Six months after male eye-opening surgery

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported male case combines excess upper-lid skin with reduced opening strength. The post describes an incisional crease and eye-opening procedure, then compares early appearance with six-month follow-up. It explains that a nearly hidden crease can still exist structurally and become less visible as surrounding skin settles, rather than implying that no crease was created.

How an eyelid crease forms

· Patient education · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

In this post, a schematic explanation describes the connection that allows eyelid skin to fold during eye opening. The writer relates the height and strength of that connection to crease appearance and discusses inline, in-out and outline preferences. An early case example accompanies the explanation, with emphasis on anatomy rather than a universally achievable crease shape.

A television filming experience about lifting

· Personal reflection · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This post recalls a television appearance filmed in winter 2019 and a participant concerned about facial aging. The writer describes consultation, facial liposuction and elastic-thread lifting in relation to the participant's work schedule. It is a personal account of a media-related case; the linked broadcast was not reviewed for this summary.

Male eyelid planning beyond a hidden crease

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

In this post, a male case illustrates why the preference for no visible crease should be discussed alongside skin thickness, skin coverage and opening strength. The reported plan combines an incision-based crease operation with eye-opening correction and corner adjustment. The writer cautions against choosing a nonincisional technique simply because its name seems less invasive.

Reducing an overfilled forehead contour

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case describes an overly projecting forehead after previous fat transfer, with a one-year comparison following corrective treatment. The writer discusses breaking up and aspirating excess grafted tissue through small access points. The stated goal is contour improvement rather than complete fat removal, and the post acknowledges that an additional session may sometimes be considered.

A widened chin after injected material

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns a broad, descending chin after an earlier injection of foreign material. The writer distinguishes this pattern from changes associated with bone reduction or altered muscle attachment and describes tailoring removal to the desired contour. The post acknowledges that further treatment can sometimes be needed rather than presenting every correction as a single procedure.

Reconstructing the outer eye corner

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case describes visible mucosa, scarring and lower-lid malposition after outer-corner surgery. The post discusses scar release and lateral canthal support, with a two-week comparison. It also separates cosmetic shape from function: dry-eye symptoms may persist despite a better contour, and reconstruction may change the apparent width or angle of the eye.

Teaching septal fixation at PRS Korea

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

In this conference report, the writer describes presenting a practical guide to septal-fixation crease surgery at PRS Korea in 2019. He explicitly credits Dr. Ahn as the teacher of the method and discusses both its intended appearance and the possibility of crease weakening. The account concerns surgical teaching, not a new comparative outcomes publication.

When brow descent covers an existing crease

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported middle-aged case describes a previously visible crease becoming covered as the brow and eyelid region descended. The writer discusses forehead effort, frowning and outer-lid irritation before describing endoscopic brow lifting. Early and one-month comparisons illustrate the reported response; the case does not establish that brow surgery is preferable for every heavy upper eyelid.

A three-month incisional eyelid review

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns a small natural crease obscured by skin and intermittent extra folds. The writer describes an incisional approach and discusses a three-month review, including scar visibility. He credits a mentor for the septal-fixation method and emphasizes matching technique to anatomy, rather than choosing an operation solely from its name.

Late swelling around a forehead implant

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case discusses a delayed fluid collection around a forehead silicone implant, illustrated with CT descriptions. The writer distinguishes possible conservative management from removal when problems recur and describes revising an existing scalp scar during removal. The account highlights the need to investigate swelling rather than treating it solely as a cosmetic contour issue.

A rounded chin after a silicone implant

· Case discussion · Dr. Moon’s personal blog

This reported case concerns a ball-like chin contour after silicone augmentation. The writer explains why implant removal alone might leave capsule-related distortion or displaced mentalis attachments, and describes addressing both in this patient. The post also acknowledges that the broad label used for chin deformity encompasses different anatomical problems and treatment needs.
