We often experience how important a person’s impression is in school life and social life. When we meet someone for the first time and do not yet know what kind of person they are, we tend to look at their appearance and judge them based on that impression. When talking about first impressions, the most important part of the face is the eyes. The shape of the eyes plays a very important role in determining a person’s overall appearance, to the point that when the eye shape changes, the entire impression of the face changes as well.

When the eye shape looks sleepy or the outer corners of the eyes are excessively raised, people often say the impression seems bad for some reason. That is why many people feel a great deal of stress about their upturned outer eye corners. In fact, people with raised outer corners can give off a look that feels as if they are glaring, even just when looking straight ahead.

Through #눈꼬리내리는수술, even lowering just the outer corners of the eyes can make the cheekbones appear less prominent, make the eyes look larger, and soften the overall facial impression. There are two ways to lower the outer corners of the eyes: #눈뒤트임 and #눈밑트임. Both create the effect of making the outer corners appear lower, but #뒤트임 is a procedure that directly lowers the outer eye corners, while #밑트임 is a procedure that rounds and lowers the area under the eyes so the eye shape looks droopier.

If you want to lower the outer eye corners significantly, a lower canthoplasty is often performed after lateral canthoplasty. Doing both procedures together has a synergistic effect in making the eyes look larger and the eye shape appear more drooped compared with doing only one procedure. However, lateral canthoplasty and lower canthoplasty, which both lower the outer corners of the eyes, cannot be done on the same day. Lower canthoplasty can be performed after at least three months have passed since lateral canthoplasty. The reason is that in #눈꼬리내리기뒤트임 surgery, if the outer canthus is fixed, it becomes difficult to turn the lower eyelid inward, so lower canthoplasty cannot be done immediately on the same day.

When the outer corners of the eyes are raised, using heavy eye makeup to make them look lower may be manageable for a day or two. But if you have to do it every day, the inconvenience is unavoidable. In places like swimming pools, where makeup cannot be worn, the raised outer corners will remain clearly visible. If you are worried because your outer eye corners are raised, do not hesitate to learn more about canthoplasty to lower the outer corners of the eyes. In the end, it can save you time and money spent on makeup, so do not forget that!
