Double Eyelid Surgery

Many people think eyelid surgery is 

the most common and simple surgery among various plastic surgeries, 

but you must make a decision seriously before surgery 

since eyes play a critical role for making your impression.

Today we are talking about double eyelid surgery.

◎Thin Eyelids◎

In case of thin eyelids, procedure can be performed 

by pinching the muscles with thread instead of making an incision on eyelid skin. 

Non-incisional method is suitable for such type of eyes.

◎Thick Eyelids◎

If upper eyelid consist excess fat, thick skin, or over-developed muscle, 

eyes may look puffy or swollen. 

Full-incisional or partial-incisional double eyelid surgery is suitable 

for patients with such condition.

 ◎Small Eyes◎

The vertical width of eyes can be extended by double eyelid surgery only.

However, inner corner fold removal or outer corner extension 

should be performed with double eyelid surgery 

to extend the horizontal width of eyes.

◎Wide Distance between Eyes◎

Mongolian fold covering inner corner of eyes may cause 

small appearance and wide distance between eyes.

In this case, inner corner fold removal with double eyelid surgery 

can be performed to improve the condition.

◎Sleepy Eyes◎

Sleepy eyes are due to ptosis in most cases. 

Ptosis is abnormal low-lying upper eyelid margin with eyes in primary gaze. 

Normally, upper eyelid covers 1-2 mm of the superior part of pupil. 

Ptosis can be corrected by shortening levator muscle 

with incision along the inner surface of eyelid or eyelid crease.

◎Wrinkled Lower Eyelids◎

Bulging lower eyelids with fat and loose or wrinkly skin need 

fat repositioning surgery.

 Incision is made under lower eyelid, and remaining fat is repositioned 

in a broader area with excess fat removal. 

Wrinkle removal with slight skin incision can be performed as well 

if there are saggy wrinkles beneath lower eyelids.

◎Droopy or Slanted Eyes◎

For moderately droopy or slanted eyes, raising or lowering the outer crease line 

during double eyelids surgery can easily correct the shape of eyes. 

But for severe cases, procedures such as Lateral hotz 

by cutting the lateral end of eyes to correctly place the shape of eyes 

should be considered.

◎Asymmetrical Eyes◎

Most people have some degree of asymmetrical eyes.

But for severe condition, 

it should be corrected with double eyelid surgery.
