We see everything in this world
through our eyes.
Our eyes also play a very important role in first impressions.
Many people are concerned because their eyes look small and closed off.
Even after undergoing double-eyelid surgery because the eyes looked small and closed off,
many patients ask, “Why do my eyes still not look bigger?”
Because each person’s eye condition is different,
even after double-eyelid surgery, the eyes often do not reach
the desired size.
In such cases, the size of the eyes and the closed-off look can be improved through posterior epicanthoplasty.
It may be possible to improve these concerns.
So, when is posterior epicanthoplasty needed?
Posterior epicanthoplasty not only helps improve eyes that look closed off,
but can also address eyes that appear drawn inward toward the center,
eyes with upturned outer corners that create a strong impression,
cases where a previous posterior epicanthoplasty has reattached,
eyes that look closed off due to a narrow horizontal width,
and concerns such as wanting larger, more open-looking eyes.
It is one of the surgical options that can help improve these concerns.
Shall we take a look at how our clinic performs epicanthoplasty?
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s adhesion-prevention posterior epicanthoplasty is a procedure for eyes with a short horizontal length
and a slightly upturned shape, designed to open the outer corners that appear closed off.
Through an incision, the outer eye corner is opened and fixed to the outer periosteum,
helping extend the horizontal length of the eyes.
At Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery, before surgery, we diagnose whether the area behind the outer eye corner is tightly closed
and check how much length can be opened in an upturned eye shape.
Next, after making an incision along the openable length, the tissue is dissected,
then fixed to the periosteum at the outer end of the lateral canthus,
refining the eye shape once more. Using dissolvable sutures,
we place fixation sutures inside the eyelid to open the posterior part of the eye
that looked closed off, increasing horizontal length and creating a more open, refreshing eye shape.
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s posterior epicanthoplasty uses dissolvable sutures inside the eyelid,
allowing a quick return to daily life,
which is an advantage for busy office workers who do not need to take separate time off.
It also allows preservation of the eyelashes,
reduces the chance of postoperative re-adhesion,
and lowers the likelihood of revision surgery through a procedure that prevents a D-shaped deformity,
resulting in high patient satisfaction after surgery.
Then, is it enough to simply perform posterior epicanthoplasty well?
After canthoplasty, careful post-operative recovery care is very important.
.
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s lateral canthoplasty is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive clinical experience,
beginning with a one-on-one customized consultation before surgery and a design suited to each patient,
and based on this, the actual surgery is carried out.
We also operate a system for fast recovery care and scar management,
helping to ease your concerns afterward.
Because even lateral canthoplasty alone can change the impression of your eyes,
those who have struggled with eyes that look stuffy or closed-off,
and those considering revision surgery because the canthoplasty has reattached,
may wish to receive a consultation at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery.
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery seeks the most beautiful harmony of aesthetics,
strives to create an ideal line, and provides procedures suited to each patient’s skin characteristics
with safety as our priority.
Because each person’s eye condition is different,
lateral canthoplasty should be performed only after sufficient consultation with medical staff.
From stuffy-looking eyes to bright, open-looking eyes,
so that we can help you achieve the look you want,
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery will do our very best to assist you.
