A case study of a female patient in her 20s who achieved clear, symmetrical eyes through incisional revision surgery after her previous double eyelid surgery became loose.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Previous incisional double eyelid surgery & epicanthoplasty (+) several years ago
# Main complaints and goals: ‘The lines have become loose and asymmetrical. I want clear, defined lines.’
* Consultation
# The double eyelid lines have loosened and are covered by sagging skin, making them nearly invisible. The patient desires a more defined line through revision surgery.
# We decided to proceed with an incisional revision to remove scar tissue from the previous surgery and create a secure, clear line that will not loosen.
* Plan
# Incisional Ptosis Correction (Revision Surgery)
