What Is the Secret to Creating Natural-looking Double Eyelids?

Hello, this is Inique Plastic Surgery.

Among the patients who visit Inique, regardless of age or gender, the area that most often causes concern is one’s ‘eyes,’ which determine a person’s first impression.

Looking at Inique’s surgical history alone, we perform more than 1,000 eye surgeries and revision surgeries per year, which shows that many people are very interested in eye surgery, especially double eyelid surgery.

However, rather than simply creating double eyelids, many people worry about how to make them inconspicuous and natural.

So how should double eyelid surgery be performed to achieve the most natural-looking eyes?

First, the size of the double eyelids.

The size of the double eyelids should not be chosen with blind greed; instead, surgery should be performed by setting the upper limit of the most natural height within the patient’s original eye shape.

If, due to excessive desire from the patient, the eyelid line exceeds the upper limit suitable for that person’s eyes, there is a higher risk of side effects such as the so-called “sausage eye.”

On the other hand, if the double eyelid size is too small, it may turn into a hidden double eyelid, which can lead to lower satisfaction with the results after surgery.

Deciding on an appropriate double eyelid size that suits your eyes is the first step in natural-looking double eyelid surgery.

Second, the depth of the double eyelid.

The proper depth of a double eyelid that suits your eyes appears later as the result of a natural-looking line.

If it is fixed too high, it can become a double eyelid design that looks pinched, and if it is fixed too low, it may have side effects such as loosening quickly or causing the skin to sag.

As a result, it can become one of the factors that later leads to concerns about revision double eyelid surgery.

That is why, at Inique, a specialist in eye surgery, we use a surgical method developed through years of experience to create a double eyelid line through triple fixation. Because it creates a naturally formed line and is less likely to loosen, it has the advantage of lasting longer than general surgery.

What does triple fixation mean?

In the case of the eyes, the front starting point of the double eyelid is the part that most easily loosens after surgery, so this means tying the starting point simultaneously to the tarsus and the ends of the levator aponeurosis.

The last and third method for natural-looking double eyelid surgery is to create a natural design that suits my eyes.

However, because each person has different factors such as skin, tissue, and eye condition, the skin crease that serves as a guideline for double eyelid surgery (Natural skin crease) also differs.

Therefore, when designing double eyelids, it should not be done with the same design in every case. All surgical environmental factors must be considered, and the design should follow one’s own skin crease in order to create natural-looking double eyelids with minimal visible surgical traces.

The eyes are a three-dimensional structure. That is why the three points mentioned today— the size of the double eyelids, the depth of the fixation points, and the design— must all be satisfied in order to reduce side effects after double eyelid surgery and complete natural-looking double eyelids.

Today, together with Inique, we looked into how to create natural-looking double eyelids.
