I am Korean, had double eyelid surgery in January 2022. I had natural double eyelids and wanted to remove extra skin from aging. During the healing process, I never felt like my left eye crease looked natural and seemed too high in the inner corner. I had ptosis surgery June 2023 to help lift the lid, and now (November 2024) I think everything has healed and settled into the final result. I still think the left inner crease looks ‘ropey’ and unnaturally high. Would a crease revision help?
