30s Female, Achieving a Vivid Look with Incisional Ptosis Correction & Fat Repositioning 👀✨
A case study of a 30s female patient who achieved a youthful and symmetrical look through incisional ptosis correction and upper eyelid fat repositioning.

Hello.
I am Dr. Young-moon Yoo, Director of VIBE Plastic Surgery.
Today, I would like to introduce an eye surgery case of a female patient in her 30s. The patient was experiencing difficulties due to:
Weak eye-opening strength
Left-right asymmetry that caused significant concern whenever she took photos
Hollow upper eyelids that created a tired and aged impression.
👩 The Patient’s Primary Concerns
A sleepy appearance due to weak eye-opening strength
Asymmetry in the size and lines of the left and right eyes
Looking older and tired due to hollow upper eyelids
🩺 Surgical Method
To fundamentally resolve the patient’s issues, the following procedures were performed:
1. Incisional Ptosis Correction
Improved eye-opening strength by reinforcing the levator muscle (the muscle responsible for lifting the eyelid).
Achieved a clear and balanced look by correcting left-right asymmetry.
2. Upper Eyelid Fat Repositioning
Restored smooth and natural volume to the hollow upper eyelids by repositioning fat.
Improved the tired look and provided a more youthful effect.




📸 Before & After Comparison
Before Surgery
The eyes appeared sleepy as the eyelids drooped without strength.
The asymmetry was distinct, with different sizes and shapes for each eye.
The hollow upper eyelids strongly contributed to a tired and aged appearance.
After Surgery
Eye-opening strength was reinforced, resulting in clear and refreshed eyes.
Left-right asymmetry was corrected for a more stable and balanced impression.
The upper eyelids were naturally filled, transforming the image into a more youthful and healthy look.
🌟 Advantages of the Surgical Results
Beyond simply creating a double eyelid line, it improves the functional aspect of opening the eyes.
Achieves natural and stable eyes through asymmetry correction.
Improves hollowness and provides an anti-aging effect through fat repositioning.
🔍 Recommended For
Those who are often told they look tired due to weak eye-opening strength.
Those concerned about differences in eye size or asymmetry.
Those who look older or have a dark impression due to hollow upper eyelids.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this eye surgery recommended for?
This surgery is recommended for those who are often told they look tired due to weak eye-opening strength, or those concerned about differences in eye size and asymmetry between their left and right eyes. It is also suitable for individuals whose sunken eyelids make them look older or give them a dark impression.
What are the effects of incisional ptosis correction?
Incisional ptosis correction strengthens the power of the eye-opening muscle (levator palpebrae superioris) to improve eye-opening strength. This makes sleepy-looking eyes appear clearer and corrects left-right asymmetry, resulting in well-balanced eyes.
What is eyelid fat repositioning?
Eyelid fat repositioning is a surgery that repositions fat into sunken eyelids to restore a smooth and natural volume. You can expect to improve a tired-looking impression and achieve a more youthful appearance.
What changes can I expect after surgery?
After surgery, eye-opening strength is enhanced, creating clear and refreshing eyes. Left-right asymmetry is corrected, giving a stable impression, and the eyelids are naturally filled, transforming into a more youthful and healthy-looking image.
What are the characteristics of VIBE Plastic Surgery's eye surgery?
At VIBE Plastic Surgery, we don't just create beautiful eye shapes; we consider both functional correction of eye-opening and aesthetic improvement simultaneously. We pursue highly satisfying results that address both function and aesthetics by performing incisional ptosis correction and fat repositioning together.
What are the possible side effects after eye surgery?
Yes, complications and side effects such as bleeding, inflammation, infection, and asymmetry may vary by individual after surgery and require caution. It is important to consult sufficiently with a specialist before surgery.
