Hello, this is Director Lee Bohyeong of Note Plastic Surgery.
Today, I would like to talk about a question many people are curious about:
whether epicanthoplasty is necessary when you are concerned about a Mongolian fold.
Q. I’m concerned about a Mongolian fold. Is epicanthoplasty absolutely necessary?
In cases where the Mongolian fold is pronounced,
epicanthoplasty is a very effective procedure for making the eyes look clearer and more defined.
A Mongolian fold is the skin fold that covers the inner corner of the eye,
and it can make the eyes look smaller or create a heavy impression.
Epicanthoplasty corrects this fold to widen the horizontal length of the eyes,
and can improve the eye shape to look softer and more refined.
However, it is not a procedure that is absolutely necessary for everyone.
In some cases, double eyelid surgery alone is enough to achieve a refreshed eye shape,
while in other cases, considering the distance between the eyes and the facial proportions,
performing epicanthoplasty together may lead to a more harmonious result.
What matters most is a detailed analysis of each person’s eye structure and proportions
and applying a customized design.
Above all, it is important that a specialist carefully plans and performs the procedure
so that the overall balance and natural appearance of the eyes are maintained,
rather than simply making the eyes look bigger.
Through this, epicanthoplasty can go beyond simple correction
and help complete a natural and attractive eye shape.

When considering epicanthoplasty, the most important question is:
"How will this affect the harmony of my whole face?"
Epicanthoplasty is not simply a procedure that opens the inner corner of the eye,
but one that plays a role in smoothly connecting the horizontal proportions of the eyes with the overall impression.
It should be considered together with the distance between the eyes and nose,
the height of the double eyelid line, and the width of the face in order to produce
a natural and refined result.
Note Plastic Surgery does not simply judge whether epicanthoplasty should be done.
By comprehensively analyzing the patient’s eye structure and facial proportions,
we carefully plan whether epicanthoplasty is needed, or whether a better result can be achieved through another method.
Through this, we help you experience eyes that become even more natural
and harmonious over time.
