Because of the many stories saying that eye-opening surgeries reattach,
it is true that even at ordinary plastic surgery clinics, long-term before-and-after photos are hard to find.
The before-and-after progress photos that are easy to see and come across
are usually photos from the most ideal period, with no scars and no swelling,
typically between 3 months and 1 to 2 years after surgery.
That is, excluding progress photos taken within one month, when there may be scars or swelling,
and long-term progress photos showing results maintained for over 5 years.

The before-and-after photos at Rari Plastic Surgery are different.
They not only show swelling and scars as they can appear without Photoshop,
but also cover long-term results of more than 5 years without any embellishment.
The photo above is a before-and-after photo of the first lateral canthoplasty,
showing the condition before surgery and 8 years after surgery.

The eyes were small and cramped, with the outer corners tilted up very much,
but they were opened up clearly with Rari Plastic Surgery’s eye-corner lowering lateral canthoplasty,
and the results have been maintained well for a long time.
Rather than making only a slight horizontal opening,
the sharply raised outer corners were lowered downward as much as possible,
and the eye ends were opened as widely as they could be,
so you can see that, as the outer corners were lowered, the eyes became much larger than before surgery.

Because the eyes became larger by as much as, or even more than, the lowered outer corners,
the difference in eye size before and after surgery is very noticeable,
so it may seem as if the after photo was made larger than the before photo,
but these before-and-after photos were sized so that the proportions would be as similar as possible.
For an accurate comparison, please refer to the image below as well.
You can clearly see how good the effect was and how long it was maintained.
