Double Eyelid Surgery in Korea
“What is a Non-incisional Double Eyelid Surgery?”
Non-incisional double eyelid surgery creates a natural crease without any skin incisions. Instead, multiple micro holes are made along the desired double eyelid line, and a fine thread is carefully inserted and sutured through these points to form the fold. This technique offers significant advantages over the incisional method, including reduced swelling and a faster recovery period, making it an ideal option for patients seeking minimal downtime.

“What is an Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery? ”
Incisional double eyelid surgery involves a precise incision along the eyelid to remove excess fat and muscle, creating a well-defined and refined eye shape. As this technique requires greater surgical precision, selecting an experienced surgeon is essential to avoid potential complications such as visible scarring or an unnatural “sausage eye” appearance.
Incisional method is particularly well-suited for patients who require additional procedures such as ptosis correction or eye fat removal. It also offers a significant advantage in longevity, the double eyelid crease remains permanent over time.
