What are the differences between ptosis correction and double eyelid surgery? A comparative analysis
The kind of impression a person gives
is one of the important factors to consider
and the decisive element is the ‘window to the soul.’
That refers to the eyes, which are responsible for vision,
and these days, to further enhance the beauty of the eyes,
many people are planning double eyelid surgery.
Through a detailed consultation with a specialist,
some patients may find that a method called ptosis correction
needs to be performed together.
When consulting with Director Hwang Ho, who is in charge of eye surgery,
I was told that ptosis correction was necessary,
but I became curious because I did not know what it was.
For those who want to know the difference between ptosis correction and double eyelid surgery,
and would like to understand it clearly,
today we will explain it through this post.
Director Hwang Ho said that
performing ptosis correction together
is helpful for achieving results that remain satisfying for a long time.
Double eyelid surgery
as many people already know,
is an image-enhancing procedure that creates
a double eyelid line by making a fine incision in the eyelid and suturing it,
thereby improving the appearance of the eyes.
At this time, the incisional method, non-incisional suture method,
or partial-incision method may be applied depending on the case.
However, if there is a lot of fat in the eyelids
or the muscles are thick,
applying only double eyelid surgery
may lead to problems later on.
That is why we also suggested a solution called
Big Eye Eye-Expansion Ptosis Correction,
which addresses weakened eye muscle strength
by shortening and fixing it,
making it an enlargement procedure that aims to make the eyes look bigger.
For those wondering in what cases
ptosis correction is performed,
we have prepared a variety of checklist items,
so please refer to the table below for details.
| Checklist | ✔ The eyelids have thick or abundant fat or muscle. ✔ The eyelid muscles weaken and droop with aging in middle age. ✔ The eyes have congenital ptosis. ✔ The left and right eyes look asymmetrical. ✔ Wrinkles form on the forehead when you open your eyes. ✔ The upper eyelid covers the pupil, which you need for a clear field of vision. ✔ The eyes still look sleepy even after previous double eyelid surgery. ✔ You want a clearer, more attractive eye shape along with double eyelid surgery. |
At Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery, through modern medical technology
while preserving the function responsible for vision
and adding aesthetic beauty,
we perform the eye correction procedure “Big Eye Expansion Surgery.”
Director Hwang Ho
first proceeds with a one-on-one design when performing
an eye-enlargement procedure that holds the skin and muscles in place,
taking into account the depth of the eyeball, the condition of the skin and muscles,
as well as the contour and proportions of the eyes,
which differ from person to person.
Incisional? Non-incisional? Which should I choose...
Big Eye Expansion Surgery for eye correction
is broadly available in incisional and non-incisional methods.
Please check the table attached below
and compare them for a one-on-one customized design.
| Incisional ptosis correction | Non-incisional ptosis correction |
|---|---|
| Eyes with severe skin sagging Eyes that are hard to correct without an incision Eyes with severe ptosis Eyes with thick skin | Asymmetrical eyes Eyes with mild ptosis Eyes that still look sleepy after double eyelid surgery Wrinkles form on the forehead when opening the eyes |
| Takes about 30 minutes | Takes about 30 minutes |
Once the director’s one-on-one design is planned
and meticulous surgical techniques are used,
aiming for a clearer, more defined eye shape,
we also provide meticulous care throughout the process
so that successful results can be achieved,
putting in a wide range of efforts.
