Private Plastic Surgery Eye Surgery Edition: Have You Ever Had These Questions?
We've gathered all the questions you might be curious about regarding eye surgery and prepared a video to answer them through Private YouTube, specifically 'Private Lounge.'
Let's quickly check out the #FactCheck #EyeSurgery episode with #DrLeeJinhwa and #DrLeeJunwoo now!
The first question was, ‘Can I have eye surgery if I have atopic dermatitis in my eyes?’
The conclusion is, yes, you can! Furthermore, the issue after surgery is more important than having atopic dermatitis itself.
Whether due to itching from atopic dermatitis or simply a habit, frequently touching and rubbing your eyes after surgery
can loosen the line or cause it to unravel, so it's best to be extra careful.
Many people also use various methods like double eyelid glue or tape to maintain their double eyelids.
However, long-term use can lead to problems such as difficulty in forming a clear line or the creation of multiple folds.
Therefore, if you are considering surgery, it is advisable to refrain from using double eyelid glue or tape.
Another frequently asked question concerns the timing of LASIK and plastic surgery.
While opinions vary among doctors regarding LASIK before or after plastic surgery,
it is generally recommended to allow at least a month between procedures.
The more crucial aspect here is the condition of your eyes.
It's important to first assess whether your eyes have recovered sufficiently to handle swelling or another surgery.
Now, regarding questions about surgical results.
To the question, ‘How can my eyes look more open if lateral canthoplasty isn't suitable for me?’,
the doctors explained that the key is whether the canthoplasty would be effective.
If a patient is not a good candidate for lateral canthoplasty to achieve significant results,
it's better to achieve changes through other methods to improve both the outcome and satisfaction.
The doctors also explained that it is not advisable to proceed excessively beyond the limits when there is insufficient space.
We also receive many questions about whether smiling will look awkward after canthoplasty.
If the fixation is done on bone membrane-like tissue, these structures do not move when making expressions, which can lead to an awkward look.
However, at Private Plastic Surgery, we use a method of fixation to the fascia, which allows the fascia to move along with your expressions,
resulting in a more natural eye smile.
So, this was the 'Have You Ever Had These Questions? Eye Surgery Edition!' with the directors of Private Plastic Surgery!
