There are two main types of bifacial surgery: implantation and incision.
Double-exposed eyelid surgery (implantation method)
The implantation method is a procedure in which thin medical threads are used to clamp the eyelid in several places to create a double fold line.The surgery is performed without skin incision or through a small incision with only a needle hole, so scars are less noticeable.It is considered to be the best choice. Compared to incisions, there is relatively little downtime and swelling, with major swelling settling down in roughly 5 days to 1 week, and 1 to 3 months before the procedure becomes natural. However, it is important to note that there is a risk of loosening or dislodging of the threads over time.
Double-incision surgery (incision method)
Incisional eyelid surgery is a procedure in which an incision is made in the skin of the eyelid to form a double fold. It is considered to offer a high degree of freedom in design and can be adjusted as desired. However, the downtime is longer than that of the implantation method, and it may take up to two weeks for the swelling and internal bleeding to subside, and three to six months for the eyelid to look natural. It takes about two weeks or more for the swelling and internal bleeding to subside. Also,Once formed, a double fold is basically irreversible.The following points can be mentioned. It is suitable for those with thick eyelids, those seeking a long-term, semi-permanent double fold, and those who wish to create a more defined line. It is also important to consider that once a double fold is formed, it is basically irreversible. This procedure is often chosen by those seeking a long-lasting double fold and those who wish to create a well-defined double fold line.
