Natural Results Even with Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery!

# Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery
# Epicanthoplasty (Revision)
* Post-operative Progress
# An in-out double eyelid line that is clearly visible from the inner corner has been achieved. The patient is very satisfied as her impression appears much more defined.
