Double Eyelid Revision

Many patients who underwent double eyelid surgery to enhance their appearance
are experiencing significant distress due to unsatisfactory results.
Double eyelid revision involves greater tissue damage compared to the initial surgery,
making it a highly complex procedure that requires extra caution.

  • High Crease (Sausage Eyes)
  • Multiple Eyelid Creases
  • Unnatural Double Eyelids
  • Droopy Eyes (Ptosis)
  • Low Crease (Thin Line)
  • Asymmetric Double Eyelids
  • Loose Double Eyelids

For your final revision surgery, SISUN Plastic Surgery draws on extensive surgical experience built over many years
to accurately identify the underlying cause, improve both aesthetic and functional aspects,
and establish clear standards of naturalness to deliver the best results that satisfy our patients.

Double Eyelid Revision Candidates

  • Double eyelid crease is
    too high or too low
  • Double eyelid crease
    has multiple folds
  • Double eyelid has come undone
  • Double eyelid creases
    are asymmetric
  • Unsatisfactory results
    from previous surgery

The answer lies in problems within the eye's 3-layer structure.

Because each individual has different issues,
a comprehensive consideration of the eye's 3-layer anatomical structure is essential
to achieve satisfactory double eyelid revision results.

5 Essential Elements for Natural Double Eyelids
  1. A crease that is not too high
  2. Minimize skin, muscle,
    and soft tissue excision
  3. Fixation at proper depth,
    angle, and strength
  4. Normalize fat volume
    and positioning
  5. Correct eye-opening strength

01. A Crease That Is Not Too High
When the double eyelid crease is too high, the eyes themselves may look dramatic,
but considering the overall image, the result can appear unnatural.
HOW?
Orbital fat must be repositioned within the septum to ensure the double eyelid is stably maintained.

02. Minimize Skin, Muscle, and Soft Tissue Excision
(The Law of Preservation)
Excessive tissue removal not only makes the double eyelid crease look unnatural,
but also leads to various problems such as an awkward eye shape, lagophthalmos,
and eye dryness.
HOW?
Skin, muscle, and soft tissue excision must be kept to an absolute minimum.

Excessive skin, muscle, soft tissue excision NO

Double adhesion removal OK

How should drooping skin be treated without excision?

By combining surgical methods such as brow lift and endoscopic forehead lift to lift the drooping skin,
natural double eyelids can be achieved without skin removal.

03. Fixation at Proper Depth, Angle, and Strength
Even with the same crease height design, the fixation depth, angle, and strength can result in different appearances when the eyes are open.
HOW?
The fixation must be secured at proper strength with a double knot to ensure firm hold.

A low crease with shallow depth and a downward fixation angle may come undone,
while a high crease with deep fixation and an upward angle may result in a pinched appearance or sausage eyelids.

Faint crease, hidden crease
✓ Weak fixation
✓ Low crease with fixation angle

Natural double eyelid
✓ Secure adhesion at appropriate strength
✓ Linear connection of tarsal plate, aponeurosis, and skin soft tissue
✓ Natural adhesion of tissues
Sausage eyes, mucosa eversion
✓ Strong fixation
✓ High crease with fixation angle

04. Normalize Fat Volume and Positioning
When fat was excessively removed during the previous surgery,
the eyelid becomes sunken, requiring more effort to open the eyes,
and the double eyelid cannot fold stably,
leading to problems such as multiple creases.
HOW?
Orbital fat must be repositioned within the septum to ensure the double eyelid is stably maintained.
✓ Double dissection of adhered skin
✓ Fat repositioning
✓ Septum reinforcement

Posterior Layer

Incisional Ptosis Correction(Revision)+Lateral Canthoplasty(3 months)

05. Correct Eye-opening Strength
When the eyelid has no strength, the double eyelid crease is not defined,
making the eyes look drowsy. Additionally, using the eyebrow or forehead
muscles to open the eyes leads to secondary problems such as
forehead wrinkles or obstructed vision.
HOW?
Ptosis correction to strengthen eye-opening power must be performed to enable clear, wide-open eyes.
Ptosis Correction (Levator Aponeurosis Shortening)
The aponeurosis and Mueller's muscle are separated from the tarsal plate, then the levator muscle and Mueller's muscle are pulled together and sutured.
The Relationship Between Double Eyelids and Inner Corner Epicanthal Fold
Successful double eyelid surgery doesn't end with simply fixing the crease line.
The shape of the crease is determined by the presence and shape of the Mongolian fold at the inner corner.

Non-incisional Ptosis Correction(Revision)+Axis Rotation+Lateral Canthoplasty + Lower Eyelid Surgery(3 months)

  1. Hook-shaped inner corner
    covered by epicanthal fold
  2. Axis Rotation
  3. Inner corner shape and
    double eyelid crease correction

Epicanthoplasty Reconstruction+Lateral Canthoplasty Reconstruction(1 month)

  1. Inner corner scar and
    out-fold double eyelid
  2. Epicanthoplasty Reconstruction
  3. Inner corner scar removal
    and in-out fold correction

For an ideal double eyelid crease, depending on the presence and shape of the inner corner epicanthal fold,
medial epicanthoplasty, upper epicanthoplasty, epicanthoplasty reconstruction, axis rotation and other surgical methods must be performed in combination.

SISUN's Double Eyelid Revision POINT

From start to finish, choose SISUN

We recommend revision surgery after
a minimum of 6 months to 1 year.
Although it varies by patient condition, tissue must stabilize before a successful revision can be expected.

It generally takes 6 months to 1 year for stabilization. The revision should be performed after the eye tissue has settled, the surgical scar has softened, and swelling has subsided.

Many cases show gradual improvement over the 6-month period after surgery, so it is recommended to monitor progress before deciding on revision surgery.

Double Eyelid Revision Q&A
Q. Does double eyelid revision leave a lot of scarring?
No. In fact, the revision can be performed while concealing scars from the previous surgery.
While scars from the previous surgery cannot be completely removed,
we consider the scar location and appearance when the eyes are closed to make existing scars as inconspicuous as possible
during revision. We also offer Healite, laser therapy, and scar injections for scar prevention.
Q. Can I get revision surgery right after double eyelid surgery?
Generally, if the double eyelid surgery was performed using the non-incisional method, revision is recommended after 4 months.
If the incisional method was used, revision is recommended after 6 months to 1 year.
This is because it is safer to proceed with additional revision after the surgical area tissue has stabilized and swelling has subsided.
In cases where complications such as inflammation or bacterial infection occur,
the revision should be performed after complete treatment, regardless of these timeframes.
Q. I previously had incisional double eyelid surgery. Can I get revision with the non-incisional method?
Even if you originally had incisional double eyelid surgery, non-incisional revision is possible.
However, if the skin has significantly stretched or is thick, or if there is severe scarring from the incision,
non-incisional revision may not be possible. This can be accurately determined through an in-person consultation.
