What Is Eye Shape Correction?

Surgery for lively, defined eyes

Eye shape correction treats eyes that look sleepy and tired because weak eye-opening strength lets the eyelid cover the pupil,
making the pupils look clear and defined.
By improving ptosis, a weakness of the muscle that lifts the eyelid, it is also satisfying functionally.

The key to eye shape correction is not the line,
but the balance of eye-opening strength.

SH's Approach to Facial Structure

Leonardo da Vinci's
structural analysis
SH's eye shape correction

To draw a beautiful face, Leonardo da Vinci
did not simply trace its outline.
He divided the face by reference points and analyzed the role of each position.

Based on restored function,
we create a natural, defined look.

※ Results of surgery or procedures vary from person to person.

Non-Incisional VS Incisional

Non-incisional eye shape correction

 VS

Incisional eye shape correction
Without an incision, 12 fixations create 6 adhesion points for 2-layer fixation of the muscle Method The skin is incised and the muscle and tissue are corrected directly
Younger patients with thin, elastic skin / first surgery Candidates Thick or sagging skin / revision, functional correction
Almost no scarring / fast recovery Scarring and recovery Possible scarring from the incision / somewhat slower recovery
Fixation may be somewhat weaker (reinforced by 2-layer fixation) Durability Excellent fixation and durability
Can address mild ptosis Degree of correction Effective for moderate or more severe ptosis and muscle asymmetry

Ptosis Checklist

📄 Check list

  • The eyelid covers the pupil when you open your eyes (ptosis)
  • You use your forehead muscles to open your eyes
  • Restricted field of vision
  • Sleepy, tired-looking eyes
If necessary

When Eye Shape Correction
Is Needed

  1. If necessary 01

    Ptosis causes visual
    discomfort

  2. If necessary 02

    You want a natural,
    defined look

  3. If necessary 03

    Uneven eye-opening muscle strength
    makes your eyes asymmetric

  4. If necessary 04

    Your eyes look so sleepy
    that they are hard to open

Non-Incisional Eye Shape Correction Procedure

  1. Step 01

    1. Creating openings

    Tiny openings are made and the eye-opening muscle is reinforced with sutures.

  2. Step 02

    2. Muscle adjustment

    The length of the lax muscle is adjusted to shorten it.

  3. Step 03

    3. Closure

    The tiny openings are carefully closed.

Incisional Eye Shape Correction Procedure

  1. Step 01

    1. Incision

    After a fine incision, unnecessary skin and fat are removed.

  2. Step 02

    2. Levator reinforcement

    The eyelid levator muscle is reinforced to correct the eye shape.

  3. Step 03

    3. Closure

    The incision line is carefully closed to finish.

Effects After Eye Shape Correction

  • Effect 01. Defined, natural eyes
  • Effect 02. Eyes that open comfortably and easily
  • Effect 03. Functional and aesthetic improvement at the same time
  • Effect 04. Improvement of forehead wrinkles
  • Effect 05. Minimal scarring and fast recovery
  • Effect 06. A more youthful look

SH Plastic Surgery's Surgical Principles

Plastic surgery is not simply a technique for changing appearance;
it is medicine that understands the structure and balance of the face.

For natural and stable results, SH Plastic Surgery performs surgery
based on the following principles.

1

We analyze structure first

The eyes, nose and face are not independent structures; they influence each other to form your impression.

SH Plastic Surgery does not look only at the shape of the eyes or nose; we analyze

  • Eyeball position
  • Brow bone structure
  • Facial skeleton
  • Tissue balance

to understand the facial structure first.

2

We value balance over excessive change

The goal of plastic surgery is not to change the face excessively
but to improve its overall balance.

SH Plastic Surgery considers facial proportions and harmony
to pursue natural and stable change.

3

Surgery begins with design

Good results are not suddenly created in the operating room.
We create a design suited to your facial structure through accurate analysis, and the surgery is performed based on that design.

SH Plastic Surgery performs design-based surgery grounded in structural analysis.

4

We consider long-term stability

Results should look natural not only right after surgery but also as time passes.

SH Plastic Surgery chooses the surgical method
with tissue stability and long-term change in mind.

5

Patient safety comes first

The most important thing in plastic surgery is patient safety.

  • A dedicated, accountable medical team
  • Surgeon name disclosure in the operating room
  • Systematic management of the surgical environment

These measures keep the surgical environment safe.
