Precision beyond the crease.
We craft the perfect "K-Beauty" line tailored to your unique eye anatomy.
Double eyelid surgery is the most frequently performed procedure in Korea, meaning our surgeons possess unrivaled experience and technical refinement.
It is not just about "cutting a line." It is about analyzing skin thickness, orbital fat, and levator muscle strength to create a crease that looks natural when you close your eyes and defined when you open them.
Whether you desire a natural "In-Out Line" or a glamorous "Semi-Out Line," Korean techniques minimize scarring (sausage eyes) and maximize pupil exposure.
We design the crease based on your preference and facial harmony.
The crease starts hidden inside the inner corner. Ideal for a very natural, classic Asian look.
The crease starts near the inner corner but remains visible. The most popular choice for a fresh, bright image.
The crease starts above the inner corner, parallel to the eye. Creates a westernized, exotic, and high-definition look.
Medical assessment determines the right candidate, not just desire.
Most international patients combine Double Eyelid with Epicanthoplasty (inner corner)
or Lateral Canthoplasty (outer corner) to maximize eye length and clarity.

Customized technique based on your skin thickness and fat volume.
Unlike traditional "burial" methods that easily unravel, the Korean Natural Adhesion method uses micro-holes to remove a tiny amount of fat and induce natural tissue sticking between the skin and muscle.
Essential for patients with thick skin, excess muscle, or heavy orbital fat. We remove unnecessary tissue to prevent the "sausage eye" effect and create a crisp, permanent line.
If your eye muscles (levator) are weak, creating a double eyelid alone will make you look like a "sleepy person with a crease." We tighten the muscle so the pupil is clearly exposed (80–90% visibility).
| Feature | Non-Incisional (Natural Adhesion) | Incisional (Full Cut) |
|---|---|---|
| Ideal Candidate | Thin eyelids, little fat, no sagging | Thick skin, puffy fat, sagging skin |
| Incision | Micro-punctures (No cut) | Full horizontal incision |
| Scarring | Almost invisible | Fades to a fine line (3-6 months) |
| Recovery | 3–5 Days (Makeup possible quickly) | 1–2 Weeks (Stitch removal day 5-7) |
| Estimated Cost | $1,000 ~ $1,800 | $1,800 ~ $3,000 |
* Costs vary based on revision complexity, anesthesia, and combined procedures.
Korean methods focus on "Quick Return" to daily life.
Swelling is at its peak. Keep head elevated and apply ice frequently.
For incisional methods, stitches are removed. Swelling drops rapidly after this.
Bruising is mostly gone. Eye makeup can cover remaining redness. You can fly home comfortably.
The line height settles to its designed position. The "sausage" look disappears completely.
Transparent discussion ensures the best outcome.
Caused by removing too little muscle or fixing the line too high. Our "Dynamic Fixing" technique prevents this puffy look.
Eyes are naturally asymmetrical. We adjust the design to millimeter precision to balance left and right visually.
Temporary dryness may occur as the eye exposure increases. Eye drops are prescribed during recovery.
If you have previous scarring from other clinics, we use scar-saving techniques to lower the line and release adhesions.
