Can the enlarged eye corners be repaired?

Generally speaking, canthoplasty is considered a minor surgery, but if it is not done properly it will make your face look inconsistent with your eyes, which will not only affect the overall beauty, but also make you look like you have a pair of fake eyes, which is very uncomfortable to look at. The bigger the canthus, the better. You should choose the one that suits you based on your eye shape and not blindly follow the trend of plastic surgery.

If the inner canthus is opened too wide, you can do a revision surgery six months later.

If the inner canthus of the eye is too wide, the most effective solution is to undergo repair surgery. However, there are time constraints for repair surgery, and you must wait until half a year before you can have it. Because it took half a year for the scar from the first inner canthus opening to completely soften. In addition, according to the body's repair mechanism, it takes half a year for the tissue to fully recover after an epicanthoplasty operation. In order to reduce the secondary damage caused by the revision surgery, it is best for the patient to have the revision surgery six months later to save the situation where the inner canthus is enlarged.

What will happen if I have a larger canthoplasty and need to have a revision surgery within six months?

Patients who seek beauty treatments usually become anxious when they find that their inner canthus has become enlarged, but they should not be too impatient if they want to repair the inner canthus. If the patient ignores the doctor's advice and insists on having repair surgery within six months after inner canthus opening, the surgery will only make the eye uglier. Because both the epicanthoplasty and repair surgeries will cause damage to the canthus area, there is a period of scar proliferation after the injury, during which the scar will harden. If you perform repair surgery before your inner canthus has fully recovered, it will only cause the inner canthus scars to overlap, resulting in excessive proliferation of tissue at the inner canthus, which looks particularly unsightly.

How big is the best inner canthus opening?

Theoretically speaking, by opening the inner canthus, the length of the eye can be increased by 1-3mm, and by opening the outer canthus, the length of the eye can be increased by 2-4mm. This can effectively increase the length of the eye, shorten the excessively wide distance between the eyes, and add to the brilliance of the eyes.

However, not everyone needs to limit their canthus dilation to this degree. It depends on the actual situation of the patient and is combined with the standard of perfect eyes: that is, about 50-80% of the red tissue in the inner canthus can be seen, the distance between the eyes is between 32-36mm, the distance between the two outer canthuses is 85mm, the angle of the inner canthus is between 48-55 degrees, and the angle of the outer canthus is about 60 degrees.
