The characteristic of the epicanthal fold that commonly appears in East Asians is
that the skin and muscle at the inner corner of the eye wrap around the eye tightly, close to the eye,
forming a long, hook-shaped fold that blocks the inner corner.
So, in order to remove the hook-shaped epicanthal fold that extends downward like a hook,
people undergo [inner corner eye surgery].

However, some people do not feel that the inner corner of the eye is tightly blocked,
but have a pronounced hook-shaped fold,
so this feature stands out to them especially.
For these people, no more and no less,
they simply want the downward-extending hook-shaped lower part removed.
The surgery performed in these cases is [non-incisional inner corner eye surgery].

A typical inner corner eye surgery can remove this hook-shaped fold,
but for people whose inner corner has already opened enough that the pink flesh at the inner eye corner is moderately visible,
further surgery can make the result look excessive.
Unlike that, non-incisional inner corner eye surgery
does not remove the hook fold by opening the inner corner in the same way as ordinary inner corner surgery;
instead, while minimizing the degree of opening as much as possible,
it removes only the downward-extending hook-shaped fold.

Non-incisional inner corner eye surgery is a procedure that creates a big effect through subtle changes.
From one perspective, it may seem like there is not a large difference,
but for the person undergoing surgery, satisfaction is high because it improves something they have been paying attention to for a long time.
Because it is a surgery that requires incision and tissue dissection, like inner corner eye surgery,
the stitches at the sutured area need to remain for about a week.
However,
because the surgical area is small and not deep, swelling and recovery are relatively favorable,
and it is generally an easier procedure to undergo without the heavy recovery burden of surgeries like double eyelid surgery or outer corner eye surgery.
Even 10 months after surgery,
there has been no recurrence of the hook-shaped fold at the surgical site,
and there has been no case of the surgical area becoming overly closed due to a mistake;
it has been maintained well.
