Possessing a delicate, photogenic face is the dream of many young women, and the pivotal role of eyebrows and eyes in facial aesthetics is undeniable. Achieving beautiful double eyelids is a common aspiration, yet the procedure involves more than simply transforming monolids into double folds. The chosen method and surgical technique must be tailored to the individual.
Small Eyes
Generally, individuals with longer eyes, thin eyelids, and good eyelid elasticity are suited for wider, larger double eyelids. However, those with short or small eyes are not suitable for wide, large double eyelids. Design must consider the harmony of the eye's length-to-width ratio, utilizing the golden ratio to ensure the double eyelid effect appears natural, realistic, and beautiful, without any artificial traces.For this eye shape without skin laxity, the latest SG positioning double eyelid technique can be used. It requires no incisions, no suture removal, and causes minimal trauma. There is no redness or swelling post-surgery, allowing patients to return to work the same day. Puffy Eyes The most common eye type, appearing swollen due to thick eyelids. Rather than just creating double eyelids, thinning the thick eyelid is more important.In such cases, the incision method is used to remove excess fat and muscle layers, thinning the eyelid before suturing the incision.
For this condition, liposuction is also an option without incisions. Since puffy eyes often have excess upper eyelid fat, liposuction can achieve excellent results. A major advantage of this method is reversibility—meaning the original appearance can be restored if the double eyelid outcome is unsatisfactory.If the upper eyelid skin is lax, the approach depends on the specific condition. Options include the incision method with fat and skin removal for double eyelid creation, or considering a brow-lowering incision to correct upper eyelid laxity.Excessively wide-set eyes can affect facial expression.
Double eyelid surgery alone can create a wider-eyed effect. However, for this eye type, concurrent surgery on the outer (lateral canthoplasty) or inner (medial canthoplasty) canthus can effectively lengthen the perceived eye width. This narrows the space between the eyebrows, making the eyes appear more expressive and larger.While inner canthus (Mongolian fold) or outer canthus surgery doesn't necessarily need to be combined with double eyelid surgery, many opt for both procedures to achieve better results. However, since outer canthus surgery is less effective than inner canthus surgery, the latter is more recommended.
