Let’s Learn About the Effects of Lower Outer Canthoplasty and When It Is Needed!

Do many of you feel stressed because your eyes look small and tight?

To create a brighter, more open-looking eye shape,

many people undergo incision-based eyelid surgery along with canthoplasty.

Canthoplasty includes front canthoplasty, upper canthoplasty, outer canthoplasty, and lower canthoplasty,

and there is also lower outer canthoplasty, which combines outer canthoplasty and lower canthoplasty.

If the canthoplasty procedure is performed in a way that suits your eye shape,

you can expect your eyes to look more open and refreshing.

Today, let’s first take a closer look at what lower outer canthoplasty is

and what effects it has!

What Is Lower Outer Canthoplasty?

Lower outer canthoplasty is a procedure that combines

outer canthoplasty, which horizontally opens the outer corner of the eye

to make the eyes look longer,

and lower canthoplasty, which lowers the lower part of the outer corner

to create bigger, more open-looking eyes.

It is a canthoplasty that lets you experience the effects of both procedures at once.

In What Cases Is It Needed?

If you want long, open-looking eyes,

if the horizontal length of your eyes is short and they look tight,

or if you are not satisfied with the size of your eyes,

these can all be cases where lower outer canthoplasty may be needed.

Through this procedure, eyes that look tight and cramped

can be transformed into a softer, more open look.

So how is lower outer canthoplasty performed?

Dual Canthoplasty Procedure

First, after creating a design suited to the eye shape,

micro-incisions are made along the wrinkles around the eyes,

and the area behind and below the eye is pulled outward and then sutured.

Because the procedure corrects the outer corner of the eye rather than the front,

it can improve the length of the eye shape and the angle of the outer corner.

At the Same Time, Both the Length and Width of the Eyes

It can also widen both the length and width of the eyes at the same time,

helping improve them into a more defined and refreshing eye shape.

At VN, we analyze the appropriate eye size based on facial proportions,

and we carefully analyze the shape of the eyes, the spacing between the eyes, and their length

to perform customized canthoplasty at different angles.

Why Dual Canthoplasty Should Be Done at VN

In addition, to minimize the risk of reattachment,

the procedure is performed with firm fixation during canthoplasty.

Through delicate suturing, we have reduced concerns about scarring,

and our medical team is doing its best

to create balanced, soft-looking eyes.
