2How It's Performed?
It takes about a couple of hours to perform an

injection. In clinics and hospitals, IV sedation
is a preferred way of administering
anesthesia. For a double eyelid surgery, the
surgeon starts working on the top eyelids first.

through the opening, the skin is separated from
the tissues. In this way the fat and skin that
are causing the folds are removed and the
openings are stitched back. For the lower
eyelids, stitches are normally not required as
the techniques are different. In some techniques

fat. In others, a cut is made along the eyelashes
to pull out the excess fat, skin and muscles. In
both the cases, a follow up laser procedure is
recommended to soften the cut lines. Who Needs

over the eyelashes. The skin gathers on and
around the eyelids weighing them down gradually

aging regardless of the procedure. So, your eye
