Eye shape surgery in Korea is a personalized approach to creating more balanced, attractive, and natural-looking eyes.

The objective is to enhance the overall eye shape while preserving natural eyelid function and expression.

Eye Shape Surgery Korea

Eye shape surgery is not a single procedure but a customized combination of techniques designed to improve the overall appearance of the eyes.

Rather than simply creating a double eyelid, surgery is planned to achieve harmony between the eyelids, eye opening, eye length, and facial proportions for natural-looking results.

Personalized Consultation by Dr. Ahn Sung Min

Every patient undergoes a detailed facial and eyelid evaluation.

The consultation includes:

• Eye shape analysis
• Facial proportions
• Eyelid anatomy
• Eye opening (MRD1)
• Ptosis evaluation
• Skin thickness
• Eyelid symmetry
• Canthal position
• Personal aesthetic goals

Every surgical plan is individually customized.

Procedures That May Be Combined

Depending on the patient's anatomy, treatment may include:

• Lower blepharoplasty

Not every patient requires multiple procedures. Only the techniques necessary to achieve the desired result are recommended.
