Among facial features, the eyes are an important part of the body that determines a person’s first impression. This is because the shape of the eyes, the presence or absence of double eyelids, and the size and degree of exposure of the pupils can determine whether the impression appears gentle, sharp, or refined.
Accordingly, people who wish to improve their appearance to create a more favorable impression may consider medical services such as eye surgery as an active way to enhance their image.
Because each person’s eye condition and shape differ, there are also many types of eye surgery. In particular, those who have a complex about their eyes often choose incisional double-eyelid surgery. However, it is important to choose the procedure that suits you based on an accurate diagnosis by medical staff.
Double-eyelid surgery is broadly divided into the aforementioned incisional method and the buried suture method. Among these, the buried suture method helps people with little fat around the eyes or thin eyelids create a natural double-eyelid line.
The buried suture method creates a double eyelid by passing thread and a needle through the eyelid without making an incision. When the suture thread ties the tarsal plate and dermis from inside the tissue, the eyelid skin is pulled inward as the eye-opening muscle moves upward, forming the double-eyelid line.
In general, the buried suture method is characterized by almost no scarring because swelling tends to subside relatively quickly after surgery, and return to daily life is also fairly fast.
However, with the conventional buried suture method for double eyelids, the line may loosen over time, creating a need for revision surgery. Because eye surgery can change the overall impression of the face, consultation with medical staff is necessary to find the surgical method best suited to each individual.
Side effects of eye surgery may include bleeding, bruising, and left-right asymmetry. In double-eyelid surgery such as the buried suture method, the double-eyelid line may form too deeply or appear in multiple folds. Other issues may include loosening of the double eyelid or the formation of an awkward and unnatural-looking line.
Director Hwang Ho of Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery advised, “Buried suture double-eyelid surgery causes less swelling because it does not involve an incision,” adding, “The surgery time is relatively short, making it suitable for busy modern people, and patients can expect clear, natural-looking eyes without an obvious surgical appearance.”
Director Hwang added, “Eye surgery should be performed with consideration for each person’s individuality and harmony with the overall face,” and “It is important to find a method that can achieve balance with every part of the face.”
