What makes a clinic good at epicanthoplasty different?

As the period of wearing masks became longer,
people have been trying to improve concerns they have about their eyes.
In most cases, the double eyelids are thin or absent,
and the eyes may look somewhat closed off, so to change this,
many people look for a clinic known for performing epicanthoplasty well.
Epicanthoplasty can be considered when the distance between the eyes appears wide
and when Mongolian folds create a stuffy-looking impression,
for those who wish to have larger, clearer-looking eyes.
It is a method that improves stuffy-looking Mongolian folds
to create a more open and refreshing eye shape.
Improving the eye shape through epicanthoplasty can be a good option,
but before proceeding, it is important to understand the condition of your own eyes
and determine what should be improved, making sure the correction method is not simply following a trend,
but creates an ideal line that helps bring harmony
to the overall face.
At our clinic, through one-on-one customized consultations,
we reflect the line the patient wants and make efforts to ensure that the line harmonizes with the eye proportions
and the overall facial balance.
In addition to epicanthoplasty, let us look at other canthoplasty methods
that may be considered for improving the eye shape.
1. Lower Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery's lower canthoplasty is a procedure performed at the lower outer one-third of the eyelid margin, below the outer part of the iris,
by lowering the lower eyelid to create a softer eye shape.
Depending on the individual's eye condition, it can increase the horizontal length of the eyes and lower the outer corners, reducing the eye slant
to create a softer and gentler-looking eye shape.

Cases where lower canthoplasty may be needed
- When the outer corners of the eyes are raised, giving a sharp impression
- When the vertical width above and below the pupil is short
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making the eyes look stuffy
- When satisfaction is not achieved even after epicanthoplasty or lateral canthoplasty
- When the eyes appear too close together after epicanthoplasty
Lower canthoplasty increases the vertical length of the eyes to make them look larger, transforming a stuffy, closed-looking
eye shape into open, large, and defined eyes, while increasing pupil exposure
and helping create a softer image.

2. Lateral Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery's adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is a canthoplasty procedure performed when the horizontal length of the eyes is short and the corners are slightly raised.
It opens the stuffy, closed-looking outer corners of the eyes through an incision and fixes them to the outer periosteum,
thereby improving and expanding the horizontal length of the eyes.
By suturing inside the eyelid with dissolvable threads, it also allows for a faster return to daily life.
When adhesion-prevention lateral canthoplasty is needed
- When both eyes appear to be set too close toward the inner corners
- When the outer eye corners are upturned, making the impression look strong
- When a previous lateral canthoplasty has closed back up
- When the horizontal width of the eyes is narrow, making the eyes look stuffy
- When you want larger, more open-looking eyes
If the outer corners of the eyes are upturned 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 are extended outward,
the horizontal length of the eyes also appears longer, creating longer, more open-looking eyes.

3. Dual Canthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s dual canthoplasty increases both the horizontal and vertical width of the eyes at the same time, creating larger, more open-looking eyes.
As an image-enhancing eye surgery that softens a sharp and fierce-looking gaze, it effectively improves the eye shape through canthoplasty
and creates a softer, more open-looking eye appearance.
Candidates for Dual Canthoplasty
- When the eyes appear close together because the distance between the brows is narrow
- When the eyes look stuffy because the horizontal width is narrow
- When epicanthoplasty is not possible because the eyes are too close together
- When epicanthoplasty did not produce the desired effect
- When the outer corners of the eyes are raised, giving a sharp impression

4. Scarless Epicanthoplasty
Hyundai Aesthetic Surgery’s scarless epicanthoplasty differs from conventional epicanthoplasty by using an inner incision, so scars are barely
visible. In addition, it makes a minimal incision in the upper eyelid and releases the Mongolian fold, widening not only the horizontal width
but also the vertical width to create large, 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 space between the eyes looks wide due to Mongolian folds
- When the front eye shape slopes down 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 the drawback of conventional epicanthoplasty, which often left scars, by making an incision on the inner side of the front of the eye
and suturing from the inside, resulting in minimal scarring while lengthening the horizontal line of the eye.
This helps create a more open, softer eye shape and overall impression.
Eye canthoplasty is highly preferred because it can make the overall image look significantly different,
so it is important to visit a clinic that specializes in eye canthoplasty and proceed with experienced medical professionals
who can provide care. 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 and improve your overall impression.
