Double eyelid surgery is one of the most requested cosmetic procedures in Asia—and South Korea is the go-to destination for patients seeking refined and natural-looking results. At the forefront of this trend is Banobagi Plastic & Aesthetic Clinic, a globally respected name for customized, subtle, and scar-minimized double eyelid surgery.
If you’re an international patient concerned about unnatural or exaggerated results, this guide will show you exactly how Banobagi specializes in natural-looking outcomes that enhance, not change, your identity.
🧑⚕️ Expertise Rooted in Facial Harmony and Asian Aesthetics
At Banobagi, double eyelid surgery isn’t about creating a “Western” look. Instead, their approach focuses on:
- Enhancing individual beauty while preserving ethnic identity
- Designing an eyelid crease that complements your facial structure
- Avoiding overcorrection, excessive skin removal, or harsh folds
Their team of surgeons has over 20 years of experience in treating patients of diverse backgrounds, particularly those with unique eye anatomies such as monolids, asymmetry, or hooded lids.
🎯 Personalized Surgical Design: No One-Size-Fits-All
Before any surgery, Banobagi surgeons conduct a comprehensive eye analysis. This includes:
- Eye shape, size, and asymmetry evaluation
- Eyelid skin thickness and fat distribution
- Brow and orbital bone structure
- Ptosis or drooping muscle assessment
- Ethnic and gender-related aesthetic goals
Using this data, your surgeon sketches a customized eyelid crease directly onto your eyelid during consultation—showing you what to expect before the procedure.
✅ Result: A crease height and shape that looks natural when your eyes are open and barely visible when closed.
🛠️ Surgical Techniques That Promote Natural Results
Banobagi offers several types of double eyelid surgery, each carefully selected to match your anatomy and goals:
1. Non-Incisional Method (Suture Technique)
- Ideal for younger patients with thin, elastic skin
- No cutting = no visible scarring
- Shorter downtime and faster healing
- Natural-looking fold that follows the eye’s movement
2. Incisional Method
- For patients with thicker skin, sagging lids, or revisional surgery
- Allows fat/skin removal and precise crease creation
- Carefully performed to avoid overly deep or static folds
3. Partial Incision
- Combines the benefits of both techniques
- Limited incision with minimal scarring
- Targets patients needing slight correction with a very natural look
The technique is selected based on your needs—not a standard protocol—ensuring a bespoke approach for every patient.
🧪 Advanced Technology to Support Precision
Banobagi uses advanced diagnostic and surgical tools to maximize natural outcomes:
- 3D facial scanning to simulate your future eyelid crease
- High-resolution imaging to detect asymmetries
- Microsurgical instruments to minimize trauma and scarring
- Precision sutures that allow the eyelid to move freely without stiffness
These technologies help the surgeon make micro-adjustments during surgery, improving both symmetry and subtlety.
🔄 Smooth Eyelid Movement: The Key to a Natural Look
What sets Banobagi apart is its focus on creating a fold that moves naturally with your eye. Their surgeons avoid creating a “fixed” crease that can look artificial when you blink or smile.
Instead, they:
- Preserve the orbicularis oculi muscle (for natural eye movement)
- Avoid deep sutures that restrict blinking
- Use techniques that allow the crease to sit lightly on the lid when closed
💡 Realistic movement = natural result in both rest and motion.

- Anti-swelling care (cooling packs, LED therapy, herbal compresses)
