The skin thickness and sagging of the eyelids, the amount of fat, and the function of the muscles that open the eyes are
It is an element to check together when choosing a method.

How to be buried

Use a special thread without skin incisions
It connects the eye-opening muscles and skin and forms a double eyelid line.

Non-invision method

Incision method

After cutting the eyelid skin to a certain extent
Remove some soft tissue such as skin, fat, muscle, etc. and fix the double eyelid line.

Incision and organization adjustment
  • Skin thickness and sagging degree
  • The amount of fat in the eyelids
