Repair, Refine, and Restore Natural Eye Harmony

Revision blepharoplasty corrects issues after a prior eyelid surgery—such as asymmetry, hollowing, persistent puffiness, visible scars, or a crease that sits too high/low. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified facial surgeon focuses on safe structure restoration, subtle aesthetics, and smooth blink function.

When Revision Is Recommended

• Asymmetry of lid height, crease, or shape
• Hollow upper lids or sunken look after over-resection
• Bolsas residuales/laxitud cutánea tras blefaroplastia inferior
• Pliegues altos/bajos o múltiples, membranas o cicatrices visibles
• Lagophthalmos (incomplete closure) or irritation from poor tension

Our Approach

• Análisis detallado de la función MRD1/elevador, diseño del pliegue y patrón de la cicatriz
• Support first, refine second: restore structure (fat/retroseptal tissue, levator balance) before cosmetic detailing
• Ethnicity-aware crease height/shape for natural harmony
• Conservative adjustments to protect blink and ocular surface

Surgical Techniques We May Use

• Revisión de pliegues y re-anclaje a una altura apropiada
• Fat grafting or repositioning to correct hollowing
• Skin/ORBICULARIS redraping for smooth contour
• Levator/Müller’s adjustment if ptosis co-exists
• Scar release & Z-plasty for webbing/adhesions
• Lower lid support (canthopexy/canthoplasty) when needed

What to Expect on Surgery Day

• Anesthesia: local with sedation or general (case-dependent)
• Duration: ~60–150 minutes depending on complexity
• Incisiones: ocultas en los pliegues naturales o en la línea de las pestañas cuando sea posible.
• Discharge: same day with lubrication and cold-compress plan

Recovery Timeline

• Swelling/bruise: 5–10 days (social downtime)
• Suture removal: 5–7 days
• Crease settling and symmetry refinement: 4–12 weeks
• Final definition: 3–6+ months (revisions heal slower than primary)

Results You Can Expect

• More natural crease height and smoother contour
• Balanced symmetry between both eyes
• Comfortable closure/blink and reduced irritation
• Refreshed appearance without an “operated” look

Aftercare

• Cold compress first 48 hours, head elevation 1 week
• Prescribed lubricating drops/ointment to protect the eye
• Avoid heavy exercise, contact lenses, sauna 2 weeks
• Begin scar care/SPF 50+ after suture removal; consider silicone/laser polish

Combination Options

• Reparación de ptosis para debilidad verdadera del elevador
• Brow-tail lift (thread/endoscopic) if lateral hooding persists
• Potenciadores de la piel/LDM/tonificación para la textura y modulación del enrojecimiento después de la cicatrización
• Tear-trough refinement (filler/fat graft) for full periorbital harmony

Seguridad e idoneidad
