Hello~ ​

💎your beauty universe! This is Dr. Shim Jeong-hwan, Head Director of Wevers Plastic Surgery :)💎

Why might the eyes not close completely after revision eye surgery?

It could be due to swelling causing the eyes to close less,

or because the surgery involves splitting the orbicularis oculi muscle, which is responsible for closing the eyes,

so the eyes might not close fully as a result of the procedure.

If a significant amount of ptosis correction is performed, the lifting force becomes stronger, which can also prevent the eyes from closing completely.

Generally, if the eyes remain open by about 1-2mm, this will recover naturally over time.
