the phenomenon of lifted eyelashes can occur.

The existing overcorrection must be released, and ptosis correction

must be performed again to an appropriate degree.

​

- Uncorrected Ptosis

The eye-opening muscle strength must be corrected

to build a natural line.

If only the double eyelid line is created without correcting ptosis,

the eyes can still look sleepy even after surgery,

so the line must be made naturally

through ptosis correction that corrects the eye-opening strength.

​

​

Revision eye surgery

is generally recommended to be done

about 6 months after the first surgery.

However, since the timing can vary,

sufficient consultation with the medical staff is necessary.

​

Acute Phase Revision Eye Surgery

Acute phase revision eye surgery, which corrects side effects that occurred immediately after surgery,

is performed within 1-2 weeks after surgery,

and it is best to perform the surgery as soon as possible.

However, since there are many cases where it gradually settles

and improves after the swelling goes down,

sufficient consultation with the medical staff is necessary.

​

Stabilization Phase Revision Eye Surgery

Generally, revision surgery is recommended

after about 6 months of progress,

but if recovery is fast and the tissues have stabilized,

it can be performed before 6 months in consultation with the medical staff.

​

General Revision Eye Surgery

It can be performed after more than 6 months have passed since the eye surgery

and the patient's surgical scars and skin tissues

have completely stabilized.

Generally, since the surgical results are judged

after 6 months post-surgery,

it is often performed as a late-stage revision surgery.

​

However, if there is pain or side effect symptoms

severe enough to make immediate daily life difficult,

please visit the clinic right away for a consultation.

“Revision Eye Surgery Process Check”

​

- Systematic Analysis of the Cause of Failure

For revision eye surgery,

you must prioritize choosing a place

that can accurately identify

the cause of failure in the first surgery.

This is because surgery must be performed

with full consideration of the incorrect cause of the first surgery

and the individual's eye condition, and a method is needed

to correct the problems with the eye shape and double eyelid

caused by the first surgery, and then fix the lacking parts.

​

- 1:1 Customized Consultation with the Chief Surgeon

You must choose a place where 1:1 customized consultation

is possible with medical staff equipped with rich clinical experience.

​

- Clean Restoration from Existing Adhesions

It must be able to meticulously dissect the adhered line from the previous surgery,

restore it to its original state, and create a foundation

to cleanly establish a new line.

​

- Creation of a New Line that Meets the Goal

It must be able to perform delicate and precise surgery

to create the desired line

according to the goal agreed upon through in-depth consultation.
