If individuals desire larger eyes and feel double eyelid surgery alone is insufficient, doctors typically recommend concurrent epicanthoplasty. Both procedures can be performed simultaneously.Recovery time aligns with double eyelid surgery, resulting in a more harmonious eye shape, brighter eyes, and improved facial proportions!
Clinically prevalent canthoplasty techniques include: V-Y plication, scarless Z-plasty canthoplasty, and the four-flap method. The former addresses mild epicanthal folds, while the latter suits all types.Currently, most procedures adopt the double-V technique, enabling both significant enlargement and skillful incision concealment. This achieves truly scarless results, making it an ideal approach. Sutures are removed 4-5 days post-surgery, with makeup application and public appearances permissible after 7 days.
Key advantages of epicanthoplasty include:
1. Customized design based on individual temperament, facial structure, and features. Precise planning of double eyelid depth, width, and curvature ensures natural, seamless results achieved through skilled craftsmanship. Scars are virtually invisible, and eyes appear completely natural when closed with no trace of surgery.
2. It can make the appearance of the upper eyelid thinner, creating a charming and alluring look, giving you beautiful eyes. It also fully exposes the eyelid margin, achieving an effect similar to eyeliner.
III. Post-surgery, the widened and lengthened palpebral fissure visually adjusts the perceived size of the eyes.
IV. Eyelid surgery offers a dual benefit: no post-operative trauma or scarring, plus naturally curled lashes for a sexy, alluring look. Sutures can be removed in just three days, with eyes appearing natural and lasting after recovery—truly a treasure for beautiful eyes.
Proper post-operative care for canthoplasty effectively prevents unnecessary complications while maximizing results. Here are some useful tips for post-operative care:
1. Mild discomfort at the incision site is normal on the day of surgery but will gradually subside. Avoid taking painkillers immediately, as aspirin-based medications may increase bleeding.
2. Avoid getting the surgical area wet for 7 days post-op.
3. Apply gentle pressure bandaging or cold compresses to the incision site, but avoid excessive pressure to prevent eye injury. Seek immediate medical attention if persistent bleeding or severe bruising occurs.
VII. Additionally, avoid watching TV or reading newspapers for one week post-surgery. When resting in bed, maintain a semi-reclined position (by elevating pillows) to prevent eye strain or excessive swelling caused by a low head position.
