Ms. Wang of Shandong has always been dissatisfied with her single eyelid. Under the introduction of a friend, she went to a medical beauty company to cut her double eyelids and spent more than 6000 yuan.
But after cutting her double eyelids, Ms. Wang felt that something was wrong. Her right eye became a triple eyelid, and her left eye was not a double eyelid, but two and a half eyelids. Moreover, Ms. Wang also found that her left and right eyes were everted, and her eyes were prone to water when washing her face.
Ms. Wang angrily rushed to the medical beauty company that cut double eyelids and wanted to discuss it. Unexpectedly, the medical beauty company rejected Ms. Wang's claim for compensation on the grounds that "everyone's aesthetics are different."
I don't know when double eyelids became popular among young people. Many people who are at the forefront of fashion have made "European double eyelids" for themselves. People with single eyelids feel wronged. Obviously, the single eyelid is also beautiful. Why did the aesthetic trend become double eyelids?
In Asia, people's love for double eyelids almost completely crushed the single eyelid. In South Korea, where cosmetic surgery is developed, the most popular thing is to cut double eyelids. Parents will take their children to have their eyelids cut as a gift or reward when they are 18 years old or admitted to college.
Some people think that it is human instinct to like double eyelids. Some people think that the double eyelid trend is influenced by the aesthetic trend in Europe and America, which is related to race and power. Judging from the history of double eyelid plastic surgery, the popularity of double eyelids is indeed inseparable from the aesthetic hegemony of white people.
/kloc-In the 9th century, China people went to the United States for gold, but they were laughed at by white people for squinting and narrowing their eyes. They associate China people's faces with negative characters such as treachery, cunning and eccentricity, and even extend this prejudice to other Asians, including Japanese and Koreans.
65438+In 1960s, Japan opened its doors to learn advanced western concepts and technologies. However, the "East Asian face" is like a curse, which hinders their progress in western countries.
At that time, an American doctor living in Japan cut a double eyelid surgery for a Japanese who was eager to get rid of his double eyelids, and also appeared in the Los Angeles Times. At that time, the Los Angeles Times reported: "In the process of trying to gain recognition from the civilized world, the Japanese found their biggest obstacle."
1926 Che double eyelid surgery appeared in the United States because a Japanese boy fell in love with an American girl, but was opposed by her family. In order to get married with his beloved girl, the Japanese boy chose to compromise, made a double eyelid surgery and got a rhinoplasty.
In the 20th century, wars continued, and many soldiers were disfigured in the war. During the Korean War, an American military plastic surgeon, David Mi Leide, was sent to South Korea to provide repair surgery for injured soldiers and children with birth defects.
At the same time, he is also thinking about how to make the eyes of Asians more "westernized". A Korean translator worried that his narrow eyes would affect his career, so he found David Mi Leide and asked him to cut his double eyelids to make his eyes look bigger and more like a westerner.
David Mi Leide readily agreed, not only cut his double eyelids, but also raised his nose. The operation was so successful that others later thought that the translator was Italian or Mexican.
Since then, David Mi Leide has made double eyelid surgery for many "needy" people, laying the foundation for Seoul to become a global plastic surgery shrine. Shortly after David Mi Leide left, 196 1, the first plastic surgery hospital in Korea opened, and double eyelid surgery gradually became popular in Asia.
However, the original intention of modern people to cut double eyelids is no longer to mainly consider the aesthetics of white people as before, but simply to make themselves look better and more confident.
However, from another perspective, many people who cut double eyelids are actually anxious about their appearance, and only when they are dissatisfied with their appearance will they have the idea of plastic surgery.
Everyone wants to be better. There is nothing wrong with loving beauty, but be careful when cutting double eyelids. Because in recent years, medical accidents in the United States have emerged in an endless stream, and there have been many examples of double eyelid surgery's failure, leaving many security risks, such as:
1. Affect vision
The visual system of upper eyelid, lower eyelid and eye are three relatively independent parts and anatomical and physiological structures. After double eyelids are cut, if you use your eyes too much during the recovery period, your vision will easily decline.
2. Eyelid closure dysfunction
If the doctor cuts off too much eye skin, or the double eyelid line is suspended too high at the levator palpebrae superioris muscle, it will lead to insufficient eyelids.
3. Upper eyelid drooping
When I was doing double eyelid surgery, due to technical problems or rough movements, my upper eyelid muscles were damaged, which led to eye complications and ptosis.
4. Excessive depression of upper eyelid
In the process of double eyelid surgery, too much eyelid tissue resection, fascia tissue adhesion and levator palpebrae aponeurosis injury will lead to excessive depression of the upper eyelid.
5. Asymmetry between left and right eyes
Although most doctors repeatedly determine the length and height of the incision line in order to make their eyes symmetrical when doing double eyelid surgery, there may be bilateral inconsistency after operation due to local swelling, which will affect the surgical effect.
Therefore, cutting double eyelids is not 100% successful. Be careful, choose a regular medical institution, don't be greedy and cheap, and don't believe in advertisements.
Xiao Haitao, an associate professor of cosmetic surgery and burn surgery in Huaxi Hospital, reminded that there are many misunderstandings in double eyelid incision. At present, there are three mainstream surgical methods: thread embedding, partial incision and total incision. Beauty lovers want to try it, but I haven't heard that it is a new technology. What kind of surgery should be used to communicate with doctors in regular hospitals.
Besides, don't have unrealistic ideas such as "My double eyelids are unnatural", "My left and right double eyelids are asymmetrical", "I don't want to swell my eyelids", "I want to lift my eyelids" and "I want to lift my muscles".
Asians have different facial structures from Europeans and Americans, and everyone's left and right eyelids will not be exactly the same. If you can pursue the perfect result, you are likely to "roll over".
In addition, you should pay attention to being a double eyelid surgery: Don't be too young. I suggest you wait until you 17 years old. There are risks in double eyelid surgery, so we must choose regular medical institutions and doctors.
Some people are born with a single eyelid, but they are afraid of being a double eyelid surgery and risks, so they choose to use a double eyelid patch. However, it should be noted that sticking double eyelids for a long time may lead to drooping eyelids.
Because in the process of removing the double eyelid patch, the eyelid will be pulled, and over time, the elastic fibers of the dermis will be damaged, resulting in drooping eyelids. If you must use the double eyelid patch, you can wet it with makeup remover or cleansing oil when you take it off, and don't pull it.
