  • Posted to Eyelid Surgery to Create Double Eyelid and Make Eyes Look Bigger - Korea on 9 Jan 2013

    It looks like too much orbital fat has been removed during your surgery, which has resulted in the sunken and hollow left upper eyelid. You also appear to have developed multiple skin creases above the left double eyelid which is common after unnecessary fat removal. This can be fixed by fat transfer from other part of the body or using a substitute, such as fillers. It's not a skin problem, your surgeon is obviously not very educated. I'm not a doctor, yet I can easily see the problem. If I was in your position, I would go for revision surgery with another more experienced surgeon.

    I'm not a doctor, but it appears that you may have ptosis in your left eye. This is relatively easy to correct if you go to an experienced surgeon. I'm assuming since you had a semi-open incision, they attached the lid to the orbital septum rather than then levator aponeurosis? If I'm right, then only a minimal amount of fat would've been removed and there would be no serious damage to the internal structures of the eye, making revision surgery easy if you still wish to undergo another operation. I live in Australia, so there aren't many fully qualified plastic surgeons who specialise in Asian procedures here. However, you're fortunate to live in the U.S. where you have an array of choice. One surgeon in particular that I planned to see once I flew over was Dr. Charles Lee in Beverly Hills. You should watch some of his videos on Youtube about ptosis and symmetry in Asian eyelid surgery.
