Under normal circumstances, eyelid thread lifting/thread embedding surgery, which is performed with minimally invasive techniques and does not require surgery, is more suitable for young people aged 20 to 30 years old, who do not have too much subcutaneous fat around the eyes, and whose eyelids are not severely sagging or only slightly sagging. For older people who want to undergo eyelid thread lifting surgery, it depends on the condition of their skin, or they may need to be combined with other micro-plastic surgeries such as skin-cutting to achieve the best results.
Eyelid thread lifting/thread embedding surgery is performed using minimally invasive techniques without incision in the eyelid skin. The entire thread embedding surgery takes about 15 to 20 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia. The doctor only needs to bury small threads in the eyelids to connect the eyelids to the skin to form double eyelids, which is time-saving and safe. The speed of recovery after surgery varies from person to person. As long as you apply ice and take anti-swelling drugs, you will be back to your natural state within about a month, and there will generally be no scars. To avoid infection of the wound, do not use cosmetics before the wound has healed. Unlike traditional double eyelid incision surgery, double eyelid surgery with hanging sutures is a reversible surgery, and the sutures can be removed within two weeks after the surgery is completed. For double eyelid surgery performed with hanging threads, there is a chance that the double eyelids will disappear or become lighter due to loose threads or fat loss, but this is uncommon.
