Let’s Learn About the Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery Method

Hello, this is Director Choi Seung-hyeop of Wink Plastic Surgery. Today, we’ll be looking into incisional double eyelid surgery.

There are two major types of double eyelid surgery: incisional and non-incisional. The incisional method creates the double eyelid line by making an incision along the entire designed line, while the non-incisional method creates the double eyelid by making only tiny openings along the design line.

With the incisional method, it is possible to remove sagging skin, raise or lower the eyelid line, remove or reposition fat, and correct ptosis, so almost all procedures can be performed.

In particular, when lowering a thick, high double eyelid, the incisional method must be used. This is because a new double eyelid is created through an incision, and then the existing double eyelid above it must be carefully released.

Even in the case of hollow eyes with little fat, the incisional method is performed for fat repositioning or grafting. Through the incision, a clearer surgical field allows fat to be moved or grafted accurately to the desired position.

Also, in cases of severe ptosis, the levator muscle can be advanced more precisely to correct the ptosis in greater detail. In particular, when both eyes are asymmetrical, the incisional method is a way to achieve more accurate correction.

That concludes our look at incisional double eyelid surgery.
