Can epicanthoplasty in Gangnam be done naturally?
The weather that had been hot is becoming almost frighteningly cold,
so everyone, please be careful not to catch a cold!!!
On such cold days, our clothes get thicker,
and as the period of wearing masks due to COVID-19
has become longer, people’s attention is drawn more to the eyes,
so more people are looking into epicanthoplasty in Gangnam.
Many people who have complexes about their eyes seek improvement
and undergo double-eyelid surgery, but unlike what they expected,
if their eyes still look stuffy, they may consider canthoplasty.
Eyes that look blocked at both the inner and outer corners and appear stuffy
are often referred to as “clam-shaped eyes” in Korea.
For those with clam-shaped eyes, combining double-eyelid surgery with canthoplasty
can be considered a solution for creating a more open and refreshing eye shape.
Canthoplasty is divided into lateral canthoplasty, lowering canthoplasty, and epicanthoplasty.
For those with severe Mongolian folds or wide-set eyes,
epicanthoplasty, which opens and lengthens the inner corners of the eyes, may be performed for a more refreshed look.
Let’s take a look together at what types of canthoplasty there are and who may benefit from them.
1. Lowering canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s lowering canthoplasty targets the lower eyelid at the outer lower part of the iris, around the outer one-third of the lower eyelid margin,
and lowers the eyelid to create a softer eye shape.
Depending on each person’s eye condition, it lengthens the horizontal width of the eyes and lowers the outer corners, reducing the upward slant
to create a softer and gentler impression.
Cases that may require lowering canthoplasty
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, 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 satisfaction is low even after epicanthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty
- When the eyes look too close together after epicanthoplasty
Lowering canthoplasty increases the vertical length of the eyes, enlarging the eye size and transforming a stuffy, closed-looking
eye shape into a wide-open, large, and defined eye shape while increasing pupil exposure
and helping improve the overall image to a softer one.
2. 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 opens the blocked-looking outer corner area through an incision and fixes it to the outer periosteum,
thereby improving the eyes by expanding their horizontal length.
By suturing inside the eyelid with dissolvable threads, it also supports a quick return to daily life.
Cases that may require adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty
- Eyes that appear to be too close together
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the impression look strong
- When you have had lateral canthoplasty, but the area has closed up again
- 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 turn upward and make the impression look sharp, opening the outer corners helps create a gentler look
and improves 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, creating a long, open-looking eye shape.
3. Dual Canthoplasty
Dual Canthoplasty at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery increases both the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the eyes at the same time, creating larger, more open-looking eyes.
It is an image-enhancing eye surgery that softens a sharp, fierce eye shape through canthoplasty
and effectively improves the eye shape to create a softer, more open look.
Candidates for Dual Canthoplasty
- When the eyes look close together because the distance between the brows is narrow
- When the eyes look cramped because their horizontal width is narrow
- When epicanthoplasty is not possible because the eyes are close together
- When you did not see results from epicanthoplasty
- When the outer corners of the eyes are lifted, making the impression look sharp
4. Epicanthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery's scar-minimizing epicanthoplasty differs from conventional epicanthoplasty by using an inner incision, making scars almost
invisible. It also uses a minimal incision on the upper eyelid and releases the Mongolian fold, widening not only the horizontal
but also the vertical dimension to create larger, more open-looking eyes with high satisfaction.
With less swelling and scarring, you can return to daily life quickly, and a stuffy, sharp impression
can be changed into a more open and gentle one.
When Scar-Minimizing Epicanthoplasty Is Needed
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow
- When the space between the eyes looks wide due to Mongolian folds
- When the front of the eyes slopes downward to a pointed shape, 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 the drawback of conventional epicanthoplasty that often left scars by making an incision on the inner front of the eye
and suturing from the inside, resulting in less scarring while lengthening the horizontal dimension of the eyes
so you can have a more open, soft eye shape and impression.
Eye-opening surgery is highly preferred because it can make the overall image look significantly different,
so it is important to visit a clinic with suitable reviews for lateral and lower canthoplasty and proceed with an experienced medical team
that is right for you. In addition, after a one-on-one customized consultation with medical professionals experienced in eye surgery, your eye structure,
shape, and facial proportions should be considered to achieve a satisfying canthoplasty result that improves your impression.
If you are learning about Gangnam epicanthoplasty and looking for a clinic skilled in eye-opening surgery,
choose a clinic that performs eye-opening surgery well and also operates a complete recovery care system.
