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
  • Residual bags/skin laxity after lower blepharoplasty
  • High/low or multiple creases, webbing, or visible scars
  • Lagophthalmos (incomplete closure) or irritation from poor tension

Our Approach

  • 对 MRD1/提上睑肌功能、皱褶设计和瘢痕模式进行详细分析
  • 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

  • Crease revision & re-anchoring at an appropriate height
  • 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
  • Incisions: hidden in natural creases or lash line when possible
  • 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

  • Ptosis repair for true levator weakness
  • Brow-tail lift (thread/endoscopic) if lateral hooding persists
  • 愈合后使用皮肤强化剂/LDM/爽肤水来改善肤质和泛红。
  • Tear-trough refinement (filler/fat graft) for full periorbital harmony

安全性和适用性

  • Thorough evaluation for dry eye and lagophthalmos risk
  • Fitzpatrick-aware scar management to reduce PIH
  • 由持有专业资格认证的面部外科医生采用对眼表安全的方案进行手术。
