FAQ
Answers to frequently asked questions about incisional ptosis correction.
What is incisional ptosis correction?
Incisional ptosis correction uses a skin incision to strengthen the upper eyelid levator muscle, which opens the eyes. It improves the vertical eye opening and the amount of visible iris to create a more open, defined appearance.
How does incisional ptosis correction work?
An incision is made along the eyelid crease. The upper eyelid levator muscle is then tightened and sutured according to the amount of visible iris, strengthening the muscles that open the eyes.
Why does incisional ptosis correction require a skin incision?
A skin incision allows removal of fat and muscle within the eyelid as needed, and direct adjustment of the upper eyelid levator muscle that opens the eyes.
How is the upper eyelid levator muscle adjusted?
After addressing fat and muscle through the incision, the surgeon checks the visible iris and tightens and sutures the upper eyelid levator muscle. The eye-opening strength is adjusted to each person's eye condition.
Why is the amount of visible iris important?
The amount of visible iris is important to a defined, open-eyed appearance. Incisional correction considers facial harmony and visible iris when designing the eyelid crease height and shape and deciding how much to adjust the levator muscle.
Is incisional ptosis correction combined with incisional double eyelid surgery?
Yes. Incisional ptosis correction is performed together with incisional double eyelid surgery. After making an incision along the crease, the levator muscle is adjusted through the same incision to create the eyelid crease and correct ptosis together.
How does incisional ptosis correction change the eyes?
Strengthening the eye-opening muscles can make the eyes look more defined and open. It may also reduce the need to strain the eyes or forehead when opening the eyes, helping create a softer, more relaxed expression.
Can incisional ptosis correction also improve functional problems?
It may help improve secondary problems associated with ptosis, such as reduced vision or astigmatism symptoms, and forehead wrinkles caused by overusing the forehead muscles to open the eyes.
How long does incisional ptosis correction take, and what is the recovery process?
The operation takes about 1 hour under sedation or local anesthesia. You can go home the same day without an overnight stay. Stitches are generally removed 5–7 days after surgery, and daily activities are possible after stitch removal.
Do swelling and recovery time vary from person to person?
Yes. Swelling and recovery time can vary with the eye condition and extent of surgery. Bleeding or bruising may occur after surgery. JAYJUN Plastic Surgery helps reduce swelling and support a quick recovery through experienced surgeons and professional aftercare.
