I am posting a review of my double eyelid surgery last year. I also wrote this on my blog, so please understand the sloppy nature of copying and pasting...
(I had the surgery last summer, exactly 1 year ago)
Status before revision surgery) I had double eyelid surgery 8 years ago, which is not as famous as epicanthoplasty. (I should have sold my feet a lot at this time. I thought double hands were all the same.)
- I had pseudoptosis.
-The surgery was performed through an incision and there was left and right asymmetry. The degree of epicanthoplasty is different, with one side being in-out and the other side being semi-out.
-There was a sunken scar on one side.
-Is it because one eye is loose or the power to open the eye is weak? Even when the eye is opened, the tissue does not go straight into the eye and it opens as if slightly sleepy.
-The area between the eyebrows is a bit narrow.
The most important thing to focus on during consultation
is whether it can be corrected to make it as symmetrical as possible.
-And what I felt while walking around was that as soon as I walked in, they pinpointed exactly what the problem was and clearly explained how they would fix it, so I felt trustworthy. If you ask the patient what they are complaining about, it seems like they don't know the problem, so I don't really trust them... -If
possible, I prefer a one-person eye hospital.
What surprised me was that each director had a different surgical method. Opinions were 50/50 on whether to do double eyelid surgery or another round of excision, and opinions were divided on whether or not eye correction should be done. The further I go, the more I wonder what he will say...

There weren't many search results for the cafe because a friend of mine said he did it here, but I went there and got some advice.
Consultation fee: 10,000 won. Instead, make it longer.
First, please make sure you understand the problem. The asymmetry is due to the difference in the size of the epicanthoplasty, the epicanthoplasty is severe on one side, so it is not easy to give birth through in-out, and there is a scar and a little sausage.
There was a 50% chance of being satisfied, so my mom and I, who went with us, decided to give it a try. You have to have at least 70-80% to be worth the surgery, but if it's 50%, it's not an odd or even bet since you'll spend the money and recovery time... Pointing out the
problem and surgery are two different things, so after the consultation, I'll go somewhere else.

The director here also kindly provides advice.
I had faith in him because he was confident about asymmetry correction.
He said he would pick two lines here and also talked about eye correction. I asked him if he had two scars left, and he said he barely made the team. He said the line was a bit high so let's lower it.
I asked about epicanthoplasty restoration as well, but they said it would only restore about 1mm, so I would not be satisfied with the price. They say it would be better to have one side wider... But I have narrow eyebrows, so making them narrower would have been a bit much.
They said they would give me a small discount if I posted a review, but it was still a bit more expensive out of the 8 places.

The director here looks talented. After looking at it, he said to lower the line with moderation rather than picking two lines.
The explanation was good, but the problem was that the counselor was too burdensome. He almost forced me to make a same-day reservation, so I barely showed up. He
kept asking me what to do with sausages and telling me to make an appointment quickly. Huh..
The surgery fee was a bit high, so I just showed up to sell my hair elsewhere.

This place is famous for fillers, but surprisingly, it is also talked about a lot as a nounjae, so I asked for a consultation.
Um... it was the head director, and he looked quite tired.
He said the line height was okay here and recommended that it be resolved with eye correction.
The cost is the cheapest among 8 places.

This is not the place where I had surgery, but if I had not had it done in one place, it would have been the second place.
It is a one-person hospital specializing in eyes, and the director explains things very well.
He said there was no need for eye correction and recommended just lowering the lines.
He said that because the skin margin was tight, he had to pick two lines.
He said that you don't have to remove the fat and that if you do eye correction incorrectly, it will be overcorrected, so you don't have to do it. There is trust in what you say.
I tried to make a reservation here, but I thought it wouldn't be a good idea to do it hastily, so I left. The price is medium level.

Rather than giving his own opinion, the director here simply said that we could do this or that based on the problems I mentioned and the complaints about my existing eyes. If one side is cloudy, you can correct the eye on one side, restore the epicanthoplasty on one side, or open another side... and so on.. There were
so many different price options depending on the incision, lowering the line, and restoring one side of the epicanthoplasty for eye correction, or opening another epicanthoplasty. .

I heard that this place is famous and has many doctors. There were a lot of people waiting.
Among the directors, only a few have a consultation fee, while others do not have a consultation fee. They say the female director is famous, but she doesn't charge consultation fees because she's someone else.
They say that the eye problem is caused by sagging skin, and that the sagging skin is removed to lower the line just a little. It is said that it is difficult to put a player in and out if he has already been semi-out once.
It is also recommended to have epicanthoplasty on only one side. The gap between the eyebrows will be narrower, but the benefit of correcting the asymmetry will be greater...
The director's explanation here was good, but I was worried because he was young and it was not a one-person hospital. The price is the cheapest among 8 places

Where
I
A one-person hospital specializing in eye care.
As soon as I got there, he said it was mild sausage eyes and showed me a few similar before and after photos. He said he would improve the sunken scar and that he would do it through excision because he had spare skin. Eye correction is not recommended here either. I decided to go here because I believed in the before-and-after photos and felt that the doctor had some confidence in the surgery rather than just performing the surgery according to the patient's wishes. Currently, it has been a year since the surgery, so all the
swelling
has gone down. I can post a review later. I guess
