If You Have Upturned Outer Eye Corners, Consider Outer Eye Corner Lowering Surgery

People of Mongolian descent in East Asia, that is, people from far eastern regions such as Korea, China, and Japan, tend to have upturned outer eye corners, which is how Mulan is portrayed in Disney cartoons. While this can seem mysterious and attractive to Western eyes, it can be a source of stress for those who have upturned outer eye corners.

Westerners, people from the Middle East, India, and Southeast Asia do not appear to have upturned outer eye corners, so their eyes can feel larger. Upturned outer eye corners can make the eyes look slanted, which can also make them feel smaller. In addition, when there is an epicanthal fold, the eyes may appear even more upturned and smaller, so for eyes with upturned outer corners, opening procedures along with double eyelid surgery can be important.

When outer eye corner lowering surgery is performed on eyes with upturned outer corners, it can not only lower the outer corners effectively but also make the eyes look larger, achieving two results with one procedure. In fact, selfies posted in reviews after outer eye corner lowering surgery often show that the outer corners look noticeably lower and the overall impression looks gentler.

There are two types of outer eye corner lowering surgery: outer corner lowering with a canthoplasty at the back, and Barbie lower eye surgery.

Barbie lower eye surgery is named because lower eye surgery is said to create eyes like a Barbie doll. It is also known as a procedure that many celebrities undergo because even when wearing circle lenses, the eyes can still look more defined afterward.

Outer corner lowering with a canthoplasty at the back is a surgery that directly lowers the outer eye corner, so the eye shape can look gentler, and the upturned outer corner can be corrected more directly.

If you have upturned outer eye corners, learn about outer eye corner lowering surgery and consult directly with an experienced plastic surgery specialist who has performed this procedure many times. Then find the surgical method that suits your eyes and undergo the procedure.

For people with severe upturned outer eye corners, outer corner lowering with a canthoplasty at the back may be performed more than once, and depending on each individual’s preference, some may choose to have lower eye surgery after outer corner lowering with a canthoplasty at the back. So please consider changing to a gentler impression and softer eye shape with the most suitable procedure.
