Asymmetric Eye Correction · CFS Surgery

Up to Severe Ptosis — Precise Correction

"

Asymmetric eye correction requires a well-established plan

"Because the causes vary, we must first determine whether to operate on only one side or both sides."

— Dr. Choi Dong-il, Chief Surgeon

ABOUT

What is Asymmetric Eye Correction?

Sunken Eyelids · Difference in Line Height · Ptosis — Customized approach by cause.

Asymmetric Eye Correction Consultation Model

Correction of one or both sides depending on the cause

Asymmetric eye correction requires a well-established surgical plan. If there is a difference in eyelid sinking, upper eyelid Fat Grafting method is used. If the asymmetry is due to different double fold line heights, the adhesion of the existing line is released, and a new line is created to match the desired height, correcting one or both sidesis performed in this manner.

※ Information on the surgical process and recovery may vary depending on the patient's condition.

Making Asymmetrical Double Eyelids Symmetrical in Patients with Facial Asymmetry

METHOD

Asymmetric Eye Correction Surgical Method

When double eyelid lines are different + When pupil sizes are different — Case-by-case approach.

METHOD A

When double eyelid shapes are different

First make the lines identical and correct

When double eyelid shapes are different, first make the lines identical and correct them. To achieve symmetry, the line on the desired side can be raised or lowered, and techniques such as double-line incision are required during the process of lowering or raising the line.

Asymmetric eyes with different left and right lines — Before surgery

Asymmetric eyes with different left and right lines

A state where one line is higher or lower.

After left and right line symmetry correction

After symmetry correction

Result of matching both lines using techniques like double-line incision.

METHOD B

When pupil sizes are different (Unilateral ptosis)

Matching symmetry through ptosis correction on the sleepy-looking side

When only one eye has ptosis, resulting in different degrees of pupil exposure, ptosis correction on the sleepy-looking sideis performed to correct them symmetrically.

Unilateral ptosis — Before surgery

Unilateral ptosis

A state where eye sizes look different due to less pupil exposure in one eye.

After ptosis correction on the sleepy-looking side

After ptosis correction on the sleepy-looking side

Result of matching symmetry through unilateral ptosis correction.

METHOD C · ADVANCED

Conjoint Fascia Sheath (CFS) Surgery

A high-difficulty surgery to improve severe ptosis

Conjoint fascia sheath (CFS)is used in this high-difficulty surgery to improve severe ptosis. Located behind the levator muscle and close to the superior rectus muscle, elastic ligament tissueis utilized.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to correct only one side?
Yes, it is possible. However, we first determine the exact cause to judge whether touching only one side will look natural, or if both sides need adjusting to achieve symmetry.
What is the difference between conjoined fascia surgery and general ptosis surgery?
Conjoined fascia surgery is a highly difficult technique utilizing the elastic ligament tissue behind the levator muscle, resulting in less lagophthalmos and better outcomes for opening and closing the eyes.
Is it possible even with diseases like thyroid conditions?
First, a medical evaluation is required. If the disease is active, the timing of the surgery is determined after stabilization.
What is the recovery period?
Stitch removal is in 5-7 days, and return to daily life is after 3-7 days. Major swelling subsides in 2-4 weeks, and natural results settle in at 3-6 months.
Might early correction be necessary?
Yes, due to the possibility of asymmetry after surgery, early correction is sometimes used for rapid adjustment. The exact timing is determined through a 1:1 consultation.
Surgery InformationComplications such as bleeding, infection, and inflammation may occur after surgery, and results vary by individual.
