Eye Corner Surgery: How to Improve a Tight Mongolian Fold

Hello, this is Inique.

People each have different faces, body types, and personalities.

Even if there may be someone who looks alike, unless they are a doppelgänger, no one can be exactly the same.

Likewise, the eyes, nose, and mouth also each have different characteristics.

Some people are born with relatively large, striking eyes, while others have eyes that are not especially large and a tight Mongolian fold at the inner corners that makes the front of the eyes look blocked.

Because the eyes take up a large portion of the face, many people pay special attention to makeup and try to make their eye shape look clearer and more refreshing through eyeliner, but if the Mongolian fold is severe, such efforts alone may not fully cover it.

In addition to looking cramped, it can also make the overall impression seem tight and affect the shape of the eyes.

For those experiencing this kind of appearance, considering eye corner surgery may be necessary.

Today, Inique will explain how eye corner surgery is performed and, when needed, how it can be done naturally.

Eye corner surgery is a method of opening up the cramped parts of the eyes to improve them into a more refreshing eye shape.

If you have any of the following conditions, medial canthoplasty may be recommended.

First. The inner corners of the eyes are blocked by a Mongolian fold Second. The distance between the eyes is wide Third. The eyes look smaller because of the Mongolian fold Fourth. The eyes look short in length

Among Inique's eye corner procedures, "mini medial canthoplasty" is performed with more delicate features than conventional medial canthoplasty. With traditional medial canthoplasty, the dissection range during surgery was relatively large, the degree of opening was greater, and the scar area could appear wider.

However, Inique's eye corner surgery does not excessively open the inner corners of the eyes; instead, it focuses on refining only the area with the Mongolian fold and slightly tidying up the front part.

This method can minimize unnecessary damage to the eye tissue, and by reducing scarring that may occur during recovery, it can help achieve a more natural result.

One of the important points in eye corner surgery is the degree of exposure of the lacrimal caruncle. The lacrimal caruncle is the mucosal area of the red tissue located at the inner corner of the eye, and the term means a "pond where tears collect."

Because the lacrimal caruncle is an important structure that affects the shape and impression of the eyes, how much it is exposed during eye corner surgery can have a major effect on changes in appearance.

Therefore, carefully considering the degree of lacrimal caruncle exposure during surgery is very important for creating natural-looking eyes and a balanced impression.

The most ideal and least burdensome standard for lacrimal caruncle exposure is considered to be about one-third to two-thirds. If the lacrimal caruncle is exposed beyond this, it can give a sharp, severe impression, so the design must be approached with caution.

Even though eye corner surgery may seem simple, what ultimately matters is reducing damage, shortening the recovery period, and achieving delicate surgical results.

To do this, it is essential to understand various factors such as the individual's eyes and skin, then create an eye corner surgery plan and design accordingly, and proceed with personalized one-on-one surgery.

Today, together with Inique, we explained eye corner surgery, and when necessary, the importance of lacrimal caruncle exposure, among other points.
