Are people with thick eyelids less likely to get double eyelids? Dr. Bianca explains the truth

"If I have thick eyelids, will I not get double eyelids?"
These are some of the questions we often get asked during counseling sessions.
In fact, even those with thick eyelidsIt is entirely possible to create the ideal double eyelidWhat is it?
However, it is important to take the “appropriate steps” according to the structure of your eyelids.
Basics of double eyelid surgery
There are two main types of double eyelid surgery.
-
Buried suture method: A method of creating a line by fixing the inside of the eyelid with thread
-
Incision method: A method of making an incision in the skin and trimming excess subcutaneous tissue to create a line
With either method, you can achieve a natural double eyelid by choosing a design that suits your eyelid conditions.
Why thick eyelids make it difficult to create double eyelids
The main cause of thick eyelids is the underlying skinA lot of fat (orbital fat and ROOF) and subcutaneous tissueこと.
Even if you use thread to secure the double eyelid line, it will not dig in and the line may become shallower over time.
Other factors that contribute to this include skeletal characteristics such as the eyes not being wide enough (tendency towards ptosis) and the distance between the eyebrows and eyes being narrow.
In such cases, double eyelid surgery alone may not achieve the desired result.
