Thank You Ssul (Story)
Hello, I'm Dr. Kim Hyung-seok from Thank You Plastic Surgery
In today's Thank You Ssul
We'll talk about exophthalmos and enophthalmos
Thank You Ssul 01. Which
Which eyes are exophthalmos and which eyes are enophthalmos?
In fact, clinically it's not important
if it's over 12mm or if it exceeds 15mm
Instead, depending on the condition of the skin on the eyelid, the ability to open the eyes, and the shape of the double eyelid desired
So it is recommended to get the design of the procedure
to fit the bulging or sunken of the eyes
People usually think enophthalmos eyes
are harder to create Asian blepharoplasty
But let's take foreigners as an example
(↑Face of a Westerner) In the case of a foreigner whose eyes are quite sunken
The eyes are very deep compared to the brow bone
However, the eyelid skin itself is extremely thin
Even though their eyes are quite deep the lines of eyes are defined
Which could also make their eyes look bigger
Rather than thinking that 'just because the eyes are sunken, the eyes will be unconditionally small'
Instead, through the line design that fits the degree of depression of the eyes, skin thickness, and width of the eyes
you can proceed with a procedure that is tailored to you
Firstly, is it exophthalmos or enophthalmos
And to know which lines suits one's eyes
We'll take a look at which eyes are exophthalmos
To make it easier to understand let's look at some
pictures of celebrities together
Thank You Ssul 02. Who is the representative celebrity?
Shin Se-kyung and Son Ye-jin are representative celebrities for enophthalmos
Both actresses have slightly sunken eyes
compare to their brows
But it's definitely pretty and also gives that deep look
And for the representative of the exophthalmos
There is Han Ye-seul and Jo Bo-ah
These two have big gorgeous eyes
All four are neither extreme exophthalmos nor extreme enophthalmos
Because they have beautiful eyes that matches their eyebrow bone structure,
skin thickness, and eye-opening strength
I think that's why they are considered the most representative celebrities
In the case of Minji of New Jeans
With slightly deep eyes
She has oriental and charming eyes
In the case of Haerin of New Jeans
She has large eyes with a slight bulging
Thank You Ssul 03. I have exophthalmos
If I have exophthalmos
Then which line would suit the eyes?
As for the bulging eyes, the eye itself protrudes compared to the brow bone
As the eyelid skin stretches
The fat around the eye is also pushed towards the back
A fairly large amount of line can be visible even if only a slight thin line is made
Especially in case of eye correction procedure with Asian blepharoplasty
caution is necessary
There can be a tendency of sleeping with the eyes open in case of exophthalmos
so if excessive eye correction is performed on people who sleep with their eyes open,
It can increase the rate of the symptoms of it
Therefore, even if you feel like your eyes are opening right after the surgery,
if your eyes don't open more than 3mm,
there is no need to be worried too much because most will recover
but excessive correction or unnecessary skin excision during the surgery
should be avoided
Thank You Ssul 04. I have enophthalmos
And for enophthalmos, when you get too greedy with the lines
the eyelid lines could look a little wrinkled
when the depth of the eyes is deep, compared to the eyebrow bone,
eyelid skin has more power of pressing down
making the shape of the eyelid more squared shape
There for, in the case of enophthalmos
Rather than a high outline, lines starting not too high,
such as in-out line and in lines would suit better
And skin removal is often unnecessary with exophthalmos
So non-incisional surgery can be adequate most times,
but in the case of sunken eyes, there may be a need for skin tissue incisions,
removal of fat tissue, or a more sturdy form of fixation,
so the incisional method can be more suitable
Thank You Ssul 05. This is how you design a line
When in protruding eyes, if you set the line too big,
you may feel like the line gets bigger over time,
this is because
protruding eyes’ eyelid skin tends to get thinner, making the upper eyes sink in slightly
and giving the impression that the line is getting bigger
Therefore, line becoming thinner over time,
is a bias that you believe and setting lines too high in the beginning,
is not the best choice for exophthalmos
On the other hand, in the case of enophthalmos, the eye itself is deep,
and can feel like the lines are being covered by the eyelid,
setting the line slightly higher is better,
but if the line is too high
line itself takes up too much space
and can cause eyelid tissue between the eyebrows and the line
a bulging sensation and can feel awkward
Therefore, it is necessary to get an accurate design that is suited to your tissues
and the protrusion level of your eyes
Thank You Ssul 06. Tips
And what's important with being exophthalmos
or enophthalmos is if you have a slightly bulging eyes
it is recommended to bring a reference photo of the eye with a similar protrusion
By trying to copy someone with exophthalmos when you enophthalmos
can cause unnatural looking results
And for someone with slight bulging
by trying to follow the deep eyes
can make it look unnatural
Look for eyes that match exophthalmos
And with both suitable design and surgery
You can get satisfactory results
So, therefore, you don't have to have such preconceived idea
that exophthalmos is good while enophthalmos isn't
