Many people with single eyelids want to make their eyes look bigger, so they often use double eyelid tape. Some people claim that by regularly using double eyelid tape, the eyes will naturally become double eyelids. As a result, many people with single eyelids have started trying it out. So, can using double eyelid tape really make the eyes become double eyelids?
Can using double eyelid tape make the eyes become double eyelids?
Using double eyelid tape cannot make the eyes become double eyelids. The tape only adds a layer of material between the eyelids, visually creating the appearance of double eyelids. However, once the tape is removed, the eyelids will revert back to being single eyelids. Long-term use of double eyelid tape does not permanently change single eyelids into double eyelids.
Temporary double eyelids may appear when using double eyelid tape for a long time
If a person uses double eyelid tape for an extended period of time, temporary double eyelids may appear after removing the tape. This is due to the minimal amount of subcutaneous fat and the temporary shaping caused by long-term use of the tape. However, this effect is only temporary, and the tape needs to be reapplied after a certain period of time.
Long-term use of double eyelid tape can cause harm
Using double eyelid tape not only fails to create double eyelids but can also harm the skin of the eyelids. Common issues include eyelid relaxation and sagging when removing the tape, which accelerates eye aging. Additionally, long-term use of double eyelid tape may obstruct eyelid breathing and cause redness, swelling, itching, and other discomforts.
How to transition from single eyelids to double eyelids
If you want to permanently have double eyelids instead of temporary results from using double eyelid tape, the best approach is to seek professional beauty treatments at a reputable clinic, such as eyelid thread embedding or eyelid surgery. It is important to choose a reputable clinic, communicate thoroughly with the doctor before the procedure, and properly care for and maintain the eyelids after the treatment to ensure the desired double eyelid effect.
