Incisional Ptosis Correction & Epicanthoplasty + Under-Eye Fat Repositioning
A case study of a 20s female patient with severe ptosis, skin sagging due to atopy, and tired-looking under-eyes, corrected via incisional surgery and fat repositioning.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 20s
# Eye-opening muscle strength: Very weak
# Thin and significantly sagging skin due to atopy
# Multiple skin folds due to frequent rubbing and weak eye-opening strength
# Sunken and tired appearance caused by protruding under-eye fat
* Consultation
# The patient visited with a sleepy appearance due to very small eyes and weak eye-opening strength.
# Frequent rubbing since childhood due to atopy caused skin sagging and severe multiple folds.
# Strong Mongolian folds made the inner corners look blocked and stuffy.
# We planned to create a clearer and more refreshed impression through ptosis correction.
# We also planned to clean up the protruding under-eye fat and tired look with under-eye fat repositioning.
# The patient mentioned that many other clinics were uncertain about the surgical outcome due to the severity of her ptosis.
* Surgical Plan
# Incisional Ptosis Correction
# Epicanthoplasty
# Under-Eye Fat Repositioning
* Post-operative Progress
# With the creation of natural double eyelid lines and the correction of eye-opening strength, the patient now has a much clearer and brighter impression.
# By opening up the blocked Mongolian folds, the eyes look much more refreshed and elongated, don’t they?
# Many people worry that the incisional method will result in an unnatural, overly thick, or awkward look. However, if the surgery is performed according to the proper indications, there is no need to worry about scarring or lack of naturalness.
# The tired look caused by under-eye fat has also been improved, resulting in a much cleaner appearance.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!
