Are you considering double-eyelid surgery?
Many people wonder which crease will suit them best and what the results will be like after surgery.
In fact, one of the most important pieces of information to know before double-eyelid surgery is the thickness of your eyelid skin.
This is because the crease and surgical method that suit you may vary depending on your skin thickness.
We will show you a very simple way to check the thickness of your eyelid skin, along with tips for choosing a double-eyelid crease based on the result.

First, gently close one eye.
Then, using a thin, soft tool such as a toothpick or cotton swab, gently press the area where you want to create the double-eyelid crease.
If the crease quickly disappears and returns to its original state even after several attempts,
your eyelid skin is relatively thick.
On the other hand, if a crease forms easily when you use a toothpick and remains in place even after blinking several times,
your eyelid skin can be considered relatively thin.
Once you have checked the thickness of your eyelid skin, it is time to find out which double-eyelid crease will suit you best.
The recommended crease varies depending on skin thickness, so be sure to keep this in mind and use it during your consultation.
If your eyelid skin is relatively thick, it is better to choose a lower crease rather than one that is too high.
If you create a high crease on thick skin, it may look unnatural or the crease may loosen easily.
A lower crease can harmonize with the thickness of the eyelid, helping create a more natural and defined appearance.
Conversely, if your eyelid skin is relatively thin, trying a slightly higher crease may be a good option.
Because the skin is thin, even a high crease can settle in relatively naturally,
creating an effect that makes the eyes look larger and more open.
Of course, considering your individual eye shape and overall facial harmony is most important,
but if your skin is thin, you can think of it as having slightly more options to choose from.
Double-eyelid surgery is not simply about making the eyes look larger; it is a process of finding a natural beauty that suits your face best.
We hope that the skin-thickness assessment method and crease-selection tips provided here will help you make the best choice for you.
Before surgery, be sure to consult thoroughly with a specialist
and remember that it is important to develop the surgical plan that is most suitable for you!
Thank you.
