7th Daegu Asia Oculoplastic Surgery Symposium: Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery Demonstration
Dr. Choi Dong-il presents on incisional double eyelid surgery and performs a live demonstration at the 7th Daegu Asia Oculoplastic Surgery Symposium.

I gave a presentation on the topic of incisional double eyelid surgery at the Oculoplastic Surgery Symposium held in Daegu.
The presentation took place over two days, April 18th and 19th, 2015.
On the first day, I presented at a hotel in Daegu, and on the following day, I performed a live surgery demonstration at a plastic surgery clinic in Daegu.

Taking questions from the audience.
I am joined by some close colleagues who also participated. I can see Director Shin, whom I mentioned in a previous post. ^^;;
The core focus of this presentation was on techniques to minimize scarring as much as possible.
Here is the beginning of the presentation slides.
The symposium program.
This was the schedule for the live surgery demonstration on the following day.
My name is written as ‘Dongil’ instead of ‘Dong-il,’ which makes it look a bit like ‘Dong-gil’ (Road to Money).
Usually, the design is mapped out like this before proceeding with the surgery. ^^
