Hello, this is Luho Plastic Surgery.
👁️ I thought epicanthoplasty would make my eyes look brighter,
but instead, it made me look more artificial.
Some people undergo epicanthoplasty dreaming of a more refined eye shape,
but end up considering revision because of unexpected scarring or excessive correction.
The inner corner of the eye is thin and moves a lot,
so even a small scar can look much larger.

As a result, the expression can change in an artificial way,
causing discomfort in appearance.
Sinsa Station epicanthoplasty revision
is more difficult than the initial surgery,
so there are many important points you need to know.
Epicanthoplasty: reasons for failure
It is often chosen in the hope of achieving eyes like a celebrity’s,
but it can lead to unexpected results.
❎ Excessive incision
An overly aggressive incision can disrupt the shape of the medial canthus,
causing scar exposure and an unnatural line.
❎ Scarring
Because the skin is thin and movement is frequent, scars are more visible.
In addition, excessive incision can leave redness and pronounced scarring.
❎ Skin tension
If skin tension is not properly distributed, the scar may be pulled tight,
creating a sharply opened appearance.
Because epicanthoplasty outcomes can change with even subtle adjustments,
a small error can alter the entire impression.

How to prevent failure in epicanthoplasty revision
Keep 'this' in mind.
This is not a surgery that simply covers the scar;
it is essential to 'analyze' the skin, mucosal tissue,
and muscle layer damaged by the previous incision at the same time.
The skin’s flexibility, the thickness of the remaining tissue,
and the location of the scar must be evaluated and examined.

Not everyone has the same eye structure,
and differences in the shape of the epicanthal fold, skin elasticity,
and the distance between the eyes are also important.
To reduce failure and achieve satisfying results,
rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method,
planning that reflects the characteristics of the eyes should come first.


Epicanthoplasty revision method
The surgical approach at Luho Plastic Surgery is as follows.
We analyze the failure of the previous surgery
and perform revision while considering scar improvement.
In addition, with 1:1 customized surgery,
we complete a natural eye shape with the appropriate angle and shape
that matches each person’s proportions.

Sinsa Station epicanthoplasty revision,
when it is possible
'Doctor, when can epicanthoplasty revision be performed?'
This is one of the most common questions we hear during consultations.
| ✔️ When adhesions at the surgical site have disappeared ✔️ When there is no redness or swelling ✔️ After the scar tissue has stabilized ✔️ At least 6 months after surgery |
In most cases of epicanthoplasty revision,
it is safer to make a plan after the tissue has had enough time to recover.

A careful choice for reconstruction
Sinsa Station epicanthoplasty revision
Restoring epicanthoplasty
is a delicate surgical process that reconstructs
the anatomical structure of the inner corner of the eye.
By receiving thorough consultation from experienced medical staff
and being diagnosed for tissue condition and degree of scarring,
you can achieve satisfying results.
If you are considering revision,
please discuss thoroughly with the medical staff
what is possible for your eye structure
and which approach would look natural.
