Which is better, the outer corner or the inner corner?
Outer canthus and inner canthus are eye operations for people with different needs, so it is best to choose the most suitable operation method according to their own eye conditions.
Generally speaking, people's eyes are divided into white eyeball, black eyeball and red tissue in the inner corner of the eye. The ideal eye is that the inner corner of the eye can see about 50-80% red tissue. As shown in the figure below:

Outer canthus surgery is a method to lengthen the outer canthus considering the short distance between the left and right eyes. External canthus surgery lengthens the lateral length of the eye through canthus surgery, and adjusts the reduction of the external canthus through canthus pull-down surgery to create smooth and beautiful eyes for you. This kind of operation is more suitable for people whose eyes are too short and the corners of their eyes are gouged out. It can create a feminine "half moon" eye shape for you. If it is performed together with double eyelid surgery, the operation effect will be better.

External canthus surgery can enlarge the lateral length of the eye, adjust the shape of the outer corner of the eye and shape a slender and beautiful eye shape.
What should I do if I open my eyes and retract them?
1, retraction within three months after operation is normal, so don't worry too much, just keep a good attitude.
2, open the inner corner of the eye surgery If the situation is still very serious after more than three months, you should go to the hospital for a second inner corner surgery.
3. The tension between the outer corner of the eye and the eye in the vertical direction is too large, and there is no extra skin in the outer corner of the eye. The eyes will be deformed after retraction, and there is no solution.

The difference between external angle and internal angle.
Different basic concepts
Opening the inner canthus: refers to the operation of opening the inner canthus, which opens the inner canthus skin in front of the inner canthus to expose the inner canthus structure, but does not really open the inner canthus.
Outer canthus: refers to the operation of the outer canthus, which is to really open the outer canthus. This kind of operation will destroy the special structure of the outer corner of the eye, and the operation risk is high.
According to different people
Open the inner corner of the eye: a person with small eyes and epicanthus.
External canthus: a person with small eyes and skin around the external canthus.
Different surgical methods
Open the inner corner of the eye: according to the direction of epicanthus, design a Z-shaped incision line, cut the skin and cross-stitch the flap.
Outer corner of eye: cut the mucous membrane on the eye side and extend the horizontal length.
Different surgical effects
Open the inner corner of the eye: the effect of magnifying the eye is more obvious and natural.
Outer corner of the eye: the effect of magnifying the eye will also be limited by the limitation of orbital bone, which is worse than opening the inner corner of the eye.
Different side effects of surgery
Open the inner corner of the eye: it may lead to scar hyperplasia, which will disappear by itself 3~6 months after operation. It is also possible that the skin flap is too thin, the suture tension is too tight, and the dosage of adrenaline is too large during anesthesia, which leads to skin flap necrosis.
External canthus: The external canthus has no three-dimensional structure and eyelashes, so it will not look natural after the operation; The conjunctiva of the outer corner of the eye is thin, which is difficult to operate, easy to retract and adhere, and the conjunctiva is everted.
