Double Eyelid Side Effects: Safe Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery
Dr. Choi of Gangnam Seoyeon Plastic Surgery presents on safe incisional double eyelid surgery techniques to prevent side effects and the need for revision surgery.

Double Eyelid Side Effects: Safe Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery
Yesterday (October 9, 2018), I gave a presentation at an academic conference regarding safe double eyelid surgery methods to prevent side effects. It was a presentation for the Korean Association of Plastic Surgeons (KAPS).

While performing revision double eyelid surgery well is important, it is even more crucial to perform the initial surgery in a way that avoids the need for a second procedure. Therefore, the lecture focused on methods to prevent such outcomes.
Since the lecture was centered around videos, I tried to make the slides engaging as well.

I also lectured on how to improve these types of thick, puffy eyes.


My name tag... the photo is quite something. I don’t actually look like that in real life.

And here is the certificate of appreciation!
