Sinsa-dong Plastic Surgery: Causes and Solutions for Severe Multiple Eyelid Folds
Learn about the causes and surgical solutions for severe multiple eyelid folds, often referred to as ‘extreme eyes,’ at Gangnam Seoyeon Plastic Surgery.
Please take a look at the before and after photos first.
These are often referred to as ‘extreme eyes.’
Let’s take some time to learn about severe multiple eyelid folds.
What exactly are multiple eyelid folds?
Unintended creases that form above the main double eyelid line.
Why do these multiple folds occur?
They often occur due to adhesions forming after revision surgeries, such as the ‘two-line release’ (lowering the fold) or ptosis correction reversal!
Then, is surgery to improve severe multiple folds only for patients who had two-line releases or reversal surgeries?
Not at all!
It can also be performed for those with congenital multiple folds,
or in cases where the skin is thin and there is very little underlying tissue.
Additionally, those whose double eyelids have unraveled because their ptosis correction loosened are also candidates for this surgery!
You might be worried about the timing of the surgery.
Generally, revision surgery is performed after 6 months, once the hard scar tissue has softened.
However, if the symptoms are very severe and cause side effects that interfere with daily life, revision surgery can be performed regardless of the timing.
As you can see from the photo above,
there are more disadvantages than advantages.
First of all, having multiple lines is aesthetically unpleasing.
The bigger problem is...
functional side effects.
It can even make the simple act of opening your eyes feel heavy and burdensome.
It is said that these discomforts can be resolved at Gangnam Seoyeon!
Dr. Choi Dong-il of Gangnam Seoyeon
is a board-certified plastic surgeon with 20 years of experience
and has extensive experience in successfully performing ‘extreme eye’ surgeries.
This is different from a reputation built only on words without review photos.
We prove it with results.
Everyone reading this post would have been able to verify his skills through the top photo!
I will also insert a YouTube link at the bottom, so watching it will give you even more confidence.
So, what is the solution?
Step 01: Thoroughly and cleanly release the adhesions.
Step 02: To prevent re-adhesion, fill the areas where adhesions might occur with normal tissue or clean fat tissue!
Step 03: If there is a lack of volume, fat grafting may be necessary.
However!
Fat grafting is only occasionally needed; in most cases, it is not required.
Ptosis correction is also only occasionally needed; in most cases, it is not required.
How about it?
Has your curiosity been satisfied?
At Gangnam Seoyeon, we minimize tissue damage through
customized designs that consider the shape and condition of the eyes and the entire face,
along with thorough planning and delicate surgical techniques!
Because we cannot miss out on both the functional and aesthetic aspects!
Finally, I will leave a helpful YouTube link for your reference!

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do severe multiple eyelid folds occur?
They primarily occur due to adhesions forming after revision eyelid surgery. In addition to adhesions after double eyelid surgery or retraction surgery, severe multiple eyelid folds can also occur in cases of congenital multiple folds, thin skin with insufficient tissue, or when ptosis correction loosens.
When is the best time for revision surgery for multiple eyelid folds?
It is generally recommended to proceed after 6 months, when the hard scar tissue has softened. However, if the symptoms are very severe to the point of making it difficult to open the eyes and causing significant daily life inconvenience, revision surgery can be performed regardless of the timing, even if 6 months have not passed.
What problems can arise if severe multiple eyelid folds are left untreated?
Not only cosmetic problems but also functional side effects can occur. Multiple lines create an undesirable appearance, and as symptoms worsen, it can even make opening the eyes difficult, leading to significant discomfort in daily life.
How is surgery to improve multiple eyelid folds performed?
It begins with the process of meticulously dissecting the adhered area. Afterwards, the area is filled with normal tissue or clean fat tissue to prevent re-adhesion. In cases of severe volume deficiency, fat grafting may occasionally be additionally required.
Are fat grafting or ptosis correction always necessary during surgery?
No, they are not necessary in most cases. Fat grafting is only occasionally needed when there is a severe lack of volume, and ptosis correction may also be occasionally necessary depending on the patient's condition, but it is not an essential procedure. Only necessary surgeries will be performed after an accurate diagnosis by a specialist.
