Hello~

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

Double eyelid surgery refers to a procedure that fixes the dermis or orbicularis oculi muscle to the tarsal plate or

the levator palpebrae superioris muscle.

​

Double eyelid surgery methods include the non-incisional method, natural adhesion method, and incisional method.

​

The natural adhesion method creates a double eyelid line by connecting

the eyelid skin and muscle with a thread.

It has the advantage of leaving almost no scarring,

but if the skin is thick, the double eyelid

may loosen over time.

​

Many people undergo double eyelid surgery, but

the number of cases where people consider revision surgery due to

dissatisfaction or side effects is also increasing.

​

​

When proceeding with revision surgery using the natural adhesion method again,

many people wonder if the threads from the previous surgery

need to be removed.

​

Today, let's find out whether the threads need to be removed during natural adhesion revision surgery.

​

​

Should the threads from the previous surgery be removed when doing a revision with natural adhesion?

​

It is not absolutely necessary to remove them, but in some cases,

it might be better to remove the previous non-incisional threads.

​

Non-absorbable threads are used in the non-incisional method of double eyelid surgery.

Even after the surgery, it is difficult to find traces of the thread on the eyelid.

When it is difficult to find the threads used in the previous surgery,

there is no need to go out of your way to find and remove them.

However, if the thread is visible through the eyelid skin,

or if the knot protrudes and forms a bump,

it is better to remove it.

Also, if the shape of the previous line is unnatural and you are changing the line,

or if you are lowering a high line, it is recommended to perform the surgery while removing the threads.

​

Today, we learned about thread removal during natural adhesion revision surgery.

I will be back with more informative content next time.
