I thought a medial canthoplasty would make my eyes look clearer,
but instead they look harsher.
Hello, this is Ruho Plastic Surgery.
Medial canthoplasty can create a more open eye shape,
but over time some people begin to worry that it looks excessive.
After the procedure, some people feel their appearance has become unfamiliar,
or that their impression looks harsh and strong.

In particular, excessive exposure of the lacrimal caruncle
or noticeable scars can raise even deeper concerns.
That is why many people consider medial canthoplasty revision near Sinsa Station
for a natural yet defined eye shape.
In this post, I will explain when it may be needed
and what methods are used to improve it.
First case where improvement is needed
One reason people consider medial canthoplasty revision
is excessive exposure of the lacrimal caruncle.
The lacrimal caruncle is the pinkish tissue near the inner corner of the eye,
a small pocket-like area connected to the tear duct.
Before surgery, it is usually partially covered and not very visible,
but if the incision range during medial canthoplasty is too wide,
it can become directly exposed.
Then the following problems may occur.
✔️ The eyes may look red or tired
✔️ A sharp impression
✔️ The inner corner shape becomes unnaturally distorted
Second case where improvement is needed
The second reason is a hook-shaped distortion.
The inner corner is pulled downward from its original position
and may look bent like a "ㄱ" shape or a hook.
This happens when the incision direction deviates from the natural curve
or when scar tissue pulls the line downward,
causing the shape to settle lower.
Because the eye area does not open smoothly
and creates a stuffy or sharp impression,
many people find it uncomfortable.
Third case where improvement is needed

Because the medial canthoplasty area has thin skin and is sensitive,
even a small scar can be noticeable.
If the scar hardens after surgery
or the area around the incision line heals unevenly,
the line may look uneven and raised.
A scar that does not fade can also create a pulling sensation every time you open your eyes,
and because it is clearly visible in close-up photos,
it is an area that may need improvement.

If you are experiencing the three issues described above,
you may want to consider revision surgery.
It is not as simple as "covering it again."
- Identify the existing incision line and scar location
- After designing based on the remaining tissue,
incise the necessary areas and remove the Mongolian fold
- Reposition the skin and fix it in the desired shape
Before proceeding with revision, the first thing considered
is how to design it to create a natural eye shape.
Excessively exposed lacrimal caruncles are covered appropriately
to restore a softer impression,
and hook-shaped distortions are corrected by reshaping the line.
If the scar is prominent, the surrounding tissue is adjusted
and improvement is carried out in a way that reduces exposure.
The goal is to minimize traces of the previous surgery as much as possible
and promote a natural recovery.
