Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery

The Incisional method involves making an incision in the skin, removing the necessary amount of muscle and fat, and securing the double eyelid line. It is suitable for those with thick skin and a large amount of tissue, sagging skin, or those who prioritize long-lasting results. Ptosis Correction may also be performed as needed.

Features of AB Incisional Method

Point 1. A natural line with reduced tissue damage

We thoroughly assess each individual's eyes and tissue condition to effectively address sagging skin and fat. Only the necessary amount is precisely removed to reduce discomfort and scarring, and Ptosis Correction may be performed when needed.

Point 2. An incision with a short recovery period

Tissue damage is minimized to reduce swelling and scarring. Through a quick procedure, minimal swelling, and removal of an appropriate amount of tissue, we create a natural Incisional method that looks like the Natural adhesion method.

Strengths of AB Double Eyelid Surgery

Point 1. A natural eye shape customized to the individual

By adjusting the starting point of the double eyelid according to the condition of the eyes, we create a semi-defined eye shape that harmonizes with the Face.

In-fold

A type in which most of the line is hidden.

In-out fold

A line that starts at a low point and gradually widens toward the outer corner of the eye.

Semi-out fold

A line that starts slightly higher than an in-fold.

Out-fold

A fully high and distinct line from the starting point.

Point 2. A naturally secured, long-lasting line

We create a subtle, natural double eyelid line that lasts for a long time.

Point 3. Fast recovery with reduced tissue damage and swelling

By removing minimal tissue and skin, the procedure time is shorter, swelling is reduced, and recovery is faster. We avoid excessive surgery and aim for a Natural adhesion method that lasts like an incision, and an incision that looks natural like the Natural adhesion method.

Surgical Procedure

STEP 1. Before surgery

Before surgery, the individual's eye condition is assessed accurately.

STEP 2. After incision, remove muscle and fat

After making an incision, an appropriate amount of muscle and fat is removed according to the individual's condition. No more than necessary is removed to support fast recovery.

STEP 3. Secure the line (Ptosis Correction if needed)

The tarsal plate and dermis are sutured to create Adhesion. Ptosis Correction may be performed depending on the individual's condition.

STEP 4. Suturing

Meticulous, delicate suturing is performed to prevent visible scarring even when the eyes are closed.

STEP 5. After surgery

A natural double eyelid line is completed.

An anesthesiology consultation and additional tests may be conducted if necessary. · Please stop taking aspirin, pain relievers, hormonal medications, herbal medicines, and vitamin supplements starting 1 week before surgery. Please bring any medications you are taking on the day of surgery. · Smoking delays recovery and increases the risk of infection and anesthesia-related complications, so stop smoking from the day you decide to undergo surgery. Please stop drinking alcohol starting 1 week before surgery. · Fast for 10 hours before surgery, including water, candy, and gum. · Remove all nail polish and gel nails, and do not wear contact lenses or makeup on the day of surgery.

After surgery

· Sleeping with your head elevated above your heart for 3–4 days after surgery can help reduce swelling. · Apply cold compresses only through the third day after surgery. Most major swelling subsides within 1 week, while residual swelling may last 1–3 months. · Sutures are removed 3–10 days after surgery depending on the condition of the wound. Do not rub or squeeze your eyes forcefully, and do not forcibly remove scabs. · Washing your Face and light makeup are allowed from the day after suture removal. Heavy eye makeup and contact lenses are allowed after 3 weeks. Please avoid saunas and swimming for 1 month. · Light exercise is allowed after 1 week, and strenuous exercise after 1 month. · Alcohol and smoking are prohibited for 1 month, as they can cause inflammation and delay recovery. · The final eye shape settles over 3–6 months after surgery.
