How should you look for a place that is good at medial epicanthoplasty?

As the period of wearing masks becomes longer,
it is said that we naturally become more interested in improving the appearance of our eyes.
The eyes play an important role in determining a first impression,
and even a small change can create a major change in one’s image, so interest in improvement is only natural.
Those who are interested in finding a place that performs medial epicanthoplasty well
often have a complex about eyes that look stuffy or closed-in.
In general, many East Asians are genetically born with epicanthal folds,
and these folds can make the eyes look closed-in and make the distance between the eyes appear wider,
which may give a dull impression.
Because epicanthal folds can make the double-eyelid line appear blocked, creating a stuffy image,
the eyes may be improved through medial epicanthoplasty.
Before proceeding with medial epicanthoplasty,
it is best to design the surgery after thoroughly assessing the double-eyelid line and the shape of the epicanthal folds through sufficient consultation.
Methods for improving the horizontal length of the eyes include medial epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, lower canthoplasty, and dual canthoplasty.
Shall we take a look together at how each method is performed?
1. Lower canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s lower canthoplasty targets the lower eyelid at the outer part of the iris, around the outer 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 individual’s eye condition, it lengthens the horizontal width of the eyes and lowers the outer corners,
creating a gentler slope and a softer, kinder-looking eye shape.

Cases where lower canthoplasty may be needed
- When the outer corners of the eyes are upturned, 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 closed-in
- When the result is unsatisfactory even after medial or lateral canthoplasty
- When the eyes appear pulled inward after medial epicanthoplasty
Lower canthoplasty is a procedure that enlarges the eyes by increasing their vertical length, transforming a stuffy, closed-looking
eye shape into a larger, clearer, and more open appearance while increasing pupil exposure
and helping create a softer image.

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 upturned.
It opens the closed-looking outer corner of the eye through an incision and fixes it to the outer periosteum,
thereby improving and extending the horizontal length of the eyes.
By using dissolvable sutures inside the eyelid, it also allows for a faster return to daily life.
Cases where adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty may be needed
- Eyes that appear pulled inward toward the center
- When the outer corners of the eyes are upturned, making the impression look strong
- When a previous lateral canthoplasty has reattached
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making them look closed-in
- When a larger, more open-looking eye shape is desired
When the outer corners of the eyes turn upward and make the impression look sharp, opening the outer corners can create a gentler look
and help improve the overall impression to appear kind and soft. Because it extends the outer corners of the eyes outward,
the horizontal length of the eyes also appears longer, improving the eyes into a long, open look.

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,
and is an image-enhancing eye surgery that softens a sleek, sharp eye shape. Through canthoplasty, it effectively
improves the eye shape, creating a softer and more refreshed look.
Candidates for Dual Canthoplasty
- When the space between the eyes is narrow and the eyes appear too close together
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow and the eyes look closed or stuffy
- When the eyes are close together and medial epicanthoplasty is not possible
- When there was little effect from previous medial epicanthoplasty
- When the outer corners of the eyes are upturned, making the impression look sharp

4. Medial Epicanthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s scarless medial epicanthoplasty differs from conventional medial epicanthoplasty by using an inner incision, so scars are barely
visible. In addition, it makes 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,
and because swelling and scarring are minimal, daily activities can be resumed right away, helping transform a closed-off and sharp impression
into a refreshed and gentle one.

When Scarless Medial Epicanthoplasty Is Needed
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow
- When the space between the eyes appears wide due to Mongolian folds
- When the front eye shape 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 medial epicanthoplasty without visible scarring

This surgical method improves the drawback of conventional medial epicanthoplasty, which often left scars, by making an incision on the inner front area of the eye
and suturing from the inside, resulting in minimal scarring while lengthening the horizontal eye line,
so you can achieve a refreshed, soft eye shape and impression.
Eye-opening surgery is highly preferred because it can make the overall image look noticeably different,
so it is important to visit a clinic with suitable reviews for posterior and lower canthoplasty and proceed with experienced medical professionals
who specialize in the procedure. Also, after a one-on-one customized consultation with medical staff highly 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 looking into clinics known for medial epicanthoplasty and searching for a clinic skilled in eye-opening surgery,
choose a clinic that performs eye-opening surgery well and operates a complete recovery-care system,
and experience a refreshed improvement at Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery.
