What are the dangers of opening the eyes when you are old?

The main purpose of canthoplasty is to enlarge the eyes, so many people who love beauty will choose double eyelid surgery to make their eyes bigger. However, although the eyes become bigger after canthoplasty, it also brings harm. People's skin gradually becomes loose with age, and the skin around the eyes will droop, which will make them uglier. Let’s take a look at the dangers of opening the eyes when you get older.

There are two main methods of canthoplasty: epicanthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty. The main purpose of canthoplasty is to remove the excess skin at the inner corner of the eye, enlarge the palpebral fissure, and shorten the distance between the two eyes. Canthoplasty mainly involves cutting the outer mucosa of the outer canthus to extend the horizontal width of the eye.

What are the dangers of opening the canthus when you are old?

1. People with scar-prone constitution cannot undergo canthoplasty surgery. Generally, there will be a small scar right after the operation, but it will usually disappear slowly. However, if some people are not careful, or due to physical problems, it is very likely that scars will be left at the surgical site.

2. Although canthoplasty can make the eyes bigger, there may be a risk of eye hyperplasia after the procedure. Many of these hyperplasias will improve over time, but of course there is also a risk of not getting better, so generally speaking it is best to go to the hospital and receive careful care if hyperplasia occurs.

3. If the doctor who performs the canthoplasty is not professional enough and has little experience, there is a high probability that mistakes will occur during the operation, damaging other important anatomical structures and leading to irreversible complications after the operation. Such complications will occur differently depending on the damaged structure.

4. If you want to open your eyes, you must go to a regular public hospital and let a professional and experienced doctor perform the surgery. This way, safety is guaranteed and the risk of the surgery will be lower. Never try to save money by going to low-priced private hospitals or small clinics. After all, your eyes are an important part of your body and you must be responsible for yourself.

5. After the canthoplasty surgery, you must follow the doctor's instructions to take care of your skin, and be careful about what you can't do and what you can't eat. This will allow the wound to recover as soon as possible and make the surgery more effective. Otherwise, you will regret it if you are left with scars.
