Canthoplasty

Canthoplasty that uses
the ratio of my eyes

We require a specific design that takes into account
a number of factors, including as the distance
between the eyes, the distance between the outer
corner of the eye and the eye bone, and
the proportion of the front of the eye covered
by the epicanthus, rather than just increasing the size.

In the right way,
without excessiveness

Each eye shape is examined, and only procedures
that are required to complete a natural eye shape
without going overboard are carried out.
Furthermore, it is firmly secured to prevent
the slit area from reattaching over time
in order to preserve the form of the eyes.

Canthoplasty method
according to individual eye shape

¹
Front Canthoplasty

By enhancing the
epicanthus at
the front
of the outer corner of
the
eyes, you can
perceive the results
of
lengthening the eyes'
horizontal
and vertical
axes. Even after double
eyelid surgery, if your
eyes still seem
tiny or
stuffy, front canthoplasty
can help you achieve
natural-looking,
cool eyes.
²
Back Canthoplasty

Opens the back of the
eyes,
exposing the
hidden back whites,
giving swollen eyes
a larger, fresher
appearance.
Additionally, it is
possible to enhance
the appearance
of soft
eyes and make a positive
impression by altering
the angle of
the outer
corner of the eye and
gently reducing the
elevated outer
corner
of the eye.
³
Bottom Canthoplasty

It improves the outside
corner of the
eye similarly
to a back canthoplasty,
however a bottom
canthoplasty
improves
the height and direction of
the lower eyelid below
the eye, while
a back
canthoplasty improves the
direction or length of the
outer corner
of the eye.
You may make eyes
that are soft and gentle.

Possession of differentiated
medical technology and
advanced surgical equipment

With 20 years of specialized
knowledge, plastic surgeons,
many of whom are Yonsei University
graduates, provide
individualized
care both before and after 1:1
operation.

Surgical safety
assurance system

The Eight Plastic Surgery Clinic
contains an
uninterruptible
power supply (UPS) that
reliably
delivers energy, dantrolene to

prevent malignant hyperthermia,
and a syringe
pump to regulate
the pace of intravenous infusions.

An air shower system
and
an aseptic
clean room

We remove dust from the body
with a complete
aseptic clean
room system to avoid the entrance

of tiny microorganisms and an
air shower before
entering
the operation room so that we are

aseptically clean when we enter.
