Characteristics of Each Epicanthoplasty Location Explained by a Good Epicanthoplasty Clinic

<Thank You Epicanthoplasty>

If you have small, tight-looking eyes,

there is an eye surgery often considered along with double eyelid surgery.

That is epicanthoplasty.

Through epicanthoplasty, the shortcomings of an individual eye shape can be improved,

helping create beautiful eyes that suit the face

and a more favorable impression.

Epicanthoplasty is a surgery that opens the skin tissue at the corners of the eyes, such as the epicanthal fold, in an appropriate direction.

Depending on which area is opened,

it can be divided into inner epicanthoplasty, upper epicanthoplasty, outer epicanthoplasty, and lower epicanthoplasty.

Epicanthoplasty: Who can benefit from it?

If there is an epicanthal fold at the inner corner of the eye, or if double eyelid surgery alone does not create much change,

if the eyes are short and the space between the eyebrows appears wide, or if there is a lot of empty space on the face,

if the outer corners of the eyes are raised and give a strong impression,

or if the front part of the epicanthal fold slopes downward

and creates a sharp impression,

a good result can be expected when it is applied in these cases.

Then, by location, what characteristics does epicanthoplasty have?

Let’s take a look together with Thank You Plastic Surgery, a good epicanthoplasty clinic.

First, inner epicanthoplasty is a surgery that removes part of the epicanthal fold located at the inner corner of the eye

to expand the horizontal length of the eye.

As a result, not only does the eye appear larger, but when combined with double eyelid surgery,

the line becomes more visible,

creating a clearer eye shape.

In particular, due to the anatomical characteristics of East Asians,

many people in Korea have a well-developed epicanthal fold,

so many undergo inner epicanthoplasty.

Upper epicanthoplasty is a surgery that opens the inner canthus at the inner corner of the eye

diagonally upward.

There is a difference in the angle of opening compared to inner epicanthoplasty.

It is performed when the distance between the eyes is narrow

and there is a limit to removing the epicanthal fold with inner epicanthoplasty.

It can also be effective when you want the front part of the double eyelid line

to be more visible.

Next, outer epicanthoplasty

is a surgical method that opens the outer corner of the eye,

expands the horizontal length of the eye,

and makes the eyes appear larger.

If the back part of the eye is narrow and makes the eyes look small,

or if the distance between the eyes is narrow and inner epicanthoplasty is difficult to perform,

this method can be used.

Lastly, lower epicanthoplasty

is a surgery that adjusts the angle of the eye

by opening the lower part of the outer corner of the eye.​

It can also widen the vertical height of the eye.

It is mainly performed when the outer corners of the eyes are raised and give a sharp impression, or when the lower eyelid excessively covers the pupil.

The eyes are an area where even very small changes

can greatly alter the overall impression.

Therefore, before surgery, it is good to find a good epicanthoplasty clinic

and have a thorough consultation.

It is important to assess whether there is enough space to open,

which location should be opened and by how much, and how much of the pupil should be exposed,

then create a detailed surgical plan that matches the overall image

so you can receive a customized procedure.

Epicanthoplasty is a widely performed procedure that many people have undergone.

Because of this, many people think of it as simple.

However, if mucosal resection or dissection is not done properly,

there may be excessive exposure of the mucosa or lacrimal caruncle,

or scars may remain,

so it is best to choose a clinic carefully.

At Thank You Plastic Surgery, a good epicanthoplasty clinic,

we create large, beautiful eyes with fine angle adjustments and not overly extensive opening.

We perform surgery with the appropriate combination of procedures based on the eye shape

the individual wants and the double eyelid line,

and we use carefully designed incision and suturing to minimize scarring.

We also perform meticulous and delicate surgery

to prevent adhesion, where the opened area becomes attached again.

A board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in a variety of eye surgeries,

including epicanthoplasty, performs the procedures,

helping create eye shapes that suit each individual better.

If you have concerns about the eye area, such as small eyes, tight-looking eyes, or a sharp impression!
