Treatment Overview
Eyelid surgery is a procedure that adjusts the inner, outer, and lower lines of the eye, taking into account the Mongolian fold and the proportions of the eye. The goal is to refine eyes that appear heavy or closed; depending on the shape and proportions of the eye, the most suitable method—upper, outer, or lower eyelid surgery—is planned.

Treatment Methods and Types
Eyelid Surgery
This procedure involves making an incision at the inner corner of the eye, where the Mongolian fold causes the eye to appear narrow, to refine the eye shape. It is recommended for patients with a pronounced Mongolian fold or a wide distance between the eyes. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, and the recovery schedule will be provided during your consultation.
Ear Pinning
This procedure involves making an incision at the outer corner of the eye to adjust its horizontal width. It is recommended for individuals whose eyes appear short in width or narrow at the outer corners. The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes, and the recovery schedule will be discussed during your consultation.
Footer
This procedure involves making an incision along the inner conjunctiva at the outer corner of the eye to adjust the height and vertical line of the outer corner. It is recommended for cases where the outer corner of the eye appears lifted or the vertical length appears short. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, and the recovery schedule will be discussed during your consultation.
