What is canthus? The “medial canthus” is a vertical fold of skin in front of the medial canthus, which hides the medial canthus, making the angle of the medial canthus smaller than that of people without medial canthus, and it also blocks part of the field of vision, so that people with double faces can only form a “half double”, which affects the beauty of the eyes. The beauty of the eye. In general, Asian people have varying degrees of canthus, and an open eye canthus can lengthen and increase the width of the eyelid line, making the eyes look much larger after canthoplasty. However, the inner canthus is prone to scarring after surgery, especially within six months, and the longer the recovery time, the better the recovery will be. In order to solve this situation, we must of course rely on “eye opening”. When we talk about opening the inner corner of the eye, we are not really opening the inner corner of the eye, but opening the inner canthus in front of the inner corner of the eye to reveal the structure of the inner corner of the eye. In principle, opening the outer corner of the eye is suitable for severe inner canthus, short and narrow lid cleft, to open the outer canthus, that is, the outer corner of the eye incision, in order to make the eyes larger surgery. All surgical operations are performed in a very limited area of the inner canthus, including surgical design, skin incision, orbicularis muscle freeing and loosening, local flap formation and transfer, and alignment suturing, each of which must be fine and accurate in order to achieve exquisite results. Double eyelid + eye opening = beautiful big eyes Double eyelid can achieve the effect of larger eyes, but this is only normal eyes without Mongolian folds, if there is a case of skin covering the inner corner of the eye, it is necessary to open the inner corner of the eye together to achieve better results. Open eye surgery (generally open the inner corner of the eye) is to design a suitable incision in the inner corner area, remove the excess superfluous skin from the inner corner of the eye, suture it at the dotted line position as shown in the picture, and relocate the inner corner of the eye toward the nose so that the deep pink tear mound is revealed, thus elongating the range of the eye socket. Why should double eyelids be done together with open eye surgery? Reason 1: Physiological defects Asian races generally have some inner canthus, some lighter, some heavier. Plastic surgery often combines the two procedures of inner canthus and double eyelid, which will make the eyes bigger and brighter. Reason 2: Beauty eye standards Eye surgery is not a matter of having double eyelids cut! The doctor must not only know the overall aesthetic concept, but also consider the overall design of the eye according to each person’s facial features and temperament beauty, in addition to shaping a natural and smooth heavy eyelid line, but also to make the eyebrow-eye distance appropriate, eye shape and facial coordination beauty, and bright and charming eyes. Reason 3: Overall beauty In general, eye length can be increased by 3-5 mm through open eye surgery, and can generally increase by 2-4 mm after recovery, especially with double eyelid surgery for better results. Double eyelid to be done together with open eye angle, there is another reason: faster recovery, two surgeries together, one surgery to solve two problems, save time! What are the precautions after double eyelid surgery? 1, within 7 days after surgery try to avoid water on the surgical site; 2, open angle double eyelid surgery on the day of the wound will be some pain, but over time will gradually reduce. Patients should not rush to take painkillers, because aspirin-like drugs will aggravate the wound bleeding; 3, after surgery should try to rest more. Watch less TV and newspapers to avoid aggravating the wound swelling by overworking the eyes or positioning the head too low; 4. Ensure the surgical site is clean to prevent infection. If there is blood scab or secretion on the wound, use sterile saline to wipe it; 5. Avoid eating irritating food such as chili pepper; 6. Put pressure bandage on the local wound after open-eye double eyelid surgery, and use cold compress with ice bag within 24 hours, but the pressure should not be large to avoid damaging the eye. Once bleeding and hematoma occur after surgery, you should follow up with the hospital in time; 7, strictly comply with the doctor’s orders to take medication and follow-up. In addition, the inner corner of the eye is prone to scarring, which is something that the patient needs to think twice about. Whether the patient is scarred or not is also closely related to the post-operative results and needs to be brought to the attention of the patient. Some patients will have scar growth in the inner canthus after surgery, which is characterized by redness of the local incision area and hard scarring.
