Incisional Method (Eye Correction)

Incisional Ptosis Correction is a procedure that corrects ptosis by making an incision in the eyelid, removing sagging skin and unnecessary fat and muscle, and suturing the fascia of the levator palpebrae superioris—the muscle that opens the eye—to the tarsal plate. It is suitable for cases with thick eyelid skin, abundant fat, or severe ptosis.

Achieve clear, refreshed-looking eyes with Ptosis Correction. Are you tired of being told that you look sleepy? The cause of sleepy-looking eyes lies in the muscles that open the eyes. Improving eyelid-opening strength can also help prevent Forehead wrinkles.

Recommended for

· Those whose black iris is visible by 80% or less when their eyes are open · Those concerned about looking sleepy or tired · Those who furrow their Forehead or raise their eyebrows when opening their eyes · Those with thick eyelid skin and abundant fat · Those with severe ptosis

3 Points of Urban Incisional Ptosis Correction

Point 1. Effective for thick skin and abundant fat

Effective for cases with thick skin and abundant fat.

Point 2. Corrects even severe ptosis

Correction is possible even in cases of severe ptosis.

Point 3. Detailed and reliable correction

Creates refreshed-looking eyes through detailed and reliable correction.

Eyes That Need Ptosis Correction

Normal eyes

When the eyes are open, approximately 5 mm of the black iris is exposed.

Eyes That Need Ptosis Correction

When the eyes are open, only approximately 1 mm of the black iris is exposed. If more than 80% of the black iris is not visible when the eyes are fully open and only about 1–2 mm is exposed beneath the eyelid, this can create a sleepy and tired appearance. Insufficient eyelid-opening strength causes the person to furrow the Forehead or raise the eyebrows to open the eyes, resulting in an unnatural appearance.

Non-incisional Ptosis Correction vs. Incisional Ptosis Correction

Non-incisional Ptosis Correction – Clear-looking eyes without an incision

| Procedure time: Approximately 30 minutes | Suitable for: Thin eyelids with little fat | Degree of sagging: Mild to moderate cases | Scarring: Almost none

Incisional Ptosis Correction – Detailed and reliable correction

| Procedure time: Approximately 1 hour | Suitable for: Thick eyelids with abundant fat | Degree of sagging: Severe cases | Scarring: Similar to a double-eyelid scar

Before-and-After Photos by Crease Type

In-Line Crease – A natural, subtle change

The most common type seen in Asian eye anatomy, this is a natural crease that begins at the inner eyelid and gradually becomes wider.

In-Out Crease – Natural yet refreshed-looking eyes

This crease falls between the natural look of an In-Line Crease and the refreshed look of a Semi-Out Line Crease, making it highly popular.

Semi-Out Line Crease – Defined and glamorous-looking eyes

Because the crease must be set higher, it is well suited to those who naturally have large eyes and do not have a prominent epicanthal fold.

Surgical Procedure

An incision is made in the eyelid to remove an appropriate amount of fat, then the strength of the levator palpebrae superioris—the muscle that opens the eyes—is enhanced to correct ptosis.

Before surgery

Small, sleepy-looking eyes without a double eyelid crease

STEP 1. Eyelid incision after design

After creating a design suited to the individual, an eyelid incision is made according to the design.

STEP 2. Removal of skin, muscle, and fat

Sagging skin is removed through the incision, followed by the removal of unnecessary muscle and fat.

STEP 3. Muscle strengthening through fascia suturing

The fascia is identified and sutured to the tarsal plate to strengthen the eyelid-opening muscle.

After surgery

Clear-looking eyes suited to you are achieved.
