Correction of Sunken Upper Eyelids and Multiple Eyelid Folds

Learn about surgical methods for correcting sunken upper eyelids and multiple eyelid folds, ranging from ptosis correction to fat grafting.

Correction of Sunken Upper Eyelids and Multiple Eyelid Folds

For individuals with sunken upper eyelids, also known as ‘sunken eyes’, surgical correction is often performed.

These types of eyes are particularly prone to having ‘multiple eyelid folds’ or ‘triple eyelids’.

In such cases, various methods are used for correction.

When a patient has multiple folds and appears sleepy, as seen in the case above, excellent results can be achieved through ptosis correction alone.

In older patients, this condition often occurs alongside a sleepy and tired appearance.

This specific patient underwent ‘fat grafting’ to address the ‘sunken upper eyelids’.

In this case, the ‘sunken upper eyelids’ were so severe that ‘fat grafting’ was performed in conjunction with incisional double eyelid surgery.

The key to this procedure is tailoring the surgery appropriately to the diverse range of individual cases.
