Hello, today I would like to share some information about male double eyelid surgery, or what is often called ‘male monolid-style’ surgery.

In the past, many people felt that men with double eyelids looked too ‘strong’ or ‘greasy.’

However, as interest in aesthetics among men continues to rise these days... ^^;;

Generally, men do not prefer large, high double eyelids. While the Hong Kong actors I used to admire had high double eyelid lines, that style doesn’t quite fit the modern Korean aesthetic.

He certainly is handsome. ^^;; This is a scene from ‘A Better Tomorrow.’
However, most Korean men prefer to make their eyes look larger while keeping the double eyelid line almost invisible.

Just like the photos above.

This posting was created with reference to a recent issue of the American Journal of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is male double eyelid surgery different from female surgery?

Yes, there is a significant difference in preferred designs. While women may prefer a prominent double eyelid line, Korean men often prefer to enlarge their eyes while keeping the double eyelid line barely visible.

What kind of eye surgery do men mainly prefer?

Men primarily prefer non-incisional ptosis correction. Because a high double eyelid line can sometimes look unnatural or 'greasy,' the recent trend is surgery that makes the pupils appear clearer without the line being outwardly visible.

How has the perception of male eye surgery changed compared to the past?

Interest in aesthetic aspects has significantly increased compared to the past. Previously, men avoided double eyelids, thinking they looked too 'fierce' or 'greasy,' but recently, many men are opting for natural non-incisional surgeries to enhance their appearance.

What kind of eye surgeries does Gangnam Seoyeon Plastic Surgery perform?

We perform male non-incisional ptosis correction, incisional ptosis correction, natural adhesion, and revision eye surgery. We design natural eye shapes that suit the sensibilities of Korean men, referencing professional academic materials such as the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery journal.
