Permanent Medial Epicanthoplasty — What is it?

Medial Epicanthoplasty (revision)+Lateral Canthoplasty (revision)+Lower Eyelid Surgery (1 year 1 month)

Medial epicanthoplasty is a surgery that opens the inner eye corner to moderately expose the lacrimal lake.
SISUN Plastic Surgery's medial epicanthoplasty does not simply extend the 'length' of the inner eye corner,
but can also correct the 'shape' of the inner eye corner when lacrimal lake exposure is minimal or the epicanthal fold is severe.
When the intercanthal distance is wide, opening the downward-angled inner eye corner
also proportionally adjusts the facial ratio.

Medial Epicanthoplasty Surgical Candidates

  • Wide intercanthal
    distance
  • Eyes that appear
    constricted
  • Short horizontal
    eye length
  • Minimal lacrimal
    lake
    exposure
  • Excessive
    restoration cases

Epicanthal Fold — What is it?

Epicanthal Fold commonly seen in Asian eyes
One characteristic of Korean eyes is that the inner eye corners are covered by the Mongolian fold (epicanthal fold).
This epicanthal fold covers the inner eye corner, creating a hook-shaped appearance and hiding the front double eyelid crease line.
Additionally, it covers the pupil, making the eyes look constricted and fierce.
In such cases, Removing the Mongolian fold is necessary to achieve an ideal eye appearance.
Various Forms of Medial Epicanthoplasty Epicanthal Fold
  • Constricted inner eye corner

  • Vertically elongated epicanthal fold

  • Pointed hook shape

  • Round shape (fish eye)

If medial epicanthoplasty is performed too aggressively, the lacrimal lake becomes excessively exposed, causing hook-shaped deformity and scarring at the inner eye corner.
Therefore, the most important aspect when performing medial epicanthoplasty is
moderately exposing the lacrimal lake while correcting the shape of the inner eye corner.

01

Hook-shaped Canthoplasty

Hook-shaped Canthoplasty (revision)+Lateral Canthoplasty (revision)+Lower Eyelid Surgery (3 years 5 months)

When the inner eye corner is blocked and the horizontal eye length is short,
the inner eye corner is opened to moderately expose the lacrimal lake,
extend the horizontal eye length, and
remove the epicanthal fold to improve the hook-shaped eye appearance.

the epicanthal fold is removed without medial epicanthoplasty (no change in lacrimal lake exposure)
to improve the shape of the inner eye corner.

the inner eye corner is opened to remove the epicanthal fold and
correct the shape and lacrimal lake exposure level to improve the C-shaped inner eye corner.

<Problem Analysis>
- Hook-shaped eyes caused by the epicanthal fold
- The lacrimal lake is not exposed at all,
making the eyes look tight and constricted

STEP01

Design considering
the direction of inner eye corner
and degree of lacrimal lake exposure

STEP02

Incision of epicanthal fold
toward the inner eye

STEP03

Remove unnecessary skin around
the incision area and suture

After Surgery

- Epicanthal fold removed
- Hook-shaped eye improved
- Lacrimal lake moderately exposed
- Horizontal eye length extended
