Sausage-shaped Fold / Multiple Folds Correction
“ Unnatural double eyelids, reborn with natural-looking lines. ”
- Definition of Sausage-shaped Eyelid
-
Sausage-shaped eyelid is a condition where the double eyelid line appears thick and unnatural after surgery.
It is called 'sausage eye' because it protrudes in a round and thick shape, resembling a sausage.
- why
Causes of Sausage-shaped Eyelid
1. When the double eyelid line is set too high
- ✓Increased amount of skin and soft tissue below the double eyelid line
- ✓The thicker the eyelid skin, the higher the risk of sausage-shaped eyelid
- ✓Inappropriate height setting relative to face shape and eye structure
2. When the double eyelid fixation is too high
- ✓Limited range of motion of the eye-opening muscle
- ✓Eyes appear drowsy and the double eyelid looks excessively thick
- ✓Decreased function of the levator palpebrae muscle
3. When the double eyelid fixation is too low or shallow
- ✓Insufficient fold in the double eyelid line even when eyes are fully open
- ✓Appearance of thick, heavy double eyelid
- ✓Skin sagging below the double eyelid line
- Definition of Multiple Eyelid Folds
-
Multiple eyelid folds refer to the formation of several layers of creases rather than a single clean double eyelid line, creating an untidy and unnatural appearance.
- why
Causes of Multiple Eyelid Folds
1. Congenital Multiple Eyelid Folds
- ✓Born with multiple crease lines by nature
- ✓Anatomical structural characteristics of the eyelid
2. Multiple eyelid folds due to failed eyelid surgery
- ✓Inaccurate line setting from previous surgery
- ✓Formation of multiple lines due to failed adhesion release
- ✓Limitations of surgical technique
3. Multiple eyelid folds due to aging
- ✓Eyelid skin naturally thins with age
- ✓Decreased skin elasticity and sagging
- ✓Gradual reduction of upper eyelid fat

Correction Surgery Methods
The surgical method is determined by the amount of excess eyelid skin in each patient.
A
- When there is sufficient excess skin (Single-line scar)
- Only one scar line remains on the eyelid
Skin excision between the existing line and the new line
- • Skin excision between the high double eyelid/multiple fold line and the new ideal line
B
- When there is insufficient excess skin (Dual-line correction method)
- Two scar lines remain on the eyelid The existing line gradually fades over time.
Incision of new double eyelid line
- • Setting a new line at the ideal height
- • No skin excision performed
2
Complete release of existing adhesions
- • Removal of inappropriate adhesions from high double eyelid/multiple folds
- • Creating a foundation for the new line in a lower position
3
Precise fixation of new double eyelid line
- • Fixing the new line at accurate height and depth
- • Natural line applying the golden ratio for each individual
4
Upper Eyelid Fat Repositioning
- • Preventing recurrence of adhesion at the previously high line
- • Adding Fat Graft when upper eyelid fat is insufficient
5
Precise skin suturing
- • Minimizing scarring with microsurgical suture technique
C
Additional Fat Graft (if needed)
When Fat Graft is necessary
- • When upper eyelid fat itself is insufficient
- • When upper eyelid fat repositioning alone is insufficient for volume
Fat Graft method
- • Autologous fat harvesting (abdomen, thighs, etc.)
- • Separating only pure fat cells through a precise purification process
- • Micro Fat Graft in a layer deeper than the orbicularis oculi muscle
Surgical Benefits
1
- Natural Line Restoration
-
Designing a personalized line considering the anatomical structure of the face and eyes, achieving a defined yet natural double eyelid line
2
- One Clean, Single Line
-
Consolidating multiple ambiguous folds into one clear double eyelid
3
- Prevention of Recurrence
-
Preventing unwanted fold adhesions through upper eyelid fat repositioning, fat graft, etc.
4
- Scar Minimization & Recovery Care
-
Minimizing scars and providing faster recovery with micro-suture technique and systematic recovery management program
