In general, epicanthoplasty is performed because of an epicanthal fold. As people age, the epicanthal fold weakens, and the reddish tissue on the inner part of the eye naturally becomes visible. Therefore, it is better to think carefully and then proceed with epicanthoplasty.

This type of epicanthoplasty takes about 30 minutes, so it is finished quickly. However, because the inner corner of the eye and ligament tissue must be removed, sedation anesthesia is required.

Also, when performing epicanthoplasty, it is not good to be too ambitious and make the incision too large. If the reddish tissue on the inner part of the eye is overly exposed, it not only looks unattractive, but the eyes also appear unclear.

Usually, epicanthoplasty is done to correct the appearance of the eyes looking wide apart because the epicanthal fold surrounds the inner part of the eye.

During surgery, rather than removing the epicanthal fold completely, a little should be left behind so that the eyes look natural and unadorned. 

In addition, a false epicanthal fold refers to a situation where drooping eyelids make it look as if there is an epicanthal fold. In the case of a false epicanthal fold, epicanthoplasty can make the eye shape look unnatural, so it needs to be distinguished.

Tips on eyelid surgery care that I’m sharing only with you!

After double eyelid surgery, you need to use both cold and warm compresses. Cold compresses are suitable for reducing swelling, and warm compresses help improve blood circulation.

Also, after ptosis correction surgery, you should develop the habit of opening your eyes using only the strength of your eyes, without using your eyebrow muscles.. As a result, the double eyelid shape becomes clearer and the effect is better.

And with ptosis, you need to form good habits. If, even after surgery, you continue to use the eyebrow muscles instead of the eye muscles, the strength of the muscles may weaken and the corrective effect is likely to decrease.

Also, after eyelid surgery, you should not go to places with high indoor temperatures, such as a sauna. In addition, it is best to avoid strenuous exercise that raises your body temperature. 

There are cases where inflammation occurs after this kind of eyelid surgery. Although the symptoms that appear after surgery vary from person to person, for safety, you must apply antibiotic ointment so that inflammation does not develop at the surgical site.
