Double Eyelid

Natural double eyelids, designed to suit your eyes

From the buried-suture method to full incision. Naturally, with the method that suits your eye structure.

YOUR CONCERN

Do you have concerns like these?

Concern about eyes with no line or a heavy look
  • My eyes look small because I have no double eyelid
  • My double eyelid loosened or is asymmetric
  • I want a natural, not artificial, double eyelid
  • My eyelids are thick, so a line doesn't hold well

LINE TYPE

4 double-eyelid lines

We don't just ‘make’ a line — we ‘design’ a line that suits your eyes and face. Even the same double eyelid gives a different impression depending on the starting point and width.

Four double-eyelid lines: in-line, in-out, semi-out, out-line

In-line

The inner line is hidden in the epicanthal fold and appears from about the inner 1/3 of the eye, widening naturally toward the outside

In-out

A natural line that starts attached to the inner corner and gradually widens toward the outside

Semi-out

A line that starts slightly away from the inner corner, is visible along its whole length, and widens toward the outside

Out-line

A distinct line that stays away from the upper lid margin from inner to outer, appearing relatively parallel

DESIGN CRITERIA

How is the line
that suits your eyes decided?

  • Eyelid thickness — thick, make the line thin; thin, adjust the width
  • Eye look & shape — line flow matched to the outer-corner direction and eye length
  • Facial proportion — balance with the glabella and inter-eye distance
  • Desired impression — the balance point between clarity and naturalness

PROCEDURE METHOD

How do the double-eyelid methods differ?

The way a line is made also varies with eyelid thickness, skin laxity, and fat volume. The buried-suture, partial-incision, and incision methods differ in incision extent and degree of tissue refinement.

Buried-suture, partial-incision, incision comparison — differences in incision extent and tissue refinement

Buried-suture method

Through small openings, a suture passes in and out, connecting the skin's dermis with the levator / levator-tarsal complex layer to create a line.

Thin eyelids · little excess skin

Partial-incision method

Mostly done like the buried-suture method, but with a short incision in part of the center-to-outer area to adjust some orbital fat or the soft tissue around the line.

When some fat / soft-tissue adjustment is needed

Incision method

The entire double-eyelid line is incised to refine excess skin, orbital fat, and internal soft tissue together.

Sagging / thick eyelids · when tissue refinement is needed

DESIGN CONSULTATION

We design the line height
and starting point together

The doctor directly examines eye-opening strength, eyelid thickness, and facial proportion to design the height, width, and starting point of the line. The design drawn in consultation carries straight through to surgery. When the line alone lacks definition or the inner corner is covered, Epicanthoplasty·Ptosis Correctionwe may review these together.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Q. Which is better, the buried-suture or the incision method?

It depends on eyelid thickness, fat volume, and the line you want. It is decided after the doctor's diagnosis.

Q. Can a double eyelid loosen?

The buried-suture method can loosen. The incision method holds longer, though how long it lasts varies with eyelid thickness, skin condition and lifestyle.

Q. Will it look natural?

We analyze your eye shape and design a line that suits it.

Q. How long does swelling last?

1–2 weeks of initial swelling, with the final result complete after 3 months.
