An in-out crease without excessive inner-corner exposure

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case discusses thin skin with some excess and a request for an outline crease. The writer describes choosing an incisional in-out design with upper-corner adjustment while considering existing caruncle exposure. Several follow-up views accompany the explanation that a preferred crease shape should be reconciled with the patient's anatomy.

Revising a depressed eyelid incision

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns skin coverage, crease asymmetry and an indented incision after previous eyelid surgery. The writer describes scar removal and adapting septal fixation to limit excessive crease depth. A seven-month comparison is presented, alongside acknowledgment that a gentler fixation concept can have a trade-off in crease strength and requires careful technique.

A limited lift for lower-face descent

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case discusses jowling when skin excess was judged insufficient to require a more extensive facelift. The writer describes liposuction and a limited-incision lift while distinguishing marionette-region descent from the multiple causes of nasolabial folds. The seven-day example supports a discussion of treatment selection, not comparative durability or a claim that lifting is risk-free.

Combining subbrow skin removal and crease formation

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

In this post, the writer announces a move to DA and discusses a reported case combining subbrow skin removal with a buried crease. The explanation separates removal of excess outer-lid skin from creation of the fold. It also acknowledges that direct upper-eyelid surgery remains appropriate in some patients rather than presenting the combination as a universal replacement.

Presenting individualized treatment for hollow upper lids

· Academic activity report · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This academic report describes a 2019 APS presentation on tailoring treatment to upper-eyelid hollowness. The writer connects volume loss with skin changes and possible opening difficulty, and refers to an earlier published paper. The emphasis is on choosing among approaches after assessment rather than using one procedure for every deep superior sulcus.

Six-month follow-up after eyelid revision

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported revision addresses unequal crease size and incomplete correction of a sleepy appearance. The writer describes assessing each side's opening strength, adjusting skin removal and adding upper-corner work. Follow-up extends to six months, and the text notes that contact lenses complicate photographic comparison. The credited technical paper belongs to the named mentors, not automatically to this author.

Under-eye shadows in a working patient

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns under-eye bulging and a hollow groove in a man in his early forties with little skin laxity. The writer describes transconjunctival fat treatment and repositioning, alongside the patient's concern about work absence. A four-day example is presented; it illustrates an individual recovery experience rather than a guaranteed return-to-work schedule.

Common questions about male eye-opening surgery

· Patient education · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

In this question-and-answer post, the writer separates crease formation from adjustment of eyelid-opening function. A male example accompanies discussion of optional corner surgery, swelling, activity and the changing visibility of a small crease. The post stresses that combined procedures are not automatically necessary, although its activity timelines remain historical advice rather than instructions for a new patient.

Following an incisional crease through six months

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case follows an existing natural crease becoming obscured by upper-lid skin. The writer describes septal-fixation crease surgery, credits the mentor who taught it and presents several postoperative intervals through six months. The account links technique choice to skin coverage while addressing concerns about swelling, prominent folds and visible incision marks.

Elastic-thread support with facial fat reduction

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns lower-face heaviness in a woman in her thirties whose skin excess was not judged to require excision. The writer describes liposuction with elastic-thread lifting and follows the appearance through two months. The discussion concerns selection and early contour change, rather than proof that threads substitute for a facelift in more advanced descent.

Negotiating an in-out crease design

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case began with a request for a large outline crease. The writer describes discussing skin thickness and coverage before selecting an in-out design with a buried crease, upper-corner adjustment and nonincisional eye-opening correction. The one-month account illustrates how a preferred appearance can be modified in response to examination rather than copied unchanged.

Revision after one buried crease loosened

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns asymmetry after a previous buried-suture crease weakened on one side. The writer considers forehead compensation, tissue characteristics and the preferred in-out shape when choosing an incisional revision. A one-month comparison accompanies the explanation that repeated use of the same technique may not address the reason a crease became unstable.
