Will seamless eye opening cause hyperplasia?

Canthoplasty is a surgery that can make the eyes look bigger. Many people who love beauty will choose to have double eyelids, nose augmentation, jawbone shaving or canthoplasty through surgery. However, when opening your eyes, you must choose a regular hospital and an experienced doctor. Because eyes are very important to the human body, if a surgical error is made by mistake, it is very likely to cause lifelong and irreversible consequences. So will invisible canthoplasty cause hyperplasia?

Scars are marks left after the body's self-repair after skin damage. Any surgical incision, as long as the entire layer of skin is cut and reaches the dermis, will leave scars, and the growth of scars is a normal physiological process of wound healing.

According to the basic principles of plastic surgery, part of the incision during the epicanthoplasty operation can be hidden behind the double eyelid line and the eyelid edge, but part of the incision is exposed at the inner canthus. This mark can be seen within one to two months after the operation. However, the scar after the epicanthoplasty will become less and less obvious. Generally speaking, most patients say that about one month after the epicanthoplasty should be a more painful period. The scar at the inner canthus will be obviously raised, hard when touched, and may feel itchy.

However, the scars will gradually fade and soften about three to six months after the operation. Although there is still a slight difference in color from normal tissue, the marks can be well hidden by applying foundation, so there is no need to worry about scars.

To sum up, as long as the doctor who performs the canthoplasty is proficient in the technique, scars can be avoided. Scars from canthoplasty generally do not occur. In fact, scars from canthoplasty are caused by contracture scars, not by the incision during the canthoplasty surgery. It is recommended that those seeking beauty must go to a regular plastic surgery hospital for canthoplasty, so as to achieve a perfect and seamless effect.

Special care after surgery

① There will be some pain in the wound on the day of surgery, but it will gradually subside over time. Patients should not rush to take painkillers, as aspirin-like drugs will aggravate wound bleeding. At the same time, they should eat more fruits and fresh vegetables, and avoid eating irritating foods such as peppers.

② After the operation, you can apply pressure bandage or ice pack to the local wound, but the pressure should not be too high to avoid damaging the eyes.

③ After the epicanthoplasty surgery, patients should rest in a quiet and comfortable environment. Do not watch TV or read newspapers within one week after the operation. When resting in bed, it is best to lie in a semi-recumbent position with a raised pillow to prevent excessive eye fatigue or a low head position that may aggravate wound swelling.

④ Try to avoid getting the surgical site wet within 7 days after surgery to keep the surgical site clean and prevent infection. If there is blood scab or secretion on the wound, it can be wiped with sterile saline.
