Natural Results for a Woman in Her 20s: ‘Partial Incision Double Eyelid + Medial/Epicanthoplasty’ Without Scarring! - VIBE Plastic Surgery, Dr. Young-moon Yoo

Hello.

I am Dr. Young-moon Yoo, Director of VIBE Plastic Surgery.

Today, I would like to introduce a case of partial incision double eyelid surgery combined with epicanthoplasty for a female patient in her 20s.

This patient had long been concerned about her eyes appearing heavy or stuffy due to hidden double eyelids (monolids) and a blocked inner corner of the eye.

As she desired a natural yet refreshed and open look, we planned a correction using ‘Partial Incision Double Eyelid + Medial/Epicanthoplasty (Mongolian Fold Correction)’.

✔ Why is partial incision double eyelid surgery beneficial?

Partial incision is a method that combines the advantages of both incisional and non-incisional techniques, making it a popular choice for patients in their 10s and 20s.

1) Minimal Scarring Burden

The incision range is short, making scars almost unnoticeable.

Over time, it often settles as naturally as a non-incisional procedure.

2) Fast Recovery

Swelling and bruising are significantly less than a full incision.

The advantage is a quick return to social life, work, or school.

3) Fat Removal Possible

Excess fat in the eyelids can be addressed.

This reduces the chance of the fold loosening and increases line stability.

4) Natural yet Defined Line Formation

It creates a clear double eyelid line without looking artificial.

The design can be customized to enhance the natural conditions of the patient’s eyes.

✔ Correcting the inner corner with Epicanthoplasty

The patient had a strong Mongolian fold, which covered the inner corner and made the eyes look closed off.

By releasing the stuffiness at the front of the eye through epicanthoplasty:

The eye length is extended for a refreshed look.

It creates harmony with the double eyelid line for a natural enlargement effect without looking awkward.

The overall impression becomes softer and clearer.

At VIBE Plastic Surgery, we apply an epicanthoplasty design that minimizes scarring, aiming for natural results that do not look ‘done’.

✔ Post-Operative Changes

The sleepy and blurred eyes changed into a clear and bright impression.

The double eyelid line settled naturally, and the horizontal width of the eyes expanded through epicanthoplasty.

It is now possible to create a much clearer and cleaner eye look when applying makeup.

The patient was very satisfied, saying, ‘I no longer feel stressed about the shape of my eyes.’ ☺️

✔ Why the results are natural

Double eyelid surgery at VIBE Plastic Surgery is not just about creating a line;

The function of the eyelid-opening muscle

Fat volume

Skin thickness

Pupil exposure

Harmony with the overall impression

Facial bone structure

We design a line that perfectly fits your face by comprehensively considering all these factors.

✔ Why partial incision is especially suitable for patients in their 10s and 20s

Good skin elasticity and fast recovery mean almost no scarring remains.

It is optimal when fat removal is needed but a natural look is desired.

It completes naturally beautiful eyes without significantly altering the original eye shape.

✔ Closing

Partial incision double eyelid surgery and epicanthoplasty are excellent options for patients who want a ‘natural change that doesn’t look obvious, yet is clearly effective’.

Because diagnosis and design are crucial to determine your eye conditions and which line suits you best, we always proceed with a personalized surgical plan.
