About this procedure
The choice between incisional and non-incisional is decided by skin thickness and the amount of excess fat, not by preference. Thin lids with little fat suit the buried-suture method, which takes about 30 minutes and settles within two weeks. Thicker lids, drooping skin or a previous failed procedure usually require the incisional method, which takes about an hour and shows visible swelling for three to four weeks.
