Is it better to do double eyelid surgery with buried suture or full incision?

Whether a person's eyelids are single or double is determined by nature. Some people think single eyelids are sexier, but some people prefer double eyelids. Of course, this natural eyelid can also be changed through later repair. There are many types of double eyelid surgery in clinical practice, and you should also consider your own factors when choosing. So when doing double eyelid surgery, is it better to do buried suture surgery or full incision?

1. Thread Embedment

Buried suture double eyelid surgery is more suitable for those with tight eyelids. If the eyelids are too loose, buried suture double eyelid surgery will not have much effect. Incisional double eyelid surgery is a once-and-for-all method of forming double eyelids, and its application range is wider than that of buried suture double eyelid surgery. If you want to have double eyelids permanently, it is recommended to have double eyelid incision.

2. Thread implantation is not permanent

Buried suture double eyelid surgery is not a permanent surgical method. It depends on individual circumstances. It is not suitable for people with excessive fat in the upper eyelid, commonly known as puffy eyelids, and older people. If you have more fat, it is recommended to have an incisional double eyelid surgery. Incisional double eyelid surgery is suitable for double eyelid shaping in all cases and repairing failed double eyelid surgeries. However, the specific method that is suitable for you depends on your eye condition.

3. Others

If there is less fat in the eyelids, the effect of thread embedding will be better, but the duration of thread embedding is only a few months to a few years. For some people, even the effect disappears after a year and they return to their previous state. It seems that the incision method is better. The incision method is to cut the eyelids open, remove excess fat, and reshape the skin according to the degree of skin looseness. This method is more suitable for people with thick eyelids or more eye fat.
