Consultation
Our medical director, Dr. Eric Wang, will assesses your eyelid anatomy, skin thickness, and suitability for the non-incisional technique, while discussing realistic expectations, crease design options, and recovery.
Procedure day
On the day of your procedure, your eyelid crease design will first be carefully marked and reviewed with you to ensure the planned shape and symmetry align with your goals. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia for comfort and typically takes about 1 hour.
Follow up
At the 3-month follow-up appointment, the focus is on evaluating the healed eyelid crease, symmetry, scar-free healing, and overall aesthetic outcome once residual swelling has fully settled.
What is the Instant Double Eyelid™?
Dr. Wang was the first to introduce the Instant Double Eyelid™ procedure in Vancouver, pioneering a minimally invasive approach that delivers natural-looking double eyelid results with minimal downtime. Dr. Wang’s technique is inspired by his training and experience in South Korea and Japan. By integrating the advanced Asian techniques he learned abroad, he developed a refined approach tailored to achieving natural and balanced results.
Who is a good candidate?
This procedure is recommended for patients:
With thin to moderate upper eyelid skin and fat
Seeking a quick return to daily activities
Wanting to minimize post-procedural scarring
Looking for natural-appearing double eyelid results without skin incisions
How does the procedure work?
This non-incisional double eyelid procedure is performed using five tiny entry points along the upper eyelid, following your planned crease line. Through these small openings, a single continuous suture is carefully passed beneath the skin to create a smooth, even fold without any cutting of skin or muscle. Because the fold is formed by one continuous thread instead of multiple separate knots, this technique is designed for longer-lasting results and a softer, more natural-looking double eyelid.

FAQs
-
Dr. Wang's Instant Double Eyelid™ procedure utilizes a specialized continuous suture technique, which differs from traditional loop-based or simple interrupted suture methods commonly used in non-incisional double eyelid procedures.
One of the key advantages of the continuous design is that it helps distribute tension more evenly across the entire length of the suture, rather than concentrating force at only a few focal points. This balanced distribution of tension may help create a more stable eyelid crease and can contribute to the long-term durability and longevity of the result.
The continuous configuration also creates multiple points of contact between the eyelid tissues, helping to promote a natural adhesion between the skin and underlying structures. This can allow for a crease that appears natural both at rest and during facial expression.
-
While the results are long-lasting, it’s possible for the sutures to loosen over time. However, with proper care, the crease can last up to 10 years or longer. Some patients may opt for a touch-up procedure in the future.
-
No, since there are no incisions, there are no visible scars. The sutures are hidden under the eyelid skin and are not visible.
-
The procedure typically takes around 60 minutes, making it a quick and convenient option for those with busy schedules.
-
On the day of your procedure, we recommend that you come to the clinic with no make-up, false eyelashes, or contact lenses.
-
After the procedure, you may experience mild swelling, bruising, or tightness around the eyes, which usually resolves within a few days. We recommend avoiding heavy exercise and strenuous activities for about a week to allow for proper healing.
-
We recommend waiting at least two weeks before applying eye makeup to avoid any irritation or infection. Our team will give you specific instructions based on your healing process.
-
We regularly welcome patients from across Canada and internationally who travel to Vancouver for treatment. When appropriate, virtual consultations can be arranged prior to your visit, allowing you to discuss your concerns, review treatment options, and plan your trip with confidence.
Post-treatment swelling is typically mild. Many out-of-town patients choose to arrive the day before their procedure to get a good night's rest and are often able to fly home later the same day following treatment. Our team will provide personalized aftercare instructions and can advise you on the most appropriate travel plans based on your individual situation.
