Dual Canthoplasty for a More Open, Refreshing Eye Shape
As the period of wearing masks became longer,
more people began wanting larger eyes and a more open, refreshing eye shape.
Clear, refreshing eyes can give others a favorable impression,
so those who have concerns about their eyes may look into
dual canthoplasty to create a better image.
If the horizontal length of the eyes is usually short and the outer corners are lifted,
or if the eyes look narrow and give a stuffy impression,
you may want to make changes to your eyes through canthoplasty.
Before proceeding with canthoplasty, it is important to
identify the concerns with your own eyes, and for improvement that preserves your individuality,
you need a clinic that can provide a variety of solutions.
Rather than making a hasty decision,
it is wise to receive a customized solution through sufficient consultation with medical professionals.
Canthoplasty includes lateral canthoplasty, lower canthoplasty, epicanthoplasty, and dual canthoplasty,
and because each person’s eye condition and size are different, the solution also differs for each individual.
Then, shall we take a look at which types of canthoplasty may suit you?
1. Lower Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s lower canthoplasty targets the lower eyelid at the outer lower area of the iris, around the outer one-third of the lower eyelid margin,
and lowers the eyelid, aiming for a softer eye shape.
Depending on each person’s eye condition, it lengthens the horizontal width of the eyes and lowers the outer corners,
softening the eye angle, so a gentle and kind-looking eye shape can be expected.
Cases that may require lower canthoplasty
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the eyes look sharp
- When the vertical width above and below the iris is short
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look stuffy
- When you are not satisfied even after epicanthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty
- When the eyes look too close together after epicanthoplasty
Lower canthoplasty is a procedure that enlarges the eyes by increasing their vertical length, aiming to turn a stuffy, closed-looking
eye shape into open, larger, and clearer eyes while increasing pupil exposure,
and a softer image can be expected.
2. Lateral Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is performed when the eyes have a short horizontal length and are slightly upturned.
As a canthoplasty procedure, it opens the blocked outer corner of the eye through an incision and fixes it to the outer periosteum,
aiming to extend the horizontal length of the eyes.
By suturing the inside of the eyelid with dissolvable threads, it also aims to make the return to daily life less of a burden.
Cases that may require adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty
- Eyes that appear to be gathered inward toward the center
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the impression look strong
- When previous lateral canthoplasty has reattached
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look stuffy
- When you want larger, more open-looking eyes
When the outer corners of the eyes are upturned and make the expression look sharp, opening the outer corners aims for a gentler look
and an overall impression that appears kind and soft, while extending the outer corners of the eyes outward.
Because this also makes the horizontal length of the eyes appear longer, long, open-looking eyes are the aim.
3. Dual Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s dual canthoplasty increases both the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the eyes at the same time, creating larger, more open-looking eyes.
As an eye surgery that aims to give sharp and fierce-looking eyes a gentler impression, it uses canthoplasty
with the aim of a softer and more open-looking eye shape.
Candidates for Dual Canthoplasty
- When the distance between the brows is narrow and the eyes appear too close together
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making the eyes look closed-in
- When the eyes are close together and medial epicanthoplasty is not possible
- When you did not see sufficient results from medial epicanthoplasty
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the eyes look sharp
4. Medial Epicanthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s medial epicanthoplasty differs from conventional medial epicanthoplasty by using an inner incision, making scars
less of a burden. In addition, it uses minimal incision on the upper eyelid and releases the Mongolian fold, widening not only the horizontal width
but also the vertical width, aiming for larger, more open-looking eyes.
Because swelling and the scar burden are relatively low, returning to daily life tends to be less of a burden, and a closed-in and sharp impression
can be expected to become clearer and softer.
When Medial Epicanthoplasty Designed to Reduce the Scar Burden Is Needed
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow
- When Mongolian folds make the space between the eyes appear wide
- When the front of the eyes slopes downward sharply, making the expression look sharp
- When you want even more open-looking eyes by combining it with double-eyelid surgery
- When you want medial epicanthoplasty with a reduced scar burden
This surgical method is meant to make up for the scar burden of conventional medial epicanthoplasty by making an incision on the inner front area of the eye
and suturing from the inside, so the scar burden tends to be lower, while lengthening the horizontal dimension of the eye.
A clearer, softer eye shape and overall impression can be expected.
Canthoplasty is highly preferred because it can change how one’s impression looks,
so you can look through reviews of lower and lateral canthoplasty, but it is important to consult thoroughly with experienced medical professionals on whether the method is right for you before proceeding.
In addition, after a one-on-one personalized consultation with medical professionals experienced in eye surgery, your eye structure,
shape, facial proportions, and other factors should be considered when planning your canthoplasty.
