The double eyelid suture method is a procedure that creates double eyelids by burying sutures finer than hair under the eyelid. The surgery takes only about 15 minutes, and makeup can be applied the next day. Since no incision is made with a scalpel, there is no need for suture removal. With minimal downtime, this surgery has little impact on daily life, making it ideal for busy individuals juggling work or childcare.

When performing double eyelid suture surgery, I first thoroughly align my vision with the patient's ideal double eyelid during the pre-operative consultation to finalize the design. Then, I perform the surgery with the goal of perfectly recreating the agreed-upon design. To achieve “minimal swelling immediately after surgery” and "natural-looking double eyelids that remain undetectable post-surgery," I select a customized surgical approach for each patient, meticulously adjusting every detail—from the anesthesia to the tension when tying the sutures.
The double eyelid suture method is a procedure where sutures are buried beneath the eyelid. However, in the double eyelid suture procedures (back suture) I have performed to date, I have never received a report from a patient that the sutures came out after surgery.

For patients who desire a double eyelid design with particular attention to detail, wish to avoid detection by others as much as possible, or prefer not to undergo multiple surgeries, I highly recommend my procedure.

Double Buried Suture Method (Inner Fixation)*… A surgical technique where the suture is secured on the inner side of the eyelid rather than the outer side during the buried suture procedure. This reduces the likelihood of the suture fixation point becoming visible on the outer surface of the eyelid.

Dark circles under the eyes can be black, purple, or brown, and treatment must be tailored to each condition and its cause. At BIANCA CLINIC, we offer detailed consultations to recommend the most suitable treatment for each patient. This includes transconjunctival fat removal, where we make an incision in the conjunctiva on the inner side of the eyelid to remove the orbital fat causing the dark circles, as well as the Hamra method and reverse Hamra method, which relocate orbital fat to fill the hollows under the eyes.
Additionally, simply removing fat can sometimes lead to sagging skin or an increase in wrinkles. Therefore, we may suggest combining procedures such as fat grafting or lower eyelid skin excision.

Over my career performing over 1,000 dark circle removal procedures, I have focused on achieving beautiful results while minimizing downtime. In dark circle removal, removing too much tissue can actually make you look more tired or aged.
Based on my extensive empirical knowledge and data, I determine the optimal amount of fat to remove using “4D design”—a method that evaluates in three dimensions while anticipating future changes. Minimizing bleeding during surgery to reduce downtime as much as possible is another crucial point derived from my experience.

If you're getting plenty of sleep but people ask if you're sleep-deprived because of your dark circles, or if you're troubled by dark circles that concealer can't fully cover, please feel free to consult us.

FOX EYE LIFT is a procedure that uses thread lifts to lift the outer corners of the eyes outward and upward. It creates sharp, defined eyes reminiscent of the “FOX EYE” look popularized by overseas celebrities on social media, lifting the entire face. As it uses thread lifts, there is no incision with a scalpel. This procedure offers immediate results with minimal downtime and relatively long-lasting lifting effects. It is also recommended for those concerned about asymmetry in their eyebrows.

FOX EYE LIFT is an overseas-developed procedure that is still rarely performed at Japanese beauty clinics. It has gained popularity among those seeking to improve sagging around the eyes, achieve a more youthful appearance, or create sharp, defined eyes reminiscent of Korean idols. This procedure also offers the potential to lift the forehead and temples—areas previously difficult to address without incisions. While FOX EYE LIFT is a popular procedure in Europe, America, and Korea, I have refined it to suit the Japanese eye area.

If you desire sharp, fox-like eyes like overseas celebrities, or if you're concerned about sagging upper eyelids or drooping double eyelid lines as you age, please feel free to consult with us.
