Middle-Aged Eye Surgery
When is a subbrow lift also necessary?
Dr. Dongil ChoiIt is natural to perform it together when the distance between the eyes and eyebrows is wide and eyelid sagging is severe. Heavy eyelids can also be refined together.

Men's Eye Surgery
Do men also need canthoplasty?
Dr. Dongil ChoiIf the horizontal length of the eyes is short or the epicanthal folds are strong, it can be performed conservatively in combination.

Non-Incisional Method
Is asymmetric eye correction possible with the non-incisional method?
Dr. Dongil ChoiIf the difference in eyelid thickness and muscle strength is not significant, asymmetric eyes can be corrected by designing the knot positions differently on the left and right. If the difference is large, the incisional method is more advantageous.

Dynamic Fixation Incisional Double Eyelid (Ptosis Correction)
I have ptosis; can it be resolved with the incisional method?
Dr. Dongil ChoiYes. During the incisional method, the levator aponeurosis can be precisely adjusted to correct ptosis as well. A sleepy-looking impression is clearly resolved.

Dynamic Fixation Incisional Double Eyelid (Ptosis Correction)
Non-incisional vs. Incisional: Which is better?
Dr. Dongil ChoiThe answer depends on the patient's eye condition. Our clinic applies the non-incisional method in less than 10% of cases, proceeding carefully only when strict indications are met, such as thin skin, good eye-opening strength, and no asymmetry.
