Double eyelid surgery creates or defines an upper eyelid crease to give a natural-looking fold and more definition to the eye. Surgeons individualize crease height/shape to your anatomy and goals, and may combine procedures (e.g., ptosis repair or epicanthoplasty) when appropriate.
A cosmetic eyelid procedure that creates or enhances a natural-looking upper lid crease. The crease height/shape is customized to facial anatomy and preference.
Adults in good health seeking a defined crease and symmetry, with realistic expectations. Your surgeon will assess skin thickness, fat, any ptosis (droopy lid), and whether combining ptosis repair or epicanthoplasty would improve results.
Suture has a smaller access and faster recovery but a higher chance of the fold loosening/relapsing over time.
Incisional allows precise crease design and removal of extra skin/fat, and is more durable for many patients. Your anatomy and goals drive the choice.
Not always. When a prominent epicanthal fold crowds the inner corner and limits crease shaping, a carefully planned medial epicanthoplasty can lengthen/open the inner corner and harmonize the crease. Decision is individualized.
No. Ptosis repair lifts a droopy eyelid margin by tightening the levator; double eyelid surgery creates a crease. They can be done together if both shape and lid height need correction.
Asymmetry or crease irregularity, over/undercorrection, visible scar, transient dry eye/irritation, infection/bleeding, and rare lid malposition. Selecting an experienced oculoplastic or facial plastic surgeon and following after-care lowers risk.
Fees vary by city, surgeon, and technique (suture vs. incisional; add-ons like epicanthoplasty or ptosis repair). Public clinic references place many double-eyelid quotes roughly in the ~C$5,500–$10,000+ range across major cities, with suture techniques on the lower end and comprehensive incisional/combined cases higher. (Examples: Vancouver clinic notes C$5,500–$7,000 averages; a Toronto practice lists upper eyelids from ~C$8,999.) Your consultation provides an exact quote.
