When you come in for a consultation and surgery to remove a double eyelid fold,
there comes a moment when you have to decide whether you want a completely fold-free look or a hidden fold that is close to no fold at all.
A completely fold-free look means, literally, no double eyelid fold at all. In contrast,
an almost fold-free hidden fold is a line that is barely visible when the eyes are open,
but a slight line may show when looking downward.
Today, let’s look at long-term follow-up photos of a completely fold-free result.

Before surgery, the eyes had a double eyelid line,
but there was no line in the middle, and only a surviving, distorted line at the front and back,
giving the eyes a rough, uneven appearance.
With surgery to remove the double eyelid fold, this distorted line was eliminated
to create a smooth, completely fold-free result.

When the result is completely fold-free, the eyelid line itself is formed to follow the shape of the eye,
so unless a person has an unusually shaped eye,
the eyes after surgery come out smooth and natural.

The main difference between a completely fold-free result and an almost fold-free hidden fold is that,
with a completely fold-free result, there is no line at all on the eyelid, and the upper eyelid can be pressed down by the eye,
so the eyes may become slightly smaller after surgery than before.
A completely fold-free result has this weakness,
but some people choose surgery because they do not want eyes that are large and round both vertically and horizontally, and they actually want their eyes to become smaller.

Also, unlike an almost fold-free hidden fold, a completely fold-free result
shows no line at all even when looking downward,

and even when the eyes are closed, the scar is barely visible,
which highlights the strengths and advantages of a completely fold-free result.
If you want no double eyelids but still do not want your eyes to become smaller, choose an almost fold-free hidden fold.
If you want your eyes to be fold-free whether open or closed,
choose a completely fold-free result.
Please choose the option that better matches what you want and have the surgery accordingly!
