Natural-fold (dot-suture) double eyelid

VIEW's dot-suture technique forms the crease by tying skin to the levator muscle through 4-5 tiny points, with no incision at all. It takes about 30 minutes with minimal swelling and virtually no visible mark even with eyes closed — suited to thin eyelids with little fat that want a natural-looking fold.

Incisional double eyelid surgery

VIEW's incisional method cuts along the eyelid line, removes excess fat and muscle, then sutures a permanent, well-defined crease. It takes 30 minutes to an hour and suits thick eyelids, heavy fat pockets or loose skin that non-incision methods cannot correct.

Combo (double-knot) non-incisional double eyelid

VIEW's combo technique ties a double knot linking muscle to skin through 4-5 tiny points, giving a sturdier fold than single-point suturing while still avoiding any incision. It takes about 30 minutes with minimal swelling and a fast return to daily life.

Ptosis correction (levator muscle surgery)

VIEW's ptosis correction adjusts the strength of the eye-opening muscle so the iris shows more and the gaze looks brighter. A non-incision option suits mild cases, while an incision method removing excess fat or muscle suits more severe droop. The procedure takes 30 minutes to an hour.

Canthoplasty (inner & outer eye corner surgery)

VIEW's canthoplasty widens the eye corners based on the double-eyelid line, iris exposure and eye shape of each patient, opening up the eyes with adjustments as fine as 1 mm. It takes about 20 minutes under sedation.

Revision double-eyelid surgery

VIEW's revision eyelid surgery is designed for patients unhappy with a previous double-eyelid result. It takes longer, around 1.5 hours, because existing scar tissue must be managed, and is best done 6 months to a year after the last surgery once tissue has settled.

Under-eye fat repositioning

VIEW's under-eye fat repositioning makes an incision inside the inner corner of the lower eyelid and redistributes bulging fat to fill the tear trough, reducing under-eye bags and dark circles without any visible outer scar. It takes about 30 minutes and suits patients whose fat protrudes alongside a hollowing tear trough.

Upper & lower blepharoplasty

VIEW's blepharoplasty calculates the amount of excess skin to remove beforehand, then incises along the upper crease or through a small lower-lid incision to remove excess skin and fat that makes the eyes look tired or aged. It takes about an hour and suits sagging, age-related upper or lower eyelids.

Sub-brow lift

VIEW's sub-brow lift places the incision just under the brow, rather than on the eyelid like standard blepharoplasty, lifting drooping upper lids for a naturally more open gaze without changing brow shape. It takes about an hour under sleep sedation.

Incisional facelift

Incisional lifting at VIEW suits patients with clear skin laxity. The surgery lifts the deeper tissue and SMAS layer for a firmer, more youthful face, with longer-lasting results than non-surgical lifting.

Non-incisional lifting

Non-incisional lifting at VIEW uses devices such as Ulthera or thread lifts to tighten skin and subdermal layers without long downtime, suitable for mild to moderate ageing signs.

Facial fat grafting

Facial fat grafting at VIEW harvests fat from areas with excess such as the thighs or abdomen, purifies it and injects it into hollow or sunken areas such as under the eyes, temples, cheeks and nasolabial folds.
