Long-Term Follow-Up 4 Years and 8 Months After Epicanthoplasty Revision Surgery

When you look around at celebrities, Instagram, and Facebook, you can see a lot of pretty people.

Some people may really look as pretty in real life as they do in photos, but on the other hand, I think there are also cases where they look prettier because of Photoshop.

Because we often come across such attractive people, many people try to make changes to their current appearance, but

in this process, the results can go wrong, and the outcome they wanted

can end up being the exact opposite, leaving them dissatisfied.

Most people first consider eye surgery.

Due to the characteristics of East Asians, many people do not have double eyelids and have an epicanthic fold,

so double eyelid surgery and surgery to remove the epicanthic fold are often performed together.

However, if too much surgery is done during this process,

the eyes may look too close together, a scar from the inner corner crease may appear, or too much of the lacrimal caruncle may be exposed.

You may undergo surgery to become prettier, but if it instead becomes a source of insecurity, the stress would likely be severe.

If the epicanthic fold has been opened too much or the result looks unnatural,

there is a way to improve the eye shape by partially closing the epicanthic fold.

That is epicanthoplasty revision surgery!

In this case, after undergoing epicanthoplasty at another clinic,

the inner corner slopes sharply downward

and severe hollow scarring has also formed, making the person look harsh.

But after epicanthoplasty revision at our clinic, the sunken scar disappeared,

and the sharply pointed inner corner changed naturally into a rounded shape.

A red scar is visible after surgery, but if you look at the photo taken 4 years after surgery,

you can see that the red scar has been neatly gone!

However, just because you undergo epicanthoplasty revision

does not mean you will always return to the original, tightly closed appearance.

To accurately understand the current condition of the eyes and achieve better results,

it is important to properly assess how much the inner corner has been opened, plan the problem well, and correct it.

Who needs epicanthoplasty revision?

1. When the scar from the inner corner incision is severe
2. When the red lacrimal caruncle is excessively exposed
3. When the inner corner is too pointed
4. When the shape of the inner corner looks unnatural

To achieve good results, it is best to first identify the scars and problems caused by the previous surgery.

It is about figuring out where the problems are appearing and how to effectively overcome them.

That means planning and correcting them.
