The story
Looking for a natural double eyelid without a visible incision?
Many people notice the same moment. You are tired at the end of the day, you apply eye makeup, and the crease you wanted never quite shows. You start to wonder whether a double eyelid surgery in Seoul has to leave a scar.
The buried-suture method answers that question. Your surgeon places medical thread inside the eyelid and fixes the crease from within, so the skin is not cut. The operation takes about 15–20 minutes under local anesthesia, and there are no stitches to remove.
The method suits thin eyelids with little fat and firm skin. If your eyelids are thick or heavy, your surgeon may recommend another technique, and that is decided at your in-person exam.
