How much more should I look into epicanthoplasty clinics?

It is said that East Asian eye shapes, compared with Western eye shapes,
can sometimes give a somewhat closed-off impression.
For these reasons, people who want to improve the inner corners of their eyes
say they have searched for epicanthoplasty clinics.
Canthoplasty, which refers to epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, and lower canthoplasty,
can create a more open, refreshing eye appearance
and reduce a closed-off look to create a natural eye shape, which is why it receives a lot of attention.
Because the eyes have a major impact on first impressions,
we would like to say that those with a blocked, heavy-looking eye shape can consider canthoplasty for a clearer improvement.
Those who want to make their eyes look larger due to a complex about small eyes
should not simply insist on canthoplasty, but should first find out which process is right for them
through consultation and reduce the burden with a customized solution.
Recently, because people wear masks, attention inevitably focuses more on the eyes,
and more people are seeking improvement for eyes that look small or closed-off.
Because access to canthoplasty has become easier, many people do not think carefully about which method would be effective.
In the case of canthoplasty, if the incision is excessive or an unnecessary excision is performed,
the result may actually conflict with your existing image, so it is important to open the area by an appropriate amount.
Shall we look at canthoplasty methods, which can vary depending on each individual?

1. Lower canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s lower canthoplasty targets the one-third point of the lower eyelid margin,
using a method that lowers the lower eyelid at the outer part of the iris
to create a softer eye shape.
Depending on the individual eye condition, it lengthens the horizontal width of the eyes and lowers the outer corners,
making the eye angle gentler and improving the eyes into a softer, kinder-looking shape.
- Cases where lower canthoplasty may be needed
1. When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the impression look sharp
2. When the vertical width above and below the iris is short
3. When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look closed-off
4. When results are unsatisfactory even after epicanthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty
5. When the eyes appear drawn inward after epicanthoplasty
This surgery enlarges the eyes by increasing their vertical length, improving a closed and blocked-looking
eye shape into large, clear, open-looking eyes, helping create a softer image.

2. Lateral canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is performed when the horizontal eye length is short and the outer corners are slightly lifted.
As a canthoplasty procedure, it opens the closed-looking outer corner area through an incision
and fixes it to the outer periosteum, improving the eyes by expanding their horizontal length.

- Cases where adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty may be needed
1. Eyes that appear drawn inward toward the center
2. When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the impression look strong
3. If you had lateral canthoplasty but the area has reattached
4. If the eyes look cramped because the horizontal width is narrow
5. If you want larger, more open-looking eyes
If the outer corners of the eyes are upturned and make the impression look sharp, opening the eye corners can help create a more
gentle, kind, and soft impression.
Because the outer corners of the eyes are extended outward, the horizontal length of the eyes also appears longer,
making it possible to improve them into a longer, more open-looking eye shape.

3. Dual Canthoplasty
Dual canthoplasty at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery increases both the horizontal and vertical width of the eyes, creating a larger,
more open eye shape and softening sharp, intense-looking eyes through image-enhancing eye surgery.
By improving the eye shape through canthoplasty, it creates a softer and more refreshed look.
- Cases where dual canthoplasty is needed
1. If the eyes appear too close together because the space between the brows is narrow
2. If the eyes look cramped because the horizontal width is narrow
3. If epicanthoplasty is not possible because the eyes are close together
4. If you did not see results from epicanthoplasty
5. If the outer corners of the eyes are upturned and make the impression look fierce

4. Epicanthoplasty
The scarless epicanthoplasty at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery differs from conventional epicanthoplasty by using an inner incision, making scars
almost invisible. It involves a minimal incision on the upper eyelid and releases the Mongolian fold, widening not only the horizontal
but also the vertical width for larger, more open-looking eyes.

- Cases where scarless epicanthoplasty is needed
1. If the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow
2. If the space between the eyes looks wide due to Mongolian folds
3. If the front eye shape slopes downward in a pointed way, making the impression look sharp
4. If you want a more open-looking eye shape by combining it with double-eyelid surgery
5. If 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 part of the eye and suturing from the inside, reducing scarring while lengthening the horizontal eye width
to create a more open, softer eye shape and impression.
Because even a slight change to the eyes can have a major impact on the overall image,
it is better to begin more carefully.
Since an undesired shape may result, this solution appears to place great importance on the medical team’s experience and know-how.
In recent years, as a beautiful appearance has become an essential feature in today’s society,
those who feel stressed because their eyes are short horizontally or look cramped
have been able to achieve results similar to positive reviews of epicanthoplasty clinics.
At our clinic, we analyze each individual’s eye condition and establish a tailored plan,
and we operate a postoperative recovery care system, so patients can generally return to daily life relatively quickly.
Since the medical team carries out this entire process directly,
we would like to say that patient satisfaction can be considered high.
If you are looking into canthoplasty because your eyes look heavy or closed-off
It may be a good idea to visit the clinic in person for a consultation, then choose the eye shape that best suits you.
