Non-Incisional Method

JK Ptosis Correction using the Non-incisional method is a procedure that strengthens the muscles that open the eyes—the levator palpebrae superioris and Müller’s muscle—by placing sutures through the inside of the eyelid without making a skin incision and tying them on the back of the eyelid. It leaves no external scars and generally allows for faster recovery due to less swelling and bruising.

Recommended for the following people

· Those with minimal eyelid fat and no severe sagging · Those who look slightly sleepy or have mildly weak eyelid-opening strength · Those who still appear sleepy after Double Eyelid Surgery · Those who want brighter-looking eyes without Double Eyelid Surgery

What Is Ptosis Correction?

Ptosis, commonly referred to as “sleepy eyes,” is a condition in which the eyes open only partially or the eyelids droop and cover much of the iris due to weakness of the eye-opening muscles or an abnormality in the nerves supplying those muscles. With Ptosis Correction, sleepy-looking eyes can be opened more fully for a clearer, more defined eye shape.

Why Ptosis Correction, Rather Than Double Eyelid Surgery, May Be Needed

It is important to determine through an examination whether ptosis is present before Double Eyelid Surgery. Very mild ptosis may improve with standard Double Eyelid Surgery alone, but if it is more severe, the double-eyelid fold may loosen easily and the ptosis may become more noticeable. Because Ptosis Correction requires more delicate, advanced techniques than simple Double Eyelid Surgery, it is important to undergo the procedure with an experienced physician.

Features of JK Non-incisional Ptosis Correction

Point 1. Clear, Attractive Eyes

Sutures are placed through the inside of the eyelid to tie the levator palpebrae superioris and Müller’s muscle, strengthening the muscles that open the eyes.

Point 2. Fast Recovery Without Visible Scars

Because it does not damage eyelid tissue, there are no visible external scars, and recovery is shorter due to less swelling and bruising.

Point 3. Natural Correction

Natural correction is possible for those who still look sleepy after Double Eyelid Surgery or who want brighter-looking eyes without Double Eyelid Surgery.
