Upper eyelid incision
INDEX
This procedure adjusts the skin and overhang above the inner corner of the eye to naturally enhance the vertical width of the eye.
Unlike an epicanthoplasty, it does not involve cutting inward
; instead, it expands the visible area of the sclera “upward,“ creating a wide-open, three-dimensional eye appearance.
Recommended for people like this
- I want to make my eyes appear naturally larger vertically.
- I want to avoid double eyelid surgery, but I want that wide-eyed look.
- Concerned about eyes that look sleepy or heavy
- I want to change my look naturally.
Features of Our Clinic’s Epicanthoplasty
We meticulously assess the overhang of skin above the inner corner of the eye and the movement of the muscles,
adjusting the amount of tissue to be removed, the design, and the suture placement down to the millimeter.
Without excessive rounding up, ・A
gentle and charming impression ・A clean
and sophisticated mature look
We offer custom designs tailored to your desired look and eye balance.
We prioritize “natural vertical width expansion that minimizes the appearance of plastic surgery” by carefully selecting positions where scars are less noticeable.
Treatment Process
Design
We carefully share your ideal eye appearance through preoperative simulations while meticulously confirming vertical eye height, asymmetry, and eyelid coverage. Since even minimal
removal during upper eyelid surgery significantly alters appearance, we ensure
ample time on the day of surgery for final design adjustments while you view yourself in the mirror.
Anesthesia
Local anesthesia is used as the primary method, supplemented with nitrous oxide anesthesia as needed. You can
undergo surgery in a relaxed state.
surgery
The procedure takes approximately 30 minutes to 1 hour. Minimal adjustment is made to the skin above the inner corner of the eye, resulting in
a scar that is inconspicuous and easily concealed with makeup. We carefully suture the incision
, focusing on achieving a natural vertical width expansion and a subtle, unforced finish.
