Hello~

💎your beauty universe! This is Weverse Plastic Surgery :)💎

The skin under the eyes is one of the thinnest on our body.

When thin skin is exposed to a sharp object like a scalpel, it is inevitable that a wound will be left behind.

Not only is the recovery period long, but scars often remain even after it has healed.

For this reason, many people considering lower blepharoplasty are concerned about scars,

making them hesitant to undergo the surgery.

​

Today, we will find out whether lower blepharoplasty, which involves an under-eye incision, leaves a scar.

Will lower blepharoplasty with an under-eye incision leave noticeable scars?

The incision site for lower blepharoplasty is located in the skin crease of the lower eyelid, about 2mm below the eyelashes.

However, for some people, the surgical marks from lower blepharoplasty are highly visible,

while for others, the marks are barely noticeable.

What is the reason for this difference?

Surgical marks can be minimized by taking care at every stage of the surgery to ensure the scar remains inconspicuous.

1) When designing the incision site, we carefully locate and design along the thin crease of the lower eyelid skin.

2) During surgery, we minimize damage to the incision site and appropriately adjust the amount of skin excised to ensure there is no excessive tension on the sutured area.

3) If the under-eye incision site is not made too flat, but rather maintains a slight volume to form the shape of the aegyo-sal (under-eye charm roll),

the incision site can be made much less noticeable.

4) During suturing, the skin edges are perfectly aligned to prevent them from rolling inward.

5) By removing the stitches at the appropriate time, we can prevent hypertrophic scarring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the incision made during lower blepharoplasty?

The incision is made in the skin crease approximately 2mm below the lower eyelid eyelashes. By carefully identifying and designing the thin, wrinkled skin area under the eye, the scar after surgery is less noticeable.

Will there be severe scarring after lower blepharoplasty?

No, scarring can be minimized depending on the surgical method. By reducing damage to the incision site, appropriately adjusting the amount of skin excised, and lowering the tension of the sutured area, surgical marks can heal to be almost imperceptible.

Are there any surgical techniques to make scars less visible?

Yes, creating a slight volume under the eyes to form an aegyo-sal (cute eye roll) can make the incision site less noticeable. Additionally, carefully aligning the skin edges during suturing and ensuring they do not roll inward is important for minimizing scars.

When is it best to remove stitches after lower blepharoplasty?

Stitches should be removed on the appropriate date guided by the medical staff. If stitches are removed too late or managed incorrectly, hypertrophic scars can form, so removing them at the right time is essential for scar prevention.
