What is Canthoplasty?
Eyes with short width or inner part covered by epicanthus are fixed with canthoplasty in Korea.
There are different types of canthoplasty including epicanthoplasty, lateral canthoplasty, and later hotz. If one canthoplasty doesn’t give you satisfying effect, you can have more than two types of canthoplasty in Korea to create larger eyes.
Canthoplasty 01
Epicanthoplasty
Removes epicanthal fold to fix the eye lines.
It removes the fold that makes the distance between eyes look wide, and your eyes will look larger.
Lengthened horizontal width for larger eyes
Frontal angle adjusted for softer image
Detailed incisions and no scar
Canthoplasty 02
Lateral Canthoplasty
Incision is made at the tail of your eye to removes the skin and conjunctiva.
Lateral angle is adjusted for more refined and softer image.

Prevention of adhesion
Incisions on the inner part, no scars
Canthoplasty 03

Operated for those with narrow distance between eyes, narrow lateral side, and slanted eye tail. There is no visible scar after the surgery.

Incisions on inner conjunctiva, no scars left
Benefits of Canthoplasty
