Typical ranges for double eyelid to monolid surgery; your surgeon confirms the details at consultation.
What is double eyelid to monolid surgery?
Double eyelid to monolid surgery is a revision procedure that releases an existing eyelid crease to restore a monolid, or lowers a crease that is too high. At Marble Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul, it is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon experienced in revision eyelid surgery.
Reversing a crease means freeing the adhesion between skin and the deeper layer and placing tissue between them so they do not re-attach. How fully a crease can be removed depends on how it was created, how much skin was removed and how much scar tissue is present.
Who is double eyelid to monolid surgery for?
Suitability is decided at a 1:1 consultation with your surgeon.
- A crease that is too high, deep or unnatural after earlier surgery
- People who preferred their original monolid
- Asymmetric creases after previous surgery
- Enough remaining eyelid skin for safe revision
How double eyelid to monolid surgery is performed at Marble
- Consultation and planning Your surgeon examines the existing crease, scar tissue and remaining skin, reviews your previous surgery and explains how much reversal is realistic.
- Anesthesia and monitoring A board-certified anesthesiologist selects the anesthesia with your surgeon, administers it, and monitors you continuously throughout the procedure.
- Releasing the crease Through the previous scar, adhesions are released and fat or soft tissue is repositioned as a barrier so the fold does not re-form at the old height.
- Recovery and discharge You rest in a private recovery room under monitoring. Before you leave, the team explains wound care, medication and your follow-up schedule.
Recovery and aftercare
Swelling lasts longer than after a first eyelid surgery because scar tissue is involved. The final shape becomes clear over several months.
- Swelling injection and regenerative LED laser in the first week
- Milia removal at checkups
- 1-year revision guarantee
- Unlimited surgeon-checked scar injections
- Recovery kit to take home

Frequently asked questions
Can double eyelids be fully reversed?
Non-incisional creases are often easier to release. After incisional surgery with skin removal, complete reversal may not be possible, but the crease can usually be lowered or softened.
How long should I wait after my first surgery?
Revision is generally planned after swelling has resolved and scars have matured, often around six months, unless your surgeon advises otherwise.
Is revision eyelid surgery more difficult?
Yes. Scar tissue and reduced skin make it more demanding, so an experienced surgeon and a conservative plan are important.
Who will perform my procedure at Marble Plastic Surgery?
The surgeon you consult with performs your surgery. Marble follows a surgeon-of-record policy with no substitute surgeons, and a board-certified anesthesiologist is on site full-time to manage anesthesia and monitoring.
