Men's Monolid Ptosis Correction

* Basic Information

· Age: 20s, male

· Eyelid lifting strength: Quite weak

· Skin drooping: 3 mm

· Skin thickness: Moderate

· Request: Defined eye shape with a monolid look

​

* Consultation

· He often hears that he looks sleepy or has an intimidating expression due to weak eyelid muscle strength.

· He is comfortable with a result ranging from a nearly invisible crease (full monolid) to a subtly visible crease.

· He had also considered epicanthoplasty, but since the inner corner was not particularly constricted, it was not recommended.

​

* Plan

Non-incision ptosis correction

* Post-Surgery Progress

· It has only been 2 weeks since surgery, so there is still some swelling. With time, the result should look more natural and settle into an almost monolid appearance.

· The patient is happy, saying it is easier to open his eyes and they look bigger. ^^ We have not been able to follow up as he has gone abroad, but we trust he is doing well.

· His eyelashes are incredibly long — even longer than those of most women wearing mascara!

* Key Points

1. Male eyelid surgery can achieve a wide range of looks: '1. no visible crease at all, 2. no crease at the inner corner that gradually widens toward the outer corner, 3. a faint inner crease visible from the start that mimics an inner double eyelid...' and many other variations.

2. Ptosis correction is a functional procedure. Those who have difficulty opening their eyes may suffer from headaches, forehead wrinkles, and other related symptoms — please consult a board-certified plastic surgeon.

For consultations and surgery, always see a board-certified plastic surgeon!
