A surgery that incises the eyelid skin to remove excess skin, muscle, and fat, then sutures to the tarsal plate to create a permanent double eyelid fold.
Overview
The incision method cuts the eyelid skin along a designed line to remove excess skin, orbicularis muscle, and orbital fat, then directly sutures the skin to the tarsal plate (levator aponeurosis) to form a permanent adhesion. It is suitable for patients with thick skin, excess fat, or drooping. Results are more permanent and defined than the non-incision method, but recovery is longer.
Mechanism
The surgeon incises along the pre-marked crease line, excises excess skin, orbicularis muscle, and protruding orbital fat as needed, then directly sutures the skin edge to the tarsal plate or levator aponeurosis. This creates a strong, direct adhesion between the skin and underlying structure. The resulting scar within the fold line becomes the permanent double eyelid crease.
Effects
Permanent and well-defined double eyelid fold, removal of excess eyelid skin and fat, brighter and more open eye appearance, improved eyelid heaviness, and customizable fold height and shape.
Duration
Permanent; very low risk of fold loosening compared to non-incision method
Recovery
Swelling peaks at 3-5 days. Significant swelling for 1-2 weeks. Stitches removed at 5-7 days. Makeup possible after stitch removal. Residual swelling gradually resolves over 1-3 months. Final natural appearance at 3-6 months.
Side Effects
Temporary significant swelling and bruising. Visible scar (hidden in fold). Risk of asymmetry, over-correction (fold too high), under-correction, scar contracture, dry eyes, and prolonged swelling. More invasive than non-incision with longer recovery.
Price Range
800,000-2,000,000 KRW
Target Audience
Those with thick or puffy eyelids, excess eyelid skin, those wanting permanent double eyelid creation, and those requiring simultaneous fat or skin removal.
