Let’s Learn About Epicanthoplasty Scar Reconstruction.

Hello, I am Choi Seung-hyeop, Director of Wink Plastic Surgery. Today’s topic is epicanthoplasty scar reconstruction and restoration.

After epicanthoplasty, scars may remain. In such cases, let’s look at what methods can be used to effectively remove epicanthoplasty scars.

First, if the scar is not long and is a depressed-type scar, a simple scar revision procedure may be performed. Scar revision, like general scar plastic surgery, involves removing the scar tissue and then suturing it again.

Next, what should be done if the scar is deep and long? In such cases, improvement can be achieved effectively by removing the scar while restoring the medial epicanthal fold.

So how is epicanthoplasty restoration performed? Epicanthoplasty restoration is a method of recreating the lost epicanthal fold by pulling in the surrounding skin, creating a flap from the nearby skin, and then reconstructing it.

Because the procedure can be carried out while removing the scar, it is considered an effective solution for epicanthoplasty scars.

For simple scars near the inner corner of the eye, scar revision is appropriate, while for deep and severe long scars, it is good to approach them by effectively removing them through epicanthoplasty restoration.

That concludes our look at epicanthoplasty scar reconstruction.
