Ptosis Correction
Beautiful eyes hinge on the right eyelid crease height and iris exposure ratio.
Appropriate Ptosis Correction strengthens eye-opening power and increases iris exposure
for sharply defined eyes.
Surgery details may vary by individual,
and side effects such as inflammation, bleeding, and nerve damage may occur and should be carefully considered.

Core Principles
Ptosis Correction strengthens eye-opening power by controlling the levator muscle — a core procedure for revision surgery, severe ptosis, and creating high, dramatic double eyelid creases.
Combining it with double eyelid surgery delivers even brighter, more defined results.
The inner and outer boundaries above the iris relative to the pupil are corrected. The position may vary depending on individual eye shape.
Regardless of pseudo or true ptosis, Ptosis Correction with appropriate correction strength is needed to improve eye shape. Iris exposure is adjusted to suit each individual.
Without excessive removal of skin or tissue, and with a shorter surgery time, swelling is minimal and return to daily life is rapid.
Comparison
The most suitable method varies by eyelid thickness, tissue volume, severity of ptosis, and whether double eyelid creases are present.
Type Details

and step-by-step surgical process for each method.
A minimal skin incision removes unnecessary fat and skin, then the tarsus and orbicularis muscle are corrected to strengthen the eye-opening muscle. Combining with double eyelid surgery creates even brighter, more defined results.
When Incisional Ptosis Correction Is Effective
Thick eyelids or large tissue volume
Moderate-to-severe or congenital ptosis
Desire for a high, dramatic double eyelid crease
Severe adhesion requiring revision surgery
Using brow muscles to open the eyes
Weak eye-opening strength
Incisional Ptosis Correction Process
The individual's eye and tissue condition is closely examined to correct the necessary amount of drooping skin and fat.
Removing only the appropriate tissue volume minimizes an artificial appearance and scarring.
Before surgery, the individual eye shape, skin thickness, and fat distribution are thoroughly assessed.
After incision, the appropriate amount of muscle and fat is removed according to individual condition.
Using special sutures, knots are placed in the levator muscle to strengthen eyelid lifting power.
The incision is carefully and precisely sutured so no scar remains even when the eyes are closed.
Fine sutures are densely placed to firmly fix the muscle. Although non-incisional, this technique reduces the risk of loosening comparable to incisional correction — with minimal scarring and swelling for a quick return to daily life.
When Non-incisional Ptosis Correction Is Effective
Weak eyelid strength causing the iris to be covered by the eyelid
Ptosis giving a sleepy or tired appearance
Thin skin with minimal tissue
Using forehead muscles to open the eyes
Ptosis present but with minimal eyelid drooping
Eyelid has elasticity but iris is still covered
Non-incisional Ptosis Correction Process
Dense suturing with fine threads and firm muscle fixation means that despite being non-incisional,
the risk of loosening is minimized and results are as sharply defined as incisional correction.
Before surgery, the individual eye shape, skin thickness, and fat distribution are thoroughly assessed.
Seven tiny punctures are made and sutures passed through to fix the double eyelid crease.
Using special sutures, knots are placed in the levator muscle to strengthen eyelid lifting power.
The previously sleepy impression caused by covered irises transforms into a naturally lifted eyelid with a sharply defined eye shape.
Performed for those who prefer a natural, understated look over dramatic transformation while maintaining their current impression. We fulfill individual goals by creating refreshing, clear-cut eyes without a visible double eyelid crease.
When Monolid Ptosis Correction Is Effective
Weak eyelid strength causing the iris to be covered by the eyelid
Ptosis giving a sleepy or tired appearance
Desire to maintain current natural appearance
Desire for larger eyes without a double eyelid crease
Monolid Ptosis Correction Process
Performed when a natural, understated look is preferred over drama while maintaining current appearance.
Goals are fulfilled by creating refreshing, clear-cut eyes without a visible double eyelid crease.
Before surgery, the individual eye shape, skin thickness, and fat distribution are thoroughly assessed.
For thick skin with excess fat, the appropriate amount of muscle and fat is removed after incision.
Knots are placed internally in the levator muscle to strengthen eyelid lifting power without creating a visible crease.
The incision is carefully and precisely sutured so no scar remains even when the eyes are closed.

Pleasure Difference
The eyes are the center of the face's impression. We operate not on a single crease,
but considering the full facial balance and tissue resilience.
Before surgery, we precisely analyze brow-to-eye distance, eye length, skin thickness, fat volume, eyelid drooping, eye-opening strength, and brow position — then design a refined 1:1 personalized procedure.
By using minimally invasive micro-incision techniques, scarring is nearly invisible; personalized post-operative care enables a swift return to daily life.
After Care
Our systematic post-care program manages bruising, swelling, and scarring
for faster recovery.
Medical-grade LED therapy accelerates wound healing and reduces swelling and bruising after surgery.
Removes swelling at the wound site and promotes blood circulation for effective reduction of swelling and bruising.
Gently softens post-surgical scar tissue and reduces swelling to restore skin to its natural condition.
