ไทยDouble Eyelid Surgery
Double eyelid surgery is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes the eyelids to create or enhance the appearance of an eyelid crease, making the eyes look more defined and beautiful. It is suitable for individuals who have concerns such as hooded eyelids, monolids (no crease), uneven eyelids, or drooping upper eyelids. Creating double eyelids can significantly enhance the eyes, making them appear larger, brighter, and more dimensional. The purpose of this surgery is to improve the aesthetic balance of the eyes with the face, correct uneven or single eyelids, reduce excess skin or fat around the eyelids, and boost confidence and overall appearance.
Who is Suitable for Double Eyelid Surgery?
- Individuals with hooded eyelids (where the crease is hidden).
- Those with uneven creases between their two eyes.
- Individuals with monolids (lacking a natural eyelid crease).
- Those with drooping upper eyelids.
Surgical Methods
Incision Technique (Open Incision Double Eyelid Surgery)
This method is suitable for individuals with monolids or existing double eyelids where the crease is small or hidden (also known as hooded eyelids). This occurs when the muscle that lifts the eyelid attaches to the skin lower than usual or not at all. In these cases, there isn’t usually a lot of excess skin to remove, but it’s necessary to create a new crease by making an incision in the eyelid skin.
Non-Incision Technique (Suture Technique or 3-Point Suture)
This method avoids making a full incision in the eyelid. It involves using sutures to create a crease by stitching through the eyelid skin. This technique is best suited for individuals with single eyelids who have minimal fat and no significant drooping of the upper eyelid. The advantages of this method include less post-operative swelling and a faster healing time with minimal to no visible scarring.
