Have you heard about the scar-preserving high fold correction for double eyelid revision?

The term "two-line" technique — formally, the scar-preserving high fold correction — has probably come up

for those of you searching for double eyelid revision,

rather than for those looking into a first double eyelid surgery.

So what is the scar-preserving high fold correction?

The scar-preserving high fold correction is surgery to lower the line,

for patients whose double eyelid is high or thick —

what people commonly call sausage eyes.

But not every revision patient who wants the line lowered

has the scar-preserving high fold correction!

The scar-preserving high fold correction releases the adhesion of the existing double eyelid

and creates a new line below it.

It got the nickname "two-line" because

it commonly leaves two lines of scarring!

The advantage of this surgery is, above all,

that patients who lack skin can have the line lowered

without any excision!

That is because the one-line technique, the more conventional approach,

is surgery that <excises> the skin between the newly designed line

and the existing line, releasing the adhesion

and creating a new line in the process.

Some people confuse incision with excision!

Cutting or opening the skin is incision,

while cutting a piece of skin away is excision!

Coming back to the main point,

patients who lack skin because of previous surgery naturally

have no more skin to remove — and even if it were removed,

lagophthalmos (incomplete eye closure) could develop, could it not?

The surgery created for those patients

is precisely the scar-preserving high fold correction!

How about it — has that cleared things up a little?

If so, you will want to look into a clinic

that is skilled in the scar-preserving high fold correction.
