Male Eye Surgery
Male eye surgery is not very different from female eye surgery in terms of the basic surgical method.
However, the most important difference is the size and design of the double eyelid line.
Women usually want a more defined impression,
so surgery is often performed with a lower line.
The double eyelid shape that suits men is not a flashy line that stands out,
but a natural line that can make others say,
“You look more refreshed than before.”

These days, men are also highly interested in appearance management.
More and more people are considering plastic surgery not only for personal satisfaction,
but also to make a good impression in social settings and at work.
In particular, a tired and stuffy-looking impression caused by drooping eyelids or ptosis can work against you in interpersonal relationships.
Common cases seen in male eye surgery include the following.

Pseudoptosis
This is when there is no ptosis, but the person uses the eyebrows to open the eyes because of sagging skin.
It needs to be distinguished from true ptosis,
and in many cases, it can be resolved with skin excision alone.

True ptosis
This is when the eyelid muscles are weak and the eyes cannot be opened properly.
In this case, eyelid correction surgery needs to be performed along with the procedure,
rather than simple excision, in order to achieve a refreshed-looking eye shape.

Uneven eyes
This refers to cases where the size or shape of the left and right eyes differ.
It can be improved through eyelid correction, canthoplasty, or skin excision,
but making them exactly the same is difficult.

Sunken eyes
This is when the eyelids look hollow due to a lack of fat.
It is corrected with fat grafting or eyelid correction.
If ptosis is also present, doing both together leads to higher satisfaction.

Aging eyelids
Men often visit the hospital later than women,
so in many cases the skin sagging has already become severe.
In such cases, a method that combines a sub-brow incision and upper blepharoplasty is needed to sufficiently remove the sagging skin while restoring a natural eye shape.

In other words, male eye surgery is
not simply about creating a double eyelid line,
but about accurately diagnosing the individual’s problem and achieving both functional improvement and improvement in appearance.
Male eye surgery should not be excessive,
and natural-looking results are important.
In many cases, double eyelid surgery alone is not enough,
so ptosis correction, skin excision, or fat grafting should also be considered.
Because men’s eyes are often thicker than women’s and have more severe skin sagging,
it is safest and most satisfying to consult thoroughly with an experienced specialist
and find the method that best suits your own eyes.
