Before & After Double Eyelid Surgery Results
Why Choose Korea
Double eyelid surgery is the most performed cosmetic procedure in South Korea. No country in the world has more experience or refined techniques for this surgery.
Korea performs more double eyelid surgeries than any country. This volume means Korean surgeons have unmatched expertise in creating natural-looking creases for every eye shape.
Korean surgeons developed many of the advanced techniques used globally today, including the non-incisional burial method and combined ptosis-crease procedures.
Get world-class eyelid surgery from $1,500 in Korea — compared to $4,000-$8,000 in the USA. Prices include surgeon fee, anesthesia, and all follow-up care.
Korean surgeons offer multiple techniques tailored to your eyelid anatomy, skin thickness, and desired outcome.
Creates a crease using tiny punctures and buried sutures. Minimal scarring, fastest recovery (3-5 days), ideal for thin eyelid skin. The most popular choice for younger patients.
A precise incision along the crease line allows removal of excess skin and fat. Permanent results, best for thicker skin or patients wanting dramatic definition.
A shorter incision combines the benefits of both methods — more precise than suture technique with less scarring than full incisional.
Corrects droopy or sleepy-looking eyes by tightening the levator muscle while simultaneously creating a natural crease. Essential for patients with ptosis.
Opens the inner corner of the eye (Mongolian fold removal) for wider, more defined eyes. Often combined with double eyelid surgery for maximum effect.
Creates the youthful under-eye fat pad (love band) that gives a bright, friendly appearance. A signature Korean aesthetic treatment.
Transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Save 40-60% compared to US prices for the same quality.

We recommend 5-7 days. This allows for pre-operative consultation, the surgery itself, and initial recovery including stitch removal. Non-incisional patients may be comfortable leaving after 5 days.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with optional sedation, so you feel no pain during surgery. Post-operative discomfort is mild and managed with prescribed medication. Most patients describe it as tightness rather than pain.
Korean surgeons specialize in creating natural-looking creases that suit your facial proportions. During consultation, your surgeon will design the crease height and shape to match your goals — from very subtle to more defined. Korea's expertise in Asian eye anatomy ensures results that look authentic.
Korea has the world's most experienced revision eyelid surgeons. If you're unhappy with results from a previous surgery (even from another country), Korean surgeons can correct asymmetry, adjust crease height, or address scarring.
Yes — Korean patients commonly combine double eyelid surgery with rhinoplasty, epicanthoplasty (inner corner opening), or aegyo sal creation. Combining procedures reduces overall recovery time and is more cost-effective.
Double eyelid surgery creates a crease in the eyelid. Ptosis correction strengthens the muscle that lifts the eyelid (levator muscle), making the eyes appear more open and alert. Many Korean surgeons combine both for optimal results — especially if your eyes appear sleepy or tired.
Many patients combine double eyelid surgery with other procedures for comprehensive facial harmony.
