Hello, this is Inique Plastic Surgery.

In addition to double eyelid surgery and epicanthoplasty, which are the most basic forms of plastic surgery,

many people are considering lateral canthoplasty.

In the case of eye surgery, even a small difference can have a big impact on your impression,

so it should be chosen carefully after thorough research and multiple consultations.

That is why today, we will introduce Inique’s unique lateral canthoplasty method,

which can help you achieve clearer eyes through customized canthal surgery

and is designed to avoid side effects.

First, canthal surgery is a customized procedure based on the design desired by the patient,

allowing for larger and more attractive eyes.

By performing the surgery according to the type of eye shape the patient wants,

the constricted areas of the eyes are opened up,

creating a brighter and clearer eye appearance.

At Inique, lateral canthoplasty is performed through two types.

Let’s take a closer look!

The first is Inique’s safe lateral canthoplasty; the other type is lower lateral canthoplasty (dual canthoplasty).

First, in the case of safe lateral canthoplasty,

this is a surgical method that can reduce the exposure of red flesh, a side effect of lateral canthoplasty.

The most common side effect of lateral canthoplasty, exposure of red flesh or inner tissue,

occurs when the skin is excessively removed and the inner mucosa becomes exposed outward.

When the conjunctiva is exposed, various symptoms such as redness, eye irritation, frequent conjunctivitis,

and other discomforts in daily life can occur.

That is why Inique performs safe lateral canthoplasty that does not expose the mucosa.

By separating the skin and mucosa, only the amount of mucosa that is necessary is removed,

opening the eyes naturally while removing less skin than mucosa,

thereby fundamentally preventing external exposure of the mucosa.

Next, let’s look at lower lateral canthoplasty.

Lower lateral canthoplasty is often referred to as external canthopexy or outer corner lowering surgery.

This surgery is recommended for people who are often told that they look fierce because the outer corners of their eyes are very upturned.

While opening the outer part of the eyes through lateral canthoplasty,

the outer corners are fixed to the bone to create the ideal angle of 5 to 10 degrees.

This makes the impression look softer and gives the eyes a longer, clearer appearance.

This surgery adjusts the angle of the outer eye corner,

so if you have not liked your upturned eye shape,

we would like to say: no more stress—come to Inique.

There are many things to check when having eye surgery,

but one of the most important parts to pay attention to is whether the surgery is being performed with a design that suits you.

Since the eyes are one of the major factors that determine your impression,

the surgery should be carried out after consultation with a more careful and skilled doctor.

It is best to make your decision after receiving professional consultation at a clinic

with extensive surgical experience and know-how.
