| I used to think traveling was best when I went alone, but at some point I started to feel that I wanted to go with someone. After all, food tastes even better when there is someone to enjoy it with. Isn’t sharing, exchanging, and doing things together really interesting? So! This time, we’re going to spend some time looking at useful information about eye surgery together! Information grows in value the more it is shared, after all.^^ Then, shall we take a look at eye surgery together? |

| | Epicanthoplasty is a surgery that makes a horizontal incision at the outer corner of the eye and connects it to the conjunctiva on the inside of the eyelid. The medical term is lateral canthoplasty, and it is a surgery that expands the outer edge of the eye. | |

This type of epicanthoplasty is performed under either sedation anesthesia or local anesthesia, depending on the individual. The surgery takes about 20 to 30 minutes, but depending on the clinic, it may take up to an hour.

And epicanthoplasty, which does not require hospitalization, usually requires 1 to 2 outpatient visits. The stitches are removed about 5 days after surgery, and daily life is possible after 1 to 2 weeks.

For the first 3 days after epicanthoplasty, it is good to use cold compresses, and after that, warm compresses to reduce swelling. Also, keeping your head higher than your heart while lying down helps reduce swelling.

| | Meanwhile, it is recommended to start wearing contact lenses 3 weeks after the epicanthoplasty procedure, so please use glasses instead. This is because lenses that require you to open your eyes wide and stretch them can put stress on the treatment area. | |

Things you must keep in mind about the differences between incisional and non-incisional ptosis correction!

Incisional ptosis correction is a corrective method that involves making an incision in the eyelid to remove unnecessary tissue. Non-incisional ptosis correction makes tiny holes below the double-eyelid line and uses thread to perform the correction.

In incisional ptosis correction like this, the muscles around the eyes and the tarsal plate are lifted together and sutured through the incision. In non-incisional ptosis correction, the muscle is pulled with thread inserted through the holes, and knots are tied to correct the ptosis.

Incisional ptosis correction, which requires both incision and suturing, takes about an hour. By contrast, the non-incisional method, which does not require holes or suturing, has a shorter surgery time of about 20 minutes.

For people with thicker eyelid skin, incisional ptosis correction is recommended for proper results. On the other hand, if the skin is thin, non-incisional ptosis correction may provide sufficient results.

| | In particular, for eyes with little fat in the eyelids or where fat removal is not possible, non-incisional ptosis correction is performed. If there is a lot of fat or fat removal is possible, ptosis correction through an incision is generally more effective. | |
