Hello, this is I.NIQUE.

What does your eye shape look like?

Faces that are all different from person to person each have their own strengths and distinctive features.

Some people are born with a high nose,

and some are born with a slim face shape.

Some people may be satisfied with their own face,

while others want to take care of the areas they feel are lacking

and make themselves more beautiful.

In particular, even a small adjustment to the eye area can dramatically change the overall impression.

So today, let’s take a look at a personalized canthoplasty procedure

that creates a more beautiful and brighter eye shape.

Canthoplasty, which opens up the tight-looking areas of the eyes

and makes the eye shape look clearer and more refreshed,

comes in a wide variety of types.

At I.NIQUE, we specialize in four representative

canthoplasty procedures,

and depending on the surgical method,

you can transform into a newer and more beautiful eye shape.

I.NIQUE’s unique canthoplasty procedures, mini epicanthoplasty,

and the ideal eye shape-making epicanthoplasty, upper canthoplasty,

and safe lateral canthoplasty that does not raise concerns about mucosal exposure,

as well as lower lateral canthoplasty, which lowers the outer corner of the eye

while making the eye area look more open,

can all be performed in the most ideal way for you.

As shown in the photos,

fine canthoplasty can be performed for each area

according to the shape of your own eyes.

The eye shape changed through various canthoplasty procedures

looks clearer than before

and more natural.

How is such a dramatic change possible?

The reason is customized surgery.

By closely considering the eye shape each person wants

and their own eye structure,

customized surgery can create a more beautiful eye shape.

Mini epicanthoplasty, which many people consult about,

is a surgical method with less concern about side effects,

created with I.NIQUE’s proprietary technology.

Mini epicanthoplasty is a method developed to compensate for the shortcomings of standard epicanthoplasty.

It is used when you do not want too much of the inner eye corner to be exposed,

when you want to minimize scarring,

or when the eyes appear too close together,

and it corrects the inner corner of the eye.

It works by dissecting only the area where the Mongolian fold is located,

so the amount of opening is not large,

which is why it is characterized by very little scarring.

When you want to make a dramatic change to a tight-looking eye area,

the canthoplasty procedures most often chosen are epicanthoplasty and upper canthoplasty.

Epicanthoplasty trims the Mongolian fold

and makes the inner corner of the eye look more open,

allowing for a clearer and longer eye shape.

When the Mongolian fold is angled toward the upper 45-degree direction,

upper canthoplasty smooths and opens the front line of the double eyelid.

This is an effective procedure when the eyes look small

because of the shape of the inner eye corner,

or when the space between the eyebrows appears somewhat wide.

I.NIQUE puts safety first.

That is why, for lateral canthoplasty, which can cause side effects,

the skin and mucosa are separated to reduce mucosal exposure.

If only the necessary amount of mucosa is removed,

the eye area can be opened up more clearly,

and at the same time, the skin is removed less than the mucosa,

making it possible to block external exposure.

Lower lateral canthoplasty also fixes the outer corner of the eye to the outer bone after safe lateral canthoplasty,

creating the ideal angle of the outer eye corner

and giving a softer impression.

Today, we looked at various types of canthoplasty methods.

If you want a design that suits your eyes?

Choose I.NIQUE, which has the know-how to improve all types.

Until now, this has been I.NIQUE, as if you were beautiful from the very beginning.

Thank you.
