Achieve Natural-Looking Double Eyelids Without the Scars.

At Model Skin MD, we understand that enhancing your natural beauty requires precision, care, and a gentle touch. Non-incisional double eyelid surgery, also known as suture blepharoplasty or stitch method blepharoplasty, is a popular and effective way to create or define double eyelids without the need for cutting the skin. This procedure is ideal for individuals who desire natural-looking results with minimal recovery time.

What is Non-Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery?

Non-incisional double eyelid surgery is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to create a natural-looking crease on the upper eyelids, also known as the "double eyelid." Unlike traditional incisional methods that involve cutting the skin and removing tissue, the non-incisional approach uses a series of small stitches or sutures placed inside the eyelid to form a fold. This allows for a quicker recovery, minimal scarring, and less downtime.

Who is a Good Candidate?

This procedure is best suited for individuals with:

• Thin or moderately thick eyelids

• Minimal excess skin or fat in the upper eyelid

• No significant drooping or sagging of the eyelids (ptosis)

• A desire for natural, subtle enhancement

It’s an ideal option for those who want a reversible procedure or those who may not be ready for the more permanent incisional double eyelid surgery.

How Does the Procedure Work?

1. Consultation and Customization: During your consultation at Model Skin MD, your surgeon will assess your eyelid anatomy, discuss your aesthetic goals, and design a customized treatment plan. We use advanced techniques to ensure the new crease is placed in the most natural and flattering position.

2. Local Anesthesia: On the day of your procedure, we apply local anesthesia to the treatment area, ensuring you're comfortable and pain-free throughout.

3. Suture Placement: Using a fine suture material, your surgeon creates a series of small loops through the skin and underlying tissue of the eyelid to form the desired crease. The sutures are hidden beneath the skin, creating no visible scarring.

4. Natural Crease Formation: Over time, the tissue naturally adheres to the sutures, creating a permanent fold that looks soft and natural.

Benefits of Non-Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery

• Minimally Invasive: No cutting or removal of skin or tissue is required.

• Quick Recovery: Most patients experience minimal bruising and swelling, with a recovery time of just 1-2 weeks.

• Reversible: If you change your mind, the sutures can be removed.

• No Visible Scars: Since there are no incisions, there’s no visible scarring.

• Long-Lasting Results: The results can last for many years, although some patients may eventually require a touch-up if the sutures become loose over time.

What to Expect After Surgery

• Immediate Recovery: After the procedure, you may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tightness around the eyes, which usually resolves within a few days. We recommend avoiding heavy exercise and strenuous activities for about a week to allow for proper healing.

• Follow-up: A follow-up appointment will be scheduled to ensure your recovery is on track and the sutures are healing properly.

• Results: You’ll begin to see your final results in about 1-2 weeks, with the eyelid crease appearing more natural as the swelling subsides.
