Eye surgery at Jewelry Plastic Surgery: choosing the right technique
Jewelry groups its eye work into eleven procedures chosen by eyelid thickness, levator strength and fat volume: thin lids suit the Solar non-incisional method with its 5–7 point knots, thick or sagging lids need the incisional method, and a sleepy eye needs ptosis correction as well.

Non-incisional, partial or full incision?
The Solar non-incisional method ties the crease through small punctures at 5–7 points, so swelling is light and recovery quick — ideal for thin lids with little fat. A partial incision opens only where fat must come out, keeping swelling below a full incision. The full incision removes the most skin and fat, making it the mainstay for thick or sagging lids and for revision work.
Crease height is not a single standard number; it is designed against facial proportion and inter-eye distance.
When a crease alone is not enough
A sleepy eye from a weak levator needs ptosis correction; epicanthoplasty releases the Mongolian fold; lateral canthoplasty adds horizontal length; lower canthoplasty adds vertical height; and eye bags with a deep tear trough are treated by repositioning fat rather than simply excising it.
Senior eye surgery and revision
Upper blepharoplasty suits hooded skin narrowing the field of vision; lower blepharoplasty treats bags and loose skin together; and revision eye surgery starts by assessing adhesion, the old crease position and remaining skin before a new design.

Solar non-incisional double eyelid
Jewelry's buried-suture double eyelid ties the crease at 5–7 points so it holds firmly, with light swelling and a fast return to daily life.
Incisional double eyelid
Opens along the designed crease, removes excess fat and muscle and fixes the fold firmly — suited to thick or sagging lids and the mainstay of revision work.
Partial-incision double eyelid
A short, targeted incision removes fat and fixes the crease, combining the advantages of the buried and full-incision methods with less swelling.
Ptosis correction
Assesses levator strength and adjusts its tension so the eye opens wider, correcting a sleepy look and the forehead lines caused by brow-lifting to see.
Epicanthoplasty (inner corner)
Releases an inner corner covered by the Mongolian fold at a calculated position and angle, widening the eye without an unnatural scar.
Lateral canthoplasty (outer corner)
Extends the eye horizontally at the outer corner for a wider look in profile, with position and angle controlled so too much sclera never shows.
Lower canthoplasty
Opens the lower outer corner to add vertical height, softening a fierce or upturned eye line.
Under-eye fat repositioning
Moves protruding under-eye fat into the deep tear trough instead of simply excising it, leaving the under-eye smooth and brighter.
Eye revision surgery
Corrects a lost, thick or asymmetric crease and scarring from earlier surgery, after assessing adhesion and remaining tissue.
Upper blepharoplasty
Removes hooded upper-lid skin pressing on the lash line, widening the field of vision and freshening the face — typically for middle age and above.
Lower blepharoplasty
Treats eye bags, sagging skin and fine lines by repositioning fat and trimming excess skin for a smooth, taut under-eye.
Frequently asked questions
- Does the Solar non-incisional crease last?
- The hospital states it ties 5–7 points to spread the holding force, which lowers the chance of loosening; but in thick or heavily sagging lids the surgeons usually recommend the incisional method.
- Can ptosis correction be combined with double eyelid surgery?
- Yes, and it is a common combination: adjusting levator tension makes the designed crease look clearer and more symmetric.
