The difference between double eyelid surgery and buried suture surgery. Is double eyelid surgery better or buried suture surgery?

Many people are obsessed with double eyelids and want to change their eyelids from single to double. So when it comes to double eyelid surgery, is it better to have double eyelid surgery by cutting or suture technique?

Double eyelid surgery is to directly remove the skin around the eyes to achieve the effect of permanent double eyelids. However, suture implantation does not require cutting the skin. It uses a thread to fix along the eyelid line to create the effect of double eyelids. If you are not satisfied with the double eyelids in the future, you can directly remove the buried thread to restore the original state. The effect of buried thread implantation is not permanent and generally lasts for about five years. In addition, the two are suitable for different groups of people. Double eyelid surgery can be used by people of all ages, while the buried thread implantation method is suitable for young people with less fat and tight skin.

The indications for double eyelid surgery are, first of all, not scarring physique, and secondly, sagging skin, bloated subcutaneous fat, large amount of orbital fat, forming puffy eyes, or abnormal levator palpebrae superioris muscle strength. If you choose double eyelid surgery, the postoperative effect is relatively ideal. However, if the skin is relatively tight, and the young beauty seekers have less subcutaneous fat and orbital fat, normal levator palpebrae superioris muscle strength, good length of palpebral fissure, and no epicanthus, you can consider buried suture double eyelid surgery. However, it is particularly important to pay attention to the fact that the skin and the pretarsal fascia must have a firm hook and fixation through buried sutures, so that a relatively long-lasting and effective double eyelid can be formed. Otherwise, it is more likely that the double eyelid line will disappear or fall off. Therefore, you must choose the appropriate indication according to your own situation to achieve the best effect of double eyelids.

Although double eyelid surgery is a very common cosmetic surgery, it is also a surgery with a high risk rate. The most common symptoms after double eyelid surgery are swelling, redness, weak eyelids, and inability to open the eyes. What is more serious is the risk of infection and suppuration. If a wound is cleaned and cared for in time, it can generally be avoided. It is also very important to carry out necessary preoperative preparations before surgery. Try to choose the right time and avoid doing it during menstruation. In addition, it is very important to communicate with the doctor before double eyelid surgery. Sufficient communication can help you understand the doctor's aesthetics and choose the right double eyelid shape for yourself, so that the shape after surgery will be more natural.

Our conventional surgical operations require that the wounds cannot be contaminated, that is, they cannot come into contact with water or touch the wounds. The wounds need to be protected. For some patients, we cover them with gauze after the operation, and for some patients, we apply a layer of antibiotic ointment to protect the wound surface. Therefore, they cannot come into contact with liquids, but of course they can come into contact with antibacterial liquids.
