Hello.

Today, together with the director,

we’re going to take a look at an

epicanthoplasty method that can be performed

while reducing concerns about scars.

One of the biggest worries for people

considering epicanthoplasty is

scarring.

In the past, epicanthoplasty methods often

involved directly cutting the epicanthal fold,

so after surgery, the inner corner of the eye would often appear raised

or leave scars.

But as surgical techniques have advanced,

epicanthoplasty can now be performed

in ways that leave almost no scar

at the inner corner of the eye.

The epicanthoplasty methods of the past

simply worked by cutting and opening the fold.

Of course, this method could widen the eye shape,

but because the incision line was visible near the center of the eye,

there were many cases where it remained

as a white, line-shaped scar.

Also, because the method was performed without considering

the pulling force and tension of the skin,

problems also occurred during recovery, such as the inner part of the eye

being lifted or the eye shape itself becoming asymmetrical.

Recent epicanthoplasty procedures have evolved into a more precise and anatomical approach

to address previously criticized drawbacks such as excessive exposure

or artificial-looking scarring.

At present, surgery is performed not simply as a matter of cutting the skin,

but around two core techniques: micro-design incision and scar-concealing suturing.

The incision line is carefully designed

along the natural curved fold at the inner corner of the eye

and the direction of the skin texture,

minimizing the visibility of scars from the outside.

It is also planned by considering the direction of skin tension

and even the movement of the tissue,

so that the incision line can blend naturally into the skin.

In addition, the suturing process is also performed

in a way that hides the scar within the inner structure where the skin folds,

so after recovery, a more natural

and softer impression can be expected.

Above all, a recent epicanthoplasty

is not simply a surgery to make the eyes look bigger,

but an important change in that it is performed with the goal of improving a harmonious image

by considering each person’s eye structure and facial proportions.

When suturing, too,

by considering the different tension between the outer and inner parts of the skin,

the surgical incision area is securely fixed

so that it does not open up, and the procedure is completed.

Through this epicanthoplasty method,

it can help reduce the likelihood of deformation of the eye corner

and symptoms of looseness or lifting.

The most important point in epicanthoplasty methods is

'preserving the original curve of the inner corner of the eye.'

Rather than simply opening it as much as possible because of a tight epicanthal fold,

a design should be planned that can look natural

by comprehensively considering individual characteristics such as the thickness of the epicanthal fold,

the width of the nose bridge, and the proportions of the eyes.

If planned in this way,

it is possible to expect a 'natural epicanthoplasty' result

that opens up the eye shape while making the surgical traces

hard to see.

In short, the key point of epicanthoplasty methods is not simple expansion,

but how naturally it harmonizes with the face.

The recent trend in epicanthoplasty is shifting toward valuing naturalness above artificial change.

The surgical incision line should be hidden as much as possible,

while micro-design should minimize any skin lifting

or visible scarring on the surface.

It is also important to consider the overall balance and proportions of the eye shape.

Today, we introduced the latest trends in epicanthoplasty methods

that can provide natural-looking results without visible scars.

Although epicanthoplasty may seem simple on the surface, the delicacy of the design and suturing

can have a major impact on the surgical outcome.
