Ah I didn't even know this existed. Thanks so much! I think I will wait a while to see if it recovers through. This really sucks >< It seems like a rare problem. I do recall the doctor being very aggressive (during surgery) on the eye that I can't close T_T

Oh no D: how long ago did you get it done?

 

Could you please direct me to these sites? I'm really reluctant to go get revision.. what if the doctor screw it up even more? I didn't mention in my post but I already got revision one week after ptosis correction because the eyelids were uneven -.- I don't really want them to screw up more =/

also @Hikaribelle, what part of the skin aren't you happy about?

 

Just wondering if anyone have Lagophthalmos (or inability to close your eyelid completely) after double eyelid surgery? Here's an example of what it looks like: https://www.realself.com/question/close-eyes-fully-after-asian-eyelid-surgery

Personally, it's been 3-4 months now but one of my eye cannot fully close (like the picture). I'm really scared now. Anyone else share tips on resolutions to this? Doctors on realself said it should heal after 6 months but I've seen minimal improvements in 3 months.

Am I screwed? One eye is completely fine and the other isn't!!!! This is a disaster T_T I want to cry

Edit: On close up inspection, BOTH eyes have it. The gap in the other eye is tiny through.

 

This is interesting! Thanks for the review

 

I got the following quote from REGEN:

Incision double eyelid with ptosis correction : 3.3 million KRW
Lateral canthoplasty : 1.65 million KRW
Rhinoplasty: 6.05 mil KRW

The last one seems a bit pricey....actually all of it seem pricey T_T

Also, if anyone know anyone or themselves have undertaken surgery at REGEN, please let me know!

 

Is it possible to request to be put under sedation? I have the same fear!

 

Thank you so much for this thread! I found it super helpful. Does anyone, by any chance have had something done at REGEN (or know of someone that did)? May I borrow your name for bargaining purposes? hhaha XD

 

Hello everyone, I'm going to Korea this december, is anyone else there?
Maybe we could chat about our surgery experiences !
