“I want to get double eyelid surgery, but I’m not sure which procedure

would suit me.”

“Are there any ways to perform double eyelid surgery naturally?”

Recently, double eyelid surgery has become so common that many people

are looking into Gimpo double eyelid surgery, to the point where it is even called a procedure rather than surgery.

However, no matter how many people undergo it and how common the surgery has become, there are still people who do not want it done ‘just anywhere’ or ‘in any way.’

Even for the same double eyelid surgery,

the most suitable procedure can differ depending on a person’s concerns, eye line, and eye shape,

so the surgery should be performed with these characteristics carefully considered.

So in this article,

we will introduce the most

suitable surgical method according to the characteristics of the eyes for Gimpo double eyelid surgery.

Gimpo double eyelid surgery,

3 surgical methods

Recently, many people have been trying to get double eyelid surgery using the buried method because it causes less swelling and has a faster recovery.

However, double eyelid surgery cannot be done by simply choosing the method you want,

so after consulting with medical staff, you should proceed with the method that matches the patient’s eye characteristics.

< Buried method >

The buried method creates a double eyelid by making a small opening large enough for medical thread to pass through the eyelid,

without making an incision, and then tying the thread.

Because no incision is made,

it can be said to be a suitable procedure for the following people:

✔ People with thin eyelids

✔ People with little fat

✔ People with minimal sagging

It requires a short procedure time of about 20 to 30 minutes,

and because the swelling is not severe, most people can return to daily life after 2 to 3 days.

Some people may worry that because it is not an incision, the double eyelid might come undone,

but careful surgery through the double buried method, which ties the knot twice,

can help reduce those concerns.

< Incisional method >

The incisional method creates a double eyelid by making an incision in the eyelid,

after removing unnecessary fat, muscle, and skin, and then suturing it closed.

It can be said to be a suitable procedure for the following people:

✔ People with thick eyelids

✔ People with a lot of fat

✔ People with sagging

Although the procedure time and recovery period are longer than with the buried method,

there is almost no concern about the double eyelid coming undone,

and a more defined eye shape can be achieved.

< Partial incisional method >

The partial incisional method creates a double eyelid by making a small 2 to 3 mm incision in the eyelid,

then removing unnecessary fat and skin.

In simple terms, it can be described as a middle form between the buried method and the incisional method.

We recommend the partial incisional method for cases such as the following:

✔ People concerned about scarring

✔ People with a lot of eyelid fat but not much sagging

Except for people whose skin has become loose due to age and needs to be removed, or people with ptosis,

this is a surgical method that can be applied to all eyes.

Today, we shared detailed information under the title, “Gimpo Double Eyelid Surgery: Buried or Incisional? Which Procedure Suits Me?”

Above all, in order to find the double eyelid surgery method that is most suitable for you,

it is very important to receive detailed consultation, surgery, and post-operative care

through a specialist with abundant experience, know-how, and expertise.

With this in mind,

we hope you will visit a place where you can have a more satisfying double eyelid surgery,

together with the information shared today.
