Double eyelid repair

Eyes are the windows to everyone's soul. Everyone wants their "window" to be big and bright. Therefore, people who are born with small eyes will choose double eyelid repair surgery to make their eyes look more beautiful. The repair of double eyelid flesh stripes is actually what we commonly call double eyelid surgery. However, some friends who underwent double eyelid repair surgery found that sausage eyes appeared after the surgery. What is the reason for this?

How to repair double eyelid flesh stripes? The main reason for the appearance of double eyelid fat strips is that the doctor does not control the amount of upper eyelid fat removed during the double eyelid surgery, or does not thin and remove the excess orbicularis oculi muscle, causing hypertrophy and accumulation of the orbicularis oculi muscle in the upper eyelid. The main symptom is that after one month after the double eyelid surgery, the swelling basically subsides, but half a year after the surgery, the double eyelids are still very swollen like a caterpillar. In this case, it is recommended to go to the hospital for double eyelid repair surgery, as the name suggests, to do it again. Before double eyelid repair, the position of the double eyelid line will be re-determined, the adhesion tissue of the previous double eyelid line suture will be loosened and removed, and then the excess tissue in front of the tarsal plate will be removed according to the existing situation, to solve the fleshy strip problem in a targeted manner and eliminate sausage eyes. Note: Depending on individual response, if the skin and soft tissue are not fully healed after six months, surgery can be performed in 1-3 months.

The reasons for sausage eyes after surgery include: unprofessional doctors

The tissue involved in double eyelid surgery is the most delicate part compared to other facial features, so the doctor must have a precise understanding of the anatomical layers of the eye during the operation. During the operation, if an unprofessional surgeon performs the surgery, more or less soft tissue of the eye may be removed, resulting in failure of double eyelid surgery.

The causes of sausage eyes after surgery include: severe soft tissue damage

Because the doctor does not understand the eye condition well enough or is not familiar with the entire double eyelid surgery, it causes excessive soft tissue damage, increased bleeding, and poor local blood circulation, which will lead to sausage eyes.

The causes of sausage eyes after surgery include: loose upper eyelid skin and improper treatment

Because the skin of the upper eyelid is relatively loose, but too little skin is removed, and the skin is sutured too low when sutured to the levator palpebrae superioris muscle, the loose skin is piled up together, forming strips of flesh.

Causes of sausage eyes after surgery include: fat and orbicularis oculi hypertrophy

Because the doctor did not properly handle and remove the hypertrophic orbicularis oculi muscle and fat during the operation, the fat and orbicularis oculi muscle accumulated together, resulting in the formation of flesh strips after double eyelid surgery.

The causes of sausage eyes after surgery include:

The width of the double eyelid is usually around 6-8mm when designed before the operation. Depending on the distance between each person's eyebrows and eyes, if the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is close, the width of the double eyelid is larger, then the double eyelid line may be higher, causing the brow arch to press on the double eyelid line, pressing the entire double eyelid downwards and piling up the tissues, resulting in an obvious fleshy strip reaction.

Is it difficult to repair double eyelids?

For example: a tailor designs and tailors a piece of cloth, but when the clothes come out, he finds that some places are not done well, and the whole thing looks very ugly. The customer only has the last piece of cloth selected, so the tailor has no choice but to make modifications based on the current one. The same is true for double eyelid repair surgery. The first time is relatively simple because the second time the surgery is performed based on your current condition. Part of the soft tissue had already been removed the first time, so performing surgery on this basis would definitely be more difficult than before.
