Eye and Contracted Nose Revision Surgery Review | Why a Man's Eye and Nose Revision Surgery Changed at Apgujeong VAVA
This article details a man's eye and contracted nose revision surgery at Apgujeong VAVA, addressing issues like loose double eyelids, scars, and nasal contracture.





Among those who have undergone eye or nose surgery,
some may experience decreased satisfaction over time,
or consider another surgery.
In this article,
we will introduce the case of a man who underwent simultaneous eye and nose revision surgery
due to a double eyelid line that had loosened after surgery
and contracture symptoms that appeared after nose surgery.
Why the loosened double eyelids and scars remained a concern even after incision revision surgery

In this male eye and nose revision surgery case,
the biggest concerns for the eyes were the repeatedly loosened double eyelid line
and the incision scars remaining from previous surgeries.
The model in question:
✔ Had undergone double eyelid revision surgery using the incision method in the past,
✔ But the line loosened again over time,
✔ And the scars made his eyes look less clean.
For eyes that have undergone multiple revision surgeries,
a precise analysis of tissue adhesion, scar distribution, and eyelid lifting strength
is absolutely necessary.
Objective numerical diagnosis with EGNIMA Eye Analysis AI

At Apgujeong VAVA Plastic Surgery,
before eye revision surgery, EGNIMA Eye Analysis AI is used
to precisely measure the eye structure numerically.
✔ Average distance between male eyes: approximately 36mm
✔ Measurement result for this model: approximately 34.5mm
Numerically, he had eyes with a wider gap between them
compared to the average range.
Why ‘epicanthoplasty’ was chosen instead of ‘medial canthoplasty’


For this model:
✔ Since the lacrimal caruncle was sufficiently exposed,
✔ Excessive medial canthoplasty could have made his impression too strong.
However,
due to the skin covering the inner corner of his eyes,
his eyes appeared somewhat closed-off,
so the plan was to combine ‘epicanthoplasty’ instead of ‘medial canthoplasty’.
This approach focused on
naturally complementing the horizontal expansion of the eyes
without artificial changes,
and creating a refreshing impression suitable for a man’s eyes.
Contracted Nose Revision Surgery, Redesigning the Nasal Bridge to Match the Tip Height

For the nose, the biggest concern was contracture symptoms.
✔ The nasal tip was excessively high compared to the nasal bridge,
✔ Resulting in a ‘pinched’ appearance of the nasal tip,
✔ And the nasal bridge appeared relatively thick and dull.


At Apgujeong VAVA Plastic Surgery,
the balance between the nasal bridge and tip was redesigned
by checking the post-operative appearance in advance through virtual surgery (Photoshop simulation).


The core of this contracted nose revision surgery was
✔ Adjusting the nasal bridge line to match the nasal tip height,
✔ Improving the pinched nasal tip,
✔ And correcting the thick-looking nasal bridge and bulbous nose simultaneously.
Considering Facial Harmony with Eye and Nose BTI Type Tests


As both eye and nose surgeries were revisions,
the overall facial harmony was considered important,
rather than simply improving individual areas.
To achieve this,
✔ Eye BTI type test
✔ Nose BTI type test
were conducted together
to comprehensively design eye shapes and nose lines
that suited the model's face shape and image.
Contracted Nose Revision Surgery Material: Why Autologous Rib Cartilage Was Chosen
For this male nose revision surgery,
autologous rib cartilage (the patient's own rib cartilage) was chosen as the nasal material.

Autologous rib cartilage is
✔ A material often chosen for revision surgeries
✔ When there is tissue damage from repeated surgeries,
✔ To reduce the risk of contracture,
✔ And when structural stability is required.
The focus was not on simply increasing height excessively,
but on creating a stable nasal structure for the long term.
Male eye and nose revision surgery: results differ in the details.


This case involved
✔ Revision surgery for loosened double eyelids,
✔ Correction of incised eyes with remaining scars,
✔ Contracted nose revision surgery,
✔ And improvement of a bulbous and pinched nose,
making it a complex case with multiple concerns.

Apgujeong VAVA Plastic Surgery
proposes a more precise and safer approach even in revision surgeries
through EGNIMA Eye Analysis AI, virtual surgery simulations, BTI type tests, and more.
Revision surgery is not simply redoing a surgery;
it is crucial to accurately identify the causes of previous surgical failures.
