REAL Story 1: Eye, Nose, and Facial Line Transformation

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# Medical History: Incisional double eyelid surgery (twice), epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, alar reduction

* Diagnosis of Current Condition

# Eyes

- Eye-opening strength is not bad, but the low position of the eyebrows creates a heavy, pressing look on the eyes.

- The narrow space between the eyebrows and eyes results in a bulging and stuffy appearance.

- Scars from the two previous eyelid surgeries are prominent, and the eyelids feel heavy and puffy.

# Nose

- Low nasal bridge and drooping nose tip.

- The bridge line appears uneven due to a hump.

- The cartilage is very thin and lacks structural strength.

# Face Shape

- The face looks round and heavy due to fat in the cheeks and double chin area.

* Desired Changes

# Eyes

- Wants to improve the loosened lines and multiple folds to achieve a clear, large ‘out-line’ (parallel) double eyelid.

- Wants to reduce the puffiness of the eyelids for a more refreshed and defined look.

- Previously had lateral canthoplasty but saw no effect; wants to open up the outer corners more effectively.

# Nose

- Wants to smooth out the uneven bridge and achieve a sleek ‘straight-semi-basal’ (straight-curved) line.

- Wants the low, wide-looking bridge to appear more defined and elongated.

# Facial Line

- Wants a smoother V-line.

- Desires a sleek profile and jawline.

* Surgical Plan

# Eyes

- Endoscopic Forehead Lift

- Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery (3rd revision)

- Mango Canthoplasty (2nd revision)

# Nose

- Rhinoplasty (Hump reduction, silicone implant)

- Tip Plasty (Donated rib cartilage: Septal extension graft + Ear cartilage: Layered graft)

# Face Shape

- Ultrasonic Liposuction (Double chin, jawline)

- Buccal Fat Removal

* Post-operative Progress

# Eyes

- A bold out-line was successfully created, yet the eyelids do not look puffy at all. A light and refreshed eye shape was achieved.

- Through incisional revision surgery, all previous scars were removed, and we focused on creating a natural look as if it were her first surgery.

# Nose

- As expected during surgery, the septal cartilage was extremely thin and weak. We also discovered a severe deviation (signs of a past fracture) in the middle of the septum.

- While preserving the septum as much as possible, the tip was reconstructed using donated rib cartilage and ear cartilage. This resulted in a natural yet sharp, straight-curved tip line.

- The bridge was smoothed and heightened, drawing attention to the center of the face. This added three-dimensional depth to a previously flat face, making it appear smaller and more balanced, which the patient was very satisfied with.

# Face Shape

- The V-line was completed through ultrasonic liposuction (double chin, jawline) and buccal fat removal.

- The overall look appears much lighter and more refined, doesn’t it?
