Upper epicanthoplasty with double eyelid surgery
Hello,
More than 50% of our visiting patients come through referrals,
and we have accumulated more than 2,000 surgical cases from existing referred patients.
We are Banni Plastic Surgery, practicing proper and honest care.

One of the representative procedures often performed together with double eyelid surgery is “eye opening” surgery.
Upper epicanthoplasty plays a very important role in improving a heavy-looking eye impression and balancing the spacing between the eyes.
Many people think that double eyelid surgery alone will make the eyes much bigger and more beautiful,
but in reality, creating the ideal eye shape may require more approaches than expected.
Today, we will focus on a real case of upper epicanthoplasty performed at our clinic,
and explain the principles and key points of the procedure, as well as Banni Plastic Surgery’s approach.
When Upper Epicanthoplasty Is Needed

Upper epicanthoplasty is effective even when the epicanthal fold covering the inner corner of the eye is not severe,
if the distance between the eyes is wide or the inner corners of the eyes appear rounded and heavy.
In particular, female patients often say they worry that although their eyes are large, the wide spacing between the eyes makes their facial features look spread out.
At times like this, gently opening the area above the inner corner of the eye through upper epicanthoplasty can make the eye shape look much clearer and more refined.
Key Points in Upper Epicanthoplasty

Upper epicanthoplasty is not simply a procedure to make the eyes bigger.
The key is naturalness and a design that is not excessive.
First, the distance between the eyes must be kept appropriate.
If it becomes too narrow, it can look awkward and artificial,
so delicate adjustment based on each person’s facial bone structure and eye size is necessary.
Second, the degree of medial lacrimal caruncle exposure is important.
If too much is exposed during upper epicanthoplasty, the eye shape can easily look sharp and unnatural.
Therefore, only a naturally visible amount should be opened.
Third, the harmony with the epicanthal fold must be considered.
If the epicanthal fold is severe, upper epicanthoplasty alone may have limitations,
so combining it with medial canthoplasty may produce a more natural result.
Case Before and After Upper Epicanthoplasty with Double Eyelid Surgery

The patient in the photo above had somewhat wide-set eyes
and was concerned that the rounded inner corners made the eyes look heavy.
At Banni Plastic Surgery, we performed natural adhesion double eyelid surgery and ptosis correction together,
while appropriately opening the inner corners of the eyes through upper epicanthoplasty.
As a result, the spacing between the eyes became more balanced,
and the eye shape looked clearer and more defined than before.
In addition, the double eyelid line and the power to open the eyes were improved at the same time,
making the overall impression sharper and more vibrant.
Benefits of Upper Epicanthoplasty with Double Eyelid Surgery

Because upper epicanthoplasty itself is not a large procedure,
bruising and swelling are minimal, and recovery tends to be quick.
It can also create a clearer eye shape without excessively lengthening the horizontal width of the eyes.
In particular, when combined with natural adhesion methods or ptosis correction,
it does not stop at simply making the eyes look bigger,
but can achieve both functional and aesthetic improvement at the same time.
Banni Plastic Surgery’s “Banjjak Eye Opening”

When people hear about upper epicanthoplasty, many think that every clinic performs the surgery in exactly the same way,
but in reality, each clinic has its own expertise and know-how,
so we recommend comparing carefully before making a choice.
Our Banjjak Eye Opening procedure at Banni Plastic Surgery
is a customized method that can greatly improve the overall impression of the eyes by applying front, back, upper, and lower eye opening as needed.
We enlarge the length and height of the eyes significantly while matching the individual’s image,
and within a range that does not cause side effects.
In addition, to speed recovery, we minimize scars and swelling,
which is also an advantage because it allows a quick return to daily life.
Side effects such as lower scleral show, conjunctival edema, and eyelash loss have also been significantly reduced,
and above all, the most satisfying point is the delicate design tailored to the individual’s eye shape and facial structure.
In particular, in the case of upper epicanthoplasty with double eyelid surgery,
we open only as much as needed according to the patient’s eye structure,
completing a natural and refined impression.

Upper epicanthoplasty with double eyelid surgery is not simply a procedure to make the eyes bigger.
Only when detailed design and skilled technique are combined with factors such as the distance between the eyes, the shape of the inner corners, and the relationship with the epicanthal fold,
can a satisfying result be achieved.
Our Banni Plastic Surgery completes natural yet clear eye shapes through extensive clinical experience and a systematic design process,
so if you are considering upper epicanthoplasty with double eyelid surgery,
please feel free to consult with us anytime to find the method best suited to you.
Thank you.
