First of all, the basic concepts are different. Opening the corner of the eye refers to the operation of opening the inner corner. Opening the inner canthus is not really opening the inner canthus, but opening the inner canthus in front of the inner canthus to expose the inner canthus structure. The operation of the outer corner of the eye is completely different, which is really opening the outer corner of the eye-a special and important physiological structure. Surgery on the outer corner of the eye will destroy the special structure of the outer corner of the eye, and the recovery is poor.
The effect of external canthus surgery is not ideal. The disadvantages of the outer corner of the eye are as follows. Even if it can be enlarged, this part has no three-dimensional structure of eyelid edge and no eyelashes, which looks unnatural. Due to the limitation of orbital bone, the opening effect will be limited to some extent. Thin conjunctiva is not easy to operate and easy to retract and adhere. Conjunctiva eversion is easy to occur. To sum up, we can know that the operation of opening the inner corner of the eye is more acceptable, and it is easier to realize the desire of big eyes, and the effect of big eyes after operation is very good. External canthus surgery requires high skills from doctors, so if you want to do external canthus surgery, you must find an experienced plastic surgeon to ensure the postoperative effect and effectively reduce postoperative complications.
Method of opening inner canthus
First, the level of surgery is clear. Opening the corner of the eye seems simple, but in fact the local anatomical structure is complex. Only by clearly grasping the surgical level can we not destroy the fine structures such as lacrimal canaliculus and avoid unnecessary troubles.
Second, when opening canthus and double eyelid surgery at the same time, we should fully consider the influence of double eyelid shaping on the shape of inner canthus, so as to ensure the natural and harmonious effect after opening canthus surgery.
Third, with rich experience in eye beauty, we can accurately grasp the amount of skin excision when opening the corner of the eye, and achieve a delicate balance between achieving the effect of opening the corner of the eye and avoiding overcorrection.
Advantages of opening inner canthus
At present, there are many methods used in clinic, such as "V-Y" suture method, "Z" molding method and four-flap method. The former is suitable for mild epicanthus, while the latter is suitable for all kinds of epicanthus. It is an ideal operation with good effect and no obvious postoperative marks. At the same time, it can also integrate the seven-point positioning of double eyelids, minimally invasive degreasing, and change the shape of eyes as a whole to achieve a more perfect cosmetic effect.
But in general, opening the inner corner of the eye can mainly narrow the distance between the eyes, beautify the double eyelids and make the eyes bigger, while opening the corner of the eye can make the eyes longer. Although the shortcomings of the outer corner of the eye are more than those of the inner corner, there are also many people with the outer corner of the eye in clinic.
