Incisional Double Eyelid (Revision) & Under-Eye Fat Repositioning
A case study of a female patient in her 30s who underwent incisional double eyelid revision and under-eye fat repositioning to correct asymmetry and dark circles.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 30s
# Medical History: Non-incisional (buried) method several years ago
# Current Status & Requirements: The double eyelid lines have completely unraveled and become loose, causing asymmetry. Dark circles under the eyes make her look more tired.
* Consultation
# Although she had double eyelid surgery in the past, the lines have almost entirely faded. The sense of asymmetry is also quite severe.
# It would be beneficial to simultaneously improve the tired impression caused by under-eye dark circles.
* Surgical Plan
# Incisional Double Eyelid (Revision)
# Under-Eye Fat Repositioning
* Post-operative Progress
# The patient is very satisfied as the lines have become clear and the under-eye dark circles are resolved, giving her a much brighter and refreshed appearance :)
