What does this combination correct?
This case shows revision surgery, upper blepharoplasty and lower blepharoplasty at Sinsa L Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul. Combining these procedures in one session treats several problems — unsatisfactory previous eyelid surgery; heavy or hooded upper lids; eye bags with loose or crepey lower-lid skin — with a single recovery period. The upper lids were revised after a previous operation while the lower lids were treated at the same time. All photos are standardised, shared with patient consent, and every case was operated by Dr. Lee himself. Individual results vary.
What was done in this case
- Revision surgery — Problems from a previous eyelid operation were diagnosed and corrected.
- Upper blepharoplasty — Excess upper-lid skin was removed and a natural crease re-set.
- Lower blepharoplasty — Bulging lower-lid fat was corrected and lower-lid skin and support refined.
