Shapes of Double Eyelid Surgery


It is also very important to find the most suitable double eyelid shape and crease for vivid, bigger and natural eyes. Korean double eyelid experts’ advice never to mimic someone else’s crease and shape because it may not suit you best. It is one way of surgery failure. Here are shapes of different eyelids to consider before taking a double eyelid surgery.

 


 

Inner Type


The double eyelid line starts from the inner corner of the eyes with the front part of the crease not quite visible, then from the middle part it becomes visible as it reaches to the end. This is a typical double eyelid of a Korean, and 80% of Koreans belong to this category. Those who want natural looking double eyelids will desire this type of line crease, and this surgery relatively recovers quickly. Usually, the term, inner double eyelid refers to the smallest double eyelid fold among those classified as “Inner Type.”

 

Outer Type


Double eyelid of Westerners are 100% Out Type. The line is not hidden. The starting point is not joined from the outside and continues to the end in a parallel line as if a rainbow, hence it is also called parallel type. Since the line should be usually soft and natural looking, an outer line created by the incision method is sometimes seen as having a bad surgery. What a Korean double eyelid expert would recommend is a natural looking outer line, therefore, it is better to make the outer line using the embedding method (suture method) rather than the incision method. In case of thick eyelid skin or small eyes, extra care should be taken.

 

In between Inner-Outer


The line is seen as a combination of the inner and outer line. As the front part of the line begins from the outside to the ending it seems like out line. But the difference is the beginning part of the line starts very narrow and as it leads to the end part, the thickness of line gets wider, this type of double eyelid looks as if the inner type. This is the most ideal type of double eyelid but only possible for eyes that are long with thin eyelids. Depending on individual case, some patients may show traces of surgery, therefore the doctor needs to make decisions carefully.
