Which eye surgery is right for me?
The appropriate procedure depends on eyelid anatomy, skin quality, muscle function, and aesthetic goals. This is determined through an eyelid anatomy assessment, facial proportion analysis, and evaluation of skin, fat, and muscle.
What is the difference between non-incisional and incisional double eyelid surgery?
The natural adhesion (non-incisional) technique suits appropriate candidates with thinner eyelid skin and minimal excess tissue, creating a subtle crease with minimal scarring. An incisional technique suits thicker eyelids, excess skin, or excess fat, allowing precise tissue adjustment and long-term crease formation.
Who is a candidate for ptosis correction?
Ptosis correction addresses weakened eyelid-opening muscles to improve eyelid position, increase pupil exposure, and create a brighter, more alert appearance. Candidacy is determined by evaluating muscle function during consultation.
Can ptosis correction and double eyelid surgery be combined?
Yes. When clinically appropriate, both procedures may be performed during the same operation.
Can multiple eye procedures be combined?
Multiple procedures may be combined when clinically appropriate. Whether a combination suits you depends on your eyelid anatomy, muscle function, facial proportions, and goals.
What canthoplasty options are available?
Options include medial (inner corner), lateral (outer corner), lower, and combined canthoplasty. These are selected according to eye shape, facial anatomy, and individual treatment goals.
How long is recovery?
Recovery varies according to the procedure performed and individual healing. Newline provides a structured postoperative recovery system including swelling management, anti-inflammatory treatment, and healing support therapies.
How long does swelling last?
Swelling duration depends on the procedure performed and your individual healing response. Swelling management during surgery and anti-inflammatory treatment are part of the recovery protocol, and your surgeon provides an individualized timeline.
When can I wear contact lenses after surgery?
This depends on the procedure performed and how your eyelids are healing. Follow the specific postoperative instructions given by your surgeon rather than a general timeline.
