Hello, this is Ainic, a specialist in eye plastic surgery at Apgujeong Plastic Surgery Clinic.
Have you ever felt, while walking around the Apgujeong area, that your confidence somehow goes up?
That street seems to give off the feeling that my mood has changed!
Perhaps that is why you often hear people saying these days,
"Apgujeong Plastic Surgery Clinic is famous for a reason."

Of course, it is not right to visit simply because of regional fame alone.
But when you listen to people who have had consultations there,
many say they get a feeling that the atmosphere, the consultation process, and the careful details are distinctly "different."
Today, let’s look into why Apgujeong is so well known
and why word of mouth about it keeps spreading.

In the past, plastic surgery was often seen as burdensome and not easily approachable,
but these days, as relatively simple and various types of procedures have become more common,
more and more people are deciding to undergo them for the purpose of improving their appearance and regaining confidence.
Among them, eye procedures such as double eyelid surgery and epicanthoplasty are especially popular.

As medical technology has continued to advance,
eye surgery methods have also evolved,
and the range of choices available to each person has become wider.
Today, at Ainic, Apgujeong Plastic Surgery Clinic,
for those considering eye surgery,
we will provide guidance on double eyelid surgery
as well as epicanthoplasty, which can be good to perform together.

Ainic’s double eyelid surgery
is not only about creating larger, clearer eyes;
we also place importance on considering each person’s
different facial structure and overall image
to find the most natural type and design
that will suit them best.
For this, thorough consultation and a detailed, systematic plan are important.

The main types of double eyelid surgery performed at Ainic
can be broadly divided into three:
Smooth Incision Method, High-Density Buried Suture Method,
and Fat Removal Buried Suture Method.

The first method, the Smooth Incision Method,
is Ainic’s proprietary technology
that has received a trademark application from the Korean Intellectual Property Office.
This is a double eyelid surgery method performed with an incision,
and considering the characteristics of the front, middle, and back parts of the eye,
the points are fixed at an appropriate depth.
Among these, the front part of the eye,
which is known to have the highest chance of loosening,
is securely fixed in three layers,
significantly reducing the possibility of it coming undone.
Because the number of fixation points is also high,
it can reduce an unnatural look
and create a smooth, natural result.

The second is the high-density buried suture method
at Apgujeong Plastic Surgery Clinic.
This method works by creating adhesion points for fixation.
The method commonly described as "pinning the double eyelid"
is the buried suture method.
Apgujeong Plastic Surgery Clinic’s buried suture method
is designed with 10-point fixation,
considering the characteristics of this method, which can loosen easily,
and it can reduce scarring,
offering the advantage of a faster recovery even after surgery.
The buried suture method is mainly recommended
for people with thin eyelid skin or little fat.

Depending on the person, some naturally have more fat in the eyes.
In such cases, due to the thicker fat,
even if double eyelid surgery is performed,
the result may not be clearly defined
or may loosen easily.
In these cases, the existing high-density buried suture method
is combined with fat removal.
By removing the fat above the eyes,
there is the advantage of achieving a refreshing and clear line.

If you have had double eyelid surgery
but the epicanthic fold makes your eye shape look tight,
another option is to combine it with mini inner corner opening.
Mini inner corner opening is Ainic’s proprietary technology,
developed to supplement the shortcomings of commonly performed eye opening procedures.
Because it is performed by gently separating only to the extent needed
so that the lacrimal caruncle at the front of the eye is not overly exposed,
there is almost no scarring,
and the risk of side effects is also low.

So far, we have explained eye surgery completed with double eyelid surgery and epicanthoplasty,
together with Apgujeong Plastic Surgery Clinic.
Since the necessary method may differ depending on each person’s eye condition,
please find the appropriate method through 충분한 consultation.
Thank you.
