Uneven Eyes Korea | Uneven Eye Correction
by Dr. Ahn Sung Min
Uneven eyes can result from natural facial asymmetry, ptosis, uneven double eyelids, previous surgery, or differences in eyebrow position. At Ahn Sung Min Plastic Surgery Clinic, Dr. Ahn Sung Min carefully analyzes the cause of the asymmetry before recommending the most appropriate treatment. The goal is to create balanced, natural-looking eyes
while preserving your unique facial features.

Mild facial asymmetry is normal, but noticeable differences between the eyes can affect facial balance and confidence.
Successful correction requires understanding the exact cause of the asymmetry rather than performing the same procedure on both eyes.
