The area around the eyes has the fewest sebaceous glands and the thinnest skin on the face, making it prone to aging earlier. As people age, the elasticity of the eyelids decreases, making the skin at the outer corners of the eyes more likely to sag downward. If left untreated, this can worsen glare and fatigue, and the eyelashes may press against the eyeball, potentially causing vision damage and requiring medical treatment.
On the 1st, star chef Son Jongwon, 42 years old, drew attention after appearing on Home & Deco Singapore’s social media with more defined eyes. In the interview video, he revealed a pronounced double-eyelid line, unlike his previously softer-looking eyes. Although it is difficult to determine accurately from the publicly released video alone whether Son Jongwon underwent double-eyelid surgery, many people took interest in his changed eye shape. Netizens reacted by saying, “He had such a handsome face, but did he get double-eyelid surgery?” “He looks generally swollen because he doesn’t seem to be in good condition,” and “Did he have surgery because his eyes were drooping?”
As people age, changes in the shape of the eyes often occur when the skin of the eyelids sags or ptosis, drooping eyelids, develops as the muscles that open the eyes weaken. If the upper eyelids cover the eyeballs, people tend to use their forehead muscles to open their eyes wider, making deep forehead wrinkles more likely to develop. When the eyelid opening narrows, it can create a stuffy appearance and lead to chronic eye fatigue and reduced vision, prompting people to consider correction.
When correcting drooping eyelids or ptosis, it is necessary to find an approach suited to the individual’s eye structure. If the skin is thin and sagging is limited, a nonincisional method that ties the tissue through tiny openings may be suitable. It offers quick recovery and a natural appearance. In contrast, if the eyelids are thick or the skin is severely loose, an incisional method is used. This method precisely trims excess skin and fat and strengthens the muscles that open the eyes, reducing the risk of the eyelid line becoming undone.
However, bruising or swelling may occur after cosmetic eye surgery or corrective surgery, and a hospital should be visited immediately if bleeding or a hematoma worsens. Side effects such as dry eye syndrome, outward turning of the eyelid, and scarring may occur, making care during recovery essential. If a person is taking anticoagulants such as aspirin, the medication should be discontinued for a certain period before surgery. Because it takes time for pain and swelling to completely subside and for the eyelid line to settle, it is advisable to allow sufficient time and monitor the recovery.
