Tired of daily eyelid tape…… Starting to consider surgery
"I'm so tired of putting on eyelid tape every morning..."
Yuka, a university student, sighed in front of the mirror. She has been using eyelid tape since high school, but it takes time and often comes off by evening.
"Would life be easier if I got Double eyelids surgery?"
However, after researching, she found there are two types: the "non-incision method" and the "incision method."She wasn't sure which one would be right for her...
So I decided to ask people who are knowledgeable about cosmetic surgery.
Consult with a Double eyelids expert! What's the difference between the non-incision method and the incision method?
I consulted with someone experienced! The first step in cosmetic surgery
"Eyelid tape is no longer enough... I want Double eyelids surgery, but should I go non-incision or incision?"Yuka, who was troubled, reached out to Akari, a beauty influencer she found on SNS.
Yuka:"I heard you got Double eyelids surgery, and I wanted to consult about it..."Akari:"Of course! I had the buried suture method, but the right method differs from person to person. If you'd like, should I introduce you to the cosmetic surgeon I trust?"
With this, a consultation begins with Dr. Kusumoto, who was introduced by Akari, and the three of them.
Consultation day
Yuka:"I'm thinking about Double eyelids surgery, but what's the difference between the buried suture method and the incision method?"
Dr. Kusumoto:"To explain simply, the buried suture method is a technique that uses thread to create Double eyelids without cutting, while the incision method is a technique that creates Double eyelids by cutting the eyelid with a scalpel."
Akari:"I chose the buried suture method because it's simple and has a short downtime. It might be recommended for first-timers!"
Dr. Kusumoto:"Yes, that's right. However, the drawback of the burial method is that it can come undone. On the other hand, the incision method can create a firm Double eyelids, so it lasts semi-permanently. However, the downside is that the downtime is long."
Yuka:"I see, so the burial method is convenient but can come undone. The incision method is more secure, but the downtime is tough."
Burial method vs. incision method — which is right for you?
The thickness of your eyelids determines which treatment suits you! How to create natural Double eyelids
Yuka:"I'd like to have natural Double eyelids. Which method would be better for me?"
Dr. Kusumoto:"For natural Double eyelids, the thickness of your eyelids and eye opening are important factors. If your eyelids are thin, you can get beautiful Double eyelids with the burial method, but if your eyelids are thick, the threads can come loose with the burial method, and there's a higher chance of developing a tired-looking eye. Also, if your eye opening is poor, your options for Double eyelids width may be limited."
Akari:"I chose the burial method, but I heard that people with thick eyelids are more stable with the incision method! Eye opening is also an important factor!"
Yuka:"So I need to check the thickness of my own eyelids and my eye opening."
💡 【Conclusion】
- People with thin eyelids, good eye opening → The burial method makes it easier to create natural Double eyelids
- People with thick eyelids, weak eye opening → The burial method can cause loosening, and the incision method may be more suitable
- To choose the treatment that's right for you, it's important to first check the thickness of your eyelids and your eye opening!
If you're unsure about what's appropriate for you, first consult with your doctor!
Understand the risks and drawbacks of the burial method and incision method too
Characteristics, benefits, and drawbacks of the burial method
Yuka:"Can you tell me in detail about the benefits and drawbacks of each?"
Dr. Kusumoto:"The benefits of the burial method are that compared to the incision method, it's more affordable, the procedure is relatively quick, and the downtime is short. Also, if you're not happy with the result, you can remove the threads and potentially return to your original state."
📌 Benefits of the burial method
- Short procedure time (approximately 15–30 minutes)
- Minimal downtime and swelling
- Reversible (individual results may vary)
- Relatively affordable
Dr. Kusumoto:However, as a drawback of the buried suture method, there is a possibility that the sutures may come loose. In particular, it may not be suitable for people with thick eyelids or those who desire sharp or wide Double eyelids.
📌 Drawbacks of the buried suture method
- Sutures may come loose and Double eyelids may revert
- With thick eyelids, the crease line is difficult to establish
- Repeated buried suture procedures can leave residual sutures, making incision surgery more difficult
- May not be able to accommodate the desired width
Characteristics, benefits, and drawbacks of the incision method
Dr. Kusumoto:On the other hand, since the incision method provides semi-permanent results, you generally don't have to worry about your Double eyelids reverting.Even people with thick eyelids can achieve sharp Double eyelids.Also, for those with weak eye opening,ptosissurgery can be combined as an option.
📌 Benefits of the incision method
- Double eyelids can be maintained semi-permanently
- Even people with thick eyelids can create sharp Double eyelids
- Eyelid fat can be removed at the same time, allowing for the creation of well-defined **Double eyelids**
- When choosing incision-based **Double eyelids** surgery, it's also possible to improve eye opening
Akari:"My friend had the incision method done, but it seems her downtime lasted over a month."
Dr. Kusumoto:"Yes, that's right. As a drawback of the incision method, downtime is long, and there's a period where post-operative swelling and bruising are noticeable. Additionally, once the surgery is done, it's difficult to reverse it."
📌 Drawbacks of the incision method
- Long downtime (bruising: 1–2 weeks, swelling: 1–3 months), taking time to settle
- Basically cannot be reversed after the procedure
- Cost is higher than the non-incision method
💡 【Conclusion】How to choose between non-incision and incision **Double eyelids** methods
- People with thin eyelids, those who want to try **Double eyelids** easily→ The non-incision method is suitable
- People with thick eyelids, those who want to create well-defined **Double eyelids**, those whose non-incision **Double eyelids** came undone→ The incision method is suitable
- Those desiring long-lasting **Double eyelids** should also consider the incision method, taking downtime and cost into account
