Non-incisional Eye Correction: Important Points for Success!

Hello, this is Inek Plastic Surgery.

People tend to be very interested in the eyes, which have a major impact on the overall mood of the face.

In particular, as people have worn masks because of COVID-19, more attention has been focused on the eyes, which are the first feature seen on the face.

Because of this, people even imagine a person’s overall impression just by looking at the eyes.

As a result, people have come to want larger and more defined eyes, and interest in plastic surgery or eye correction has increased significantly.

In today’s post, we will talk about eye correction, another way to design the eyes you want, even if plastic surgery feels burdensome.

First, the levator palpebrae superioris and Müller’s muscle are the two muscles that play important roles in opening the eyes.

Eye correction improves the strength used to open the eyes by shortening these two muscles or tendons after tying them.

Usually, this is a correction procedure often chosen by people whose eyelid-lifting force is weak, or who worry about looking heavy-eyed or sleepy.

The cause of looking sleepy is also related to "ptosis."

Ptosis refers to a condition in which the eyelid droops and blocks the field of vision. When the eyelid covers more than 2 mm of the black pupil, it can make the eyes look sleepy to others.

That is why people around you may often say you look sleepy or dazed.

In addition, when opening your eyes yourself, you may feel tension in your forehead, and difficulty seeing clearly while looking ahead is also a symptom caused by ptosis. These kinds of discomfort can also be addressed through eye correction.

Eye correction is divided into non-incisional eye correction and incisional eye correction depending on the technical method.

Among them, non-incisional eye correction shortens Müller’s muscle by tying it using the buried-suture method without an incision, so the surgery time is short.

In addition, because the recovery period after eye correction is also short, it is a correction method with high patient satisfaction.

However, because it is eye correction rather than surgery, many people worry that the correction may loosen over time. To prevent this, Inek creates a dense number of fixation points during eye correction, producing a line that does not loosen over time.

Above all, because there is no incision, there is less concern about bleeding or swelling, and there is the advantage of no scarring.

Non-incisional eye correction can improve the eyes to look clear and natural through correction alone!

However, because it is seen as a relatively simple correction compared to surgery, there are people who look only for clinics that are geographically close or lower in cost rather than those with skill.

However, if non-incisional eye correction is performed at a place that is not properly skilled, there is a risk that the corrected area may loosen over time, requiring a second correction, or that too many points, or points that do not match your eyes, may lead to results different from what you expected.

Therefore, when choosing a clinic for non-incisional eye correction, it is important to check not only years of experience in eye surgery, but also the specialized expertise unique to that clinic.

Inek Plastic Surgery has performed more than 5,000 eye surgeries and revision surgeries, and by proposing eye designs suited to each patient as well as designs appropriate for the overall mood of the face, it helps deliver satisfaction with the eyes after correction.

Today, we took a look at non-incisional eye correction.
