Partial Incision Ptosis Correction and Epicanthoplasty
A case study of a teenage female who achieved a brighter, more defined look through partial incision ptosis correction and epicanthoplasty to address puffy eyelids and Mongolian folds.
* Basic Information
- Female in her teens
- Eye-opening strength: Slightly weak
- Skin thickness: Moderate
- Puffy upper eyelids due to excess fat
* Consultation
- The upper eyelids appear puffy due to excess fat. We planned to create a lighter, more refreshed look through fat removal.
- The Mongolian folds create a closed-off, stuffy appearance. We decided to open them up to make the eyes look clearer and larger!
* Surgical Plan
- Partial incision ptosis correction
- Epicanthoplasty
* Post-operative Progress
- Similar to the non-incision method, the partial incision method has a short recovery period and results in a very natural look.
- Doesn’t the impression look much clearer and brighter after the ptosis correction? Additionally, the appropriate removal of eyelid fat has resulted in a more refreshed and light impression.
My eyes were small and had a stuffy look before surgery, but I feel like a new person after getting double eyelid surgery and epicanthoplasty from Dr. Yoo Young-moon at VIBE Plastic Surgery. Not only did the actual size of my eyes increase, but the eye shape was corrected, and the Mongolian folds were cleaned up, which I love! During the consultation, I asked for a line that suits my face, and I think the director did a great job creating a beautiful in-out line. I am so satisfied. It’s been 3 months, and since it looks this good now, I’m excited to see it become even more natural and beautiful over time! My friends also say it looks so natural that you can’t tell I had surgery, which makes me proud. I love how I look in photos now!
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
VIBE comes from rich experience.
