I looked into Gangnam epicanthoplasty in detail.

Eyes that look closed off at both the inner and outer corners and appear stuffy are commonly called “clam-shaped eyes.”
People with clam-shaped eyes often try to enhance their eye shape with makeup,
but when the eyes do not look as open and refreshed as they hoped, it can become stressful.
In the past, many people chose plastic surgery mainly for cosmetic purposes, but recently,
procedures are said to be performed with functional aspects taken into consideration as well.
Those interested in canthoplasty procedures such as epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, and lower canthoplasty
to create a more open-looking eye shape may look into Gangnam epicanthoplasty.
Opening the inner corner of the eye is called epicanthoplasty,
opening the outer corner of the eye is called lateral canthoplasty,
and lowering the outer corner of the eye is called lower canthoplasty.
Because there are many different types of canthoplasty, it is best to look into them carefully before making a decision.
Unlike double eyelid surgery, canthoplasty is intended to make the eyes look more open and refreshed,
so it can greatly help improve the overall impression,
and is also said to provide functional enhancement.
Improving clam-shaped eyes is good, but first, it is important to consider the harmony between your face and eyes
and carefully look into the procedure to create naturally large and defined eyes.
Now, let’s take a look at canthoplasty together.
First, let’s learn about lower canthoplasty.
Lower canthoplasty at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery targets the lower outer area of the eye below the outer part of the iris, around one-third of the lower eyelid margin,
and is a procedure that lowers the lower eyelid to create a softer eye shape.
Depending on each person’s eye condition, it lengthens the horizontal width of the eye and lowers the outer corner,
making the eye slant gentler and creating a softer, kinder-looking eye shape.

Cases where lower canthoplasty may be needed
- When the outer corners of the eyes are raised, making the impression 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 still not satisfied after epicanthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty
- When the eyes look too close together after epicanthoplasty
Lower canthoplasty is a procedure that increases the vertical length of the eyes and makes them appear larger, improving a stuffy, closed-off
eye shape into open, large, and clear-looking eyes, while increasing pupil exposure
and helping create a softer image.

Let’s learn about lateral canthoplasty.
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is performed when the horizontal length of the eyes is short and the outer corners are slightly raised.
It is a canthoplasty procedure that opens the blocked-looking outer corner through an incision and fixes it to the outer periosteum,
thereby improving the eyes by extending their horizontal length.
By using dissolvable sutures to stitch the inside of the eyelid,
it also allows for a quicker return to daily life.

Cases where adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty may be needed
- Eyes that appear to be set too close together
- When the outer corners of the eyes are raised, making the impression look strong
- When lateral canthoplasty was performed but the area 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 raised and make the impression look sharp, opening the eye corners can create a gentler look
and improve the impression to appear kind and soft. Because the outer corners of the eyes are extended outward,
the horizontal length of the eyes also appears longer, helping create long, open-looking eyes.

Let’s learn about dual canthoplasty.
Dual canthoplasty at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery increases both the horizontal and vertical width of the eyes, creating larger, more open-looking eyes.
It is an image-enhancing eye surgery that softens sharp and fierce-looking eyes through canthoplasty,
effectively improving the eye shape to create a softer and more open look.

Candidates for dual canthoplasty
- When the eyes look too close together because the distance between them is narrow
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look closed-in
- When epicanthoplasty is not possible because the eyes are close together
- When epicanthoplasty did not produce the desired effect
- When the outer corners of the eyes are raised, making the impression look sharp

Let’s learn about scarless epicanthoplasty.
Unlike conventional epicanthoplasty, scarless epicanthoplasty at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery uses an inner incision, so scars are barely
visible. It also uses a minimal incision on the upper eyelid and releases the Mongolian fold, widening not only the horizontal
but also the vertical width of the eyes to create larger, more open-looking eyes with high satisfaction.
With less swelling and scarring, you can return to daily life right away, helping transform a stuffy and sharp impression
into a clearer and softer one.
When scarless epicanthoplasty is needed
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow
- When the Mongolian fold makes the distance between the eyes look wide
- When the front part of the eyes slopes downward sharply, making the impression look sharp
- When you want a more open-looking eye shape by combining it with double-eyelid surgery
- When you want epicanthoplasty without visible scarring
This surgical method improves on the drawback of conventional epicanthoplasty, which often left scars, by making an incision on the inner front of the eye
and suturing from the inside, reducing scarring while lengthening the horizontal width of the eyes
so you can achieve a clearer, softer eye shape and impression.
Because eye canthoplasty is highly preferred for its ability to noticeably change one’s image,
it is important to visit a clinic skilled in eye canthoplasty that suits you and proceed with experienced medical professionals.
In addition, after a one-on-one customized consultation with medical staff experienced in eye surgery,
factors such as your eye structure, shape, and facial proportions should be considered to achieve a highly satisfying canthoplasty
and improve the overall impression.
