Can I have both canthoplasty and epicanthoplasty?

Eyes that look large and bright are what many people would describe as the ideal eye shape. Beautiful eyes can create a positive impression of the overall appearance and a likable image, so more and more people are making various efforts to improve eyes that look small or cramped into ones that appear larger and more defined. Among them, many people choose medical methods such as eye surgery. In particular, canthoplasty and epicanthoplasty can help correct eye size and the angle of the outer corners, which is why many people look into them to improve small-looking eyes.

Especially for people whose eyes are short in both horizontal and vertical length, or for those whose eye shape looks sharp, corner-repositioning surgery can be a suitable option. In the case of epicanthoplasty, it can be expected to relieve the cramped appearance at the inner corners by removing the Mongolian fold and opening up the front of the eyes. When performing canthoplasty, the outer corners are opened to extend the horizontal length, or the outer corner area is adjusted so the eyes can be changed into a shape that gives a softer impression.

Of course, since each person’s current eye condition is different, it is important to find the improvement method needed according to the overall condition of one’s eye shape and to discuss possible solutions thoroughly with the medical staff.

To create eyes that become naturally more defined while also appearing larger, it is important to provide customized treatment for each case, which can only differ from person to person. In the case of canthoplasty, it is a method suitable for people whose outer eyes appear narrower than the inner eyes, and it can increase the horizontal length. It can also be appropriate for people who do not have enough room in the front of the eyes for epicanthoplasty. It may also help those whose outer corners are especially upturned and look sharp. Depending on the case, lower canthoplasty may be performed together, lowering the eye corners that appear to have been pushed upward relative to the pupil, and creating a shape that looks softer and clearer.

The amount of space that can be opened at the outer part differs from person to person, so identifying the subtle degree and designing it depends on the medical staff’s know-how. For that reason, as in this clinic where one-on-one consultations with highly experienced plastic surgery specialists are provided, it is important to speak directly with the director and proceed with a systematic eye evaluation.

For some people, the Mongolian fold covering the inner part of the eyes can be the cause of that cramped feeling. In such cases, epicanthoplasty can remove the Mongolian fold and open up the space at the inner corners of the eyes, helping resolve the issues they are concerned about. In addition, when needed, a procedure called upper canthoplasty, which opens the area at an angle above 45 degrees, may be suggested to increase the exposure of the lacrimal caruncle in the upper inner area and provide a better approach.

These details must take into account a wide range of factors, including the specific shape and size of the eyes, the balance with the face, the horizontal and vertical proportions of the eyes, the starting point of the double eyelids, and the desired direction of improvement. Because of this, the consultation process with the director is important.

Depending on the person, some may want to enlarge the overall eyes, increase both the horizontal and vertical length, and even adjust the angle of the eye corners. For such people, EIGHT full corner surgery, which can include lower canthoplasty, canthoplasty, epicanthoplasty, and upper canthoplasty, may be helpful. It can be described as one of the all-in-one types of eye surgery. Since it is planned from a customized diagnosis, there are many possible options depending on the case. If you have enough discussion and communication, I think it may help you find stable solutions for the concerns you usually have and improve your appearance into a more attractive and gentle image.
