Hi Everyone,

It's been about 5 years since I had my double eyelid surgery at VIP. I went to VIP for a revision surgery because from my previous surgery (which was a non-incision method at a different hospital) my eyelid got loosen up and I needed a revision job.

The doctor told me that my previous surgery did not correct ptosis symptom and suggested me to have incision double eyelid with ptosis correction surgery. I was afraid since I knew that incision will make me swell even more than the non-incision, but went for it hoping for a long term result.

Although I did swell somewhat right after the surgery, looking back at it, it was well worth the wait. around 5 years now since the surgery, my eyes look super natural and everyone comments how pretty my eyes are (they can't even imagine how I had double eyelid surgery lol) I don't think my eyes will ever loosen up again like last time.

Everyone at VIP is super friendly and helpful, especially the two managers. I am actually going back to VIP for nose job this summer. I will share my nose job experience later too!

I agree! Your eyes are gorgeous!!! How much was your eyelid surgery? Do you recall which doctor? Did you have an inner fold to begin with and had it corrected also? (Epicanthoplasty?) I have a thicker inner corner and am doing research for my surgery! Thanks!

Thank you!!! I think it was around 2,500,000 Korean Won because it was a revision. My doc was Dr. Song Hyung Min and I just did eyelid, not epi!

Hey, your eyes look amazing! I was just wondering, as I may plan to have incisional eyelid surgery. Does a lot of the swelling go down after a week and a half? I dont want to go back to work and look really weird. Thanks x

Hey, how many mm is your new crease height?
