The corner of the eye is where the upper lid meets the lower lid, also known as the canthus. The inner corner of the eye is the junction near the nose, called the “inner canthus”, and the outer corner of the eye is the junction near the temples, called the “outer canthus”. There are two surgical options for eye opening: 1. Opening the inner corner of the eye The inner canthus is an important feature typical of Oriental people, and the inner canthus covers the inner corner of the eye, making the eyes appear smaller and more lifeless. People with inner canthus can make their eyes look bigger and more attractive by opening the inner canthus. The effect of opening the inner canthus is related to the severity of the inner canthus, and the more serious the inner canthus is, the more obvious the effect of opening the inner canthus will be. In outpatient clinics, we often come across people who have big eyes and do not have inner canthus but still want to open the eye corners, in fact, for those who do not have inner canthus, opening the eye corners will not be of much help. Attached is a graded comparison chart of the inner canthus to see if you are suitable for eye opening. 2, open the outer corner of the eye, also known as the outer canthus enlargement, can make the eyelid crack get enlarged, can show the effect of lengthening the eyelid crack. What is the difference between opening the inner corner of the eye and opening the outer corner of the eye? Will eye opening leave scars? The answer is yes, the scar after eye opening is related to the individual’s physique, post-operative care, and the skill level of the doctor. After eye opening surgery, the scar will soften slowly over time and fade in color. Therefore, if you want to do eye opening, you have to pay attention to the following points: ① scar body is not suitable for people; ② eye distance is not suitable for people; ③ after the operation, you can apply ice packs locally; ④ after the operation, the stitches are usually removed in about 5 days, and the face can be washed normally in 7 days; ⑤ strictly follow the doctor’s instructions to take medication and follow up the consultation. Why do doctors always recommend double eyelid eye opening together? 1, physiological structure We Asian people have some canthus, some people lighter, some people heavier, plastic surgery is often the canthus and double eyelid surgery combined, will make the eyes bigger and brighter. 2, the aesthetic requirements of oculoplastic surgery is not cut double eyelids on the matter! Doctors not only need to know the concept of oriental aesthetics, but also according to each person’s facial features and personality temperament of the overall design of the eye, in addition to shaping a natural smooth blepharoplasty line, but also to make the eyebrow-eye distance is appropriate, the eye and face with the coordination of the beauty of the eyes bright and charming. 3, faster recovery The two surgeries are done together, a surgery to solve the two problems, 5-7 days after the operation are recovered! Save time! 4, the overall harmony Generally speaking, through the eye opening surgery can make the eye length increased by 3-5 millimeters, the recovery can generally increase 2-4 millimeters, especially with double eyelid surgery together with better results. Opening the inner corner of the eye is not really opening the inner corner of the eye, but only opening the inner canthus blocking the front of the inner corner of the eye to reveal the inner corner of the eye structure; while opening the outer corner of the eye is really opening the outer corner of the eye. You can’t just perform a full opening of the inner and outer corners; the actual results are not ideal. Which kind of eye opening surgery is suitable for different individual conditions needs to be analyzed with professional hospitals and doctors, and the surgery is chosen according to the condition of your own eyes and facial features.
