If there is one thing patients always ask their surgeon for in double eyelid and other eye surgery, it is a scar that does not show and a fast recovery. These points are decisive for office workers, job seekers and others short on time, and they have also become efficient grooming conditions for teenagers and university freshmen.
Dr. Yoosuk Chung of TheLINE Plastic Surgery says, “Along with eyes that are larger and more defined than one's own, scar-free surgery and fast recovery have become the recent trend in eye surgery.” In other words, patients want a natural improvement in appearance that satisfies them without “looking operated on”, and a quick return to daily life.
There are many kinds of eye surgery. People with small monolid eyes consider double eyelid surgery, those whose drooping eyelids cover the pupil and give a heavy look consider ptosis correction, and those whose eyes are short in width and who want a more open look consider epicanthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty.
For this reason many clinics specialising in eye surgery are known to perform eye surgery tailored to each patient's eye condition, and in particular to create a natural double eyelid line that does not look operated on. Crystal Eye Surgery is a representative example.
Crystal Eye Surgery uses a natural adhesion technique upgraded from conventional double eyelid surgery. It induces adhesion between the skin and the tissue beneath it and is performed without incision, which is why natural eye surgery is possible without scarring.
Another point of Crystal Eye Surgery is that it takes the overall harmony of eye shape and line with the individual's facial form into account to create defined yet natural eyes. Depending on the eye shape and condition, epicanthoplasty or canthoplasty is often performed alongside it.
Ptosis is something to check before eye surgery. In ptosis the eyelid covers the pupil and easily gives a heavy or sleepy impression, and the forehead muscles are used to raise the eyes. In this case non-incisional ptosis correction, which creates a knot at the muscle that opens the eye and at the double eyelid line, should be performed together with the eye surgery.
Dr. Junghwan Jeon said, “Natural eye surgery is creating the line and shape that suit the patient best. To raise the level of refinement of the eye shape, you need to choose a clinic where an experienced specialist handles everything from consultation through surgery.”
