Hello~

💎your beauty universe! I am Dr. Park Sun-hee, Director of Uverse Plastic Surgery :)💎

There are people who consider double eyelid revision surgery because the line lowers

or becomes a hidden double eyelid over time after their initial double eyelid surgery.

Let's find out the reasons why the double eyelid line lowers as time passes.

​

Why does the double eyelid line lower after surgery?

The first reason is due to swelling,

and the second is that the line appears smaller because you are applying force to your eyes.

The third is that the line actually becomes smaller, which can happen because the double eyelid has loosened,

causing it to decrease in size.

If you had surgery using the incisional method, scar tissue forms on the double eyelid line,

making the line actually lower than it was, so it may appear smaller.

A way to check if your double eyelid has lowered is to look in the mirror

and see if the fold follows your original double eyelid line or if it goes along a lower line

by slowly raising and lowering your head.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the double eyelid line become lower after surgery?

There are four main reasons. First, the swelling subsides after surgery; second, it's due to the habit of opening the eyes with force. Third, the double eyelid fixation may have actually loosened, and fourth, scar tissue formed after incisional surgery can make the line appear lower.

Does the double eyelid line look smaller when the swelling goes down?

Yes, that's correct. Immediately after surgery, the double eyelid line appears large and thick due to swelling, but as time passes and the swelling gradually subsides, the line naturally appears lower and smaller. This is a normal part of the recovery process.

Can the line become lower after incisional surgery?

Yes, it can. In cases where double eyelid surgery was performed using the incisional method, scar tissue can form at the incision site, which may make the line appear lower than originally designed. The appearance of the line height can change depending on the nature of the scar tissue.

How can I check if my double eyelid line has become lower?

You can easily check using a mirror. While looking in a mirror, slowly raise and lower your head. By observing whether your eyelid folds along the original double eyelid line or a lower line, you can determine if the line has become lower.
