Hello,

This is Inique.

Recently, a growing number of high-quality cosmetics from domestic brands have been introduced to the point that many foreigners are seeking them out.

As interest in beauty continues to rise, more people are turning to cosmetics, skincare, exercise, and other forms of care in an effort to look better. Among them, plastic surgery, which can bring the clearest and fastest changes in a short period of time, is also widely sought after.

Among these, we would like to look into eye plastic surgery, which is what many people are most interested in.

Do you know about ptosis, where you open your eyes by using the strength of your forehead, causing forehead wrinkles and making you look tired?

Today, we will take a detailed look at Inique’s eye correction surgery, which can improve drooping eyelids by addressing ptosis.

Because of the name eye correction surgery, many people think it is a procedure to make the eye shape more attractive or to correct asymmetrical eyes.

However, eye correction surgery is the same procedure as ptosis correction; only the name is different.

Ptosis refers to 'a condition where drooping eyelids block the field of vision.'

Normally, when opening the eyes, the pupil is covered by about 1–2 mm from above. When the muscles used to open the eyes are weak, the pupil becomes covered by more than 2 mm. As a result, the eyes are covered by the eyelids, creating a tired-looking impression.

Ptosis is not only an external issue, but can also cause everyday inconvenience such as vision problems and eyelashes repeatedly poking the eyes. Because forehead wrinkles can also form easily, we recommend surgery to improve drooping eyelids and correct ptosis.

Our eyes are opened by a muscle called the levator palpebrae superioris. This muscle is connected to a tendon-like fascia in the eye and reaches the eyelid. It also works together with a very thin muscle called the Müller muscle to open the eyes. By shortening this tendon fascia and the Müller muscle, we reinforce the force used to open the eyes, thereby improving drooping eyelids.

Inique’s eye correction surgery is performed using both non-incision and incision methods.

In the case of non-incision eye correction, it is a procedure that does not involve cutting and is similar to the buried suture method for double eyelids.

This procedure uses thread to enter the Müller muscle, catch the tendon, and tie a knot. Depending on the amount shortened, the degree to which the eyelid rises will differ.

If shortened by 8 mm, the eye rises by about 1 mm. 10 mm -> 2 mm 12 mm -> 2.5 mm These are approximate calculations, and when there is asymmetry between the two eyes, we improve drooping eyelids by adjusting the amount shortened according to each eye.

First, because the fixation points are made densely, a smooth, non-loosening line can be achieved. Also, since the procedure is performed without incision, there is almost no scar or swelling, which makes recovery fast—this is the biggest advantage.
