Beautiful, bright eyes
Incisional / Partial-Incision Eye-Shape Correction
Bright, Beautiful, Larger-Looking Eyes
Incisional or partial-incision eye-shape correction resembles ptosis surgery, adjusting eyelid-lifting force so more of the iris is visible. Weak lifting muscles can create a tired look; adjusting levator shortening makes the eyes brighter. Because deep muscles must be adjusted, meticulous technique is essential.
Incisional or partial-incision eye-shape correction resembles ptosis surgery, adjusting the force that lifts the eyelid so more of the iris is visible. Weak lifting muscles can let the lid cover too much of the eye and create a tired look. By adjusting levator shortening, the eyes appear brighter and more alert. Because deep eye muscles must be adjusted, meticulous technique is essential.

Surgical method
Accurately assess the eyes before surgery and discuss the findings in detail with the specialist.
Local anesthesia after brief sedation
Day 4-5 after surgery
1.5 hours
No hospital stay required
Non-incisional eye-shape correction
Unlike conventional correction, this method does not cut the skin. Internal sutures secure the levator and Müller's muscle to strengthen elevation. It preserves tissue, leaves no visible scar, causes less swelling and bruising, and allows faster recovery. It can also brighten eyes that remain tired after double-eyelid surgery or when no double fold is desired.
Unlike conventional correction, this method does not cut the skin. Sutures placed inside the eyelid join and secure the levator and Müller's muscle from behind, strengthening eyelid elevation. It preserves eyelid tissue, leaves no visible external scar, causes less swelling and bruising, and allows faster recovery. It can also naturally brighten eyes that remain tired after double-eyelid surgery or when no double fold is desired.

Common questions
Questions and answers
Review common concerns before your consultation
What exactly is ptosis?+
Ptosis occurs when the levator muscle that raises the eyelid is weak, preventing the eye from opening fully. The eyes look sleepy, and patients often use the forehead muscles to open them, creating forehead wrinkles. Because this can make the face look older, many choose eye-shape correction.
Can correction be performed if my existing double-eyelid fold is shallow?+
Yes. Even with an existing fold, correction can strengthen eyelid elevation, define the line more clearly, and preserve a natural appearance.
How do I know whether I need only double-eyelid surgery or correction as well?+
A specialist can determine the correct approach. If the eyes look tired or the forehead is used to open them, double-eyelid surgery alone may not be effective, so combined correction is often recommended. With ptosis, a fold alone may remain faint, sag with continued forehead use, or loosen. Follow the method recommended after consultation.
When can I return to daily activities?+
Recovery differs by incision. Most patients resume daily life after one week; major swelling subsides by day 14, when makeup and contacts can usually resume. Mild swelling may take at least six months to settle. Anesthesia: light sleep sedation for 5-10 minutes while local anesthesia is administered. Surgery time: non-incisional 30-40 minutes, partial incision 1 hour, full incision 1-1.5 hours, depending on the eyes. Hospitalization: not required; discharge after 1-2 hours of recovery.
