Magic epicanthoplasty

Management and healing after the surgery

Swelling after the Magic epicanthoplasty is not severe.
As long as you follow the management directions, slight swelling will reduce its visibility after 3 days of the operation. The swelling disappears after 5 days of surgery.



So it can be said that there is no inconvenience to return your daily routines within a week because the swelling reduces in a short period of time. On the day after the operation, you must come back to sterilize your eyes and removing the dressings. And from the day after the removal of stitches, washing the face and applying casual make-up is permitted.

Example) Double eyelid surgery combined with Magic epicanthoplasty (from above, preoperative state, 5 days, 1 month, and 3 months postoperative states respectively).

Example) Only Magic epicanthoplasty undergone (from above, preoperative state, 5 days, 1 month, and 3 months postoperative states respectively).

Example) Non-incisional double eyelid surgery combined with Magic epicanthoplasty and lateral canthoplasty (from above, preoperative state, 1 month, and 3 months postoperative states respectively).

Before surgery, this patient had unbalanced double eyelids and hollow eyes due to the insufficiency of fat in eyelids.
For bigger and clear parallel double eyelids, we had done surgery magic epicanthoplasty and non-incisional double
eyelid surgery .
To form parallel(outline) double eyelids, removal of epicanthal fold (mongolian fold) is very important and essential
because it affects a lot to the shape of medial double eyelid.
These pictures show improvement of sunken eyelids after fat graft on eyelids.
After the surgery her eyes are now balanced with natural looking parallel double eyelids.

epicanthoplasty and double eyelid surgery

This patient visited Teuim to improve double eye lie line from past surgery.

Her double eyelid line was designed higher than the Mogolian fold’s tension line so her lines have faded away in her inner corner eyes and is covered by Mogolian fold.

After Magic epicanthoplasty the tension of Mongolian fold is released and inner corner double eyelid line is fixed so that the line is clear. Due to epicantho plasty bulging skin at her inner corner eye is now flat and natural.

In this case, the double eyelid line before surgery looked like it was out folder style but actually it just appeared to be one because inner corner was covered by Mongolian fold.

Usually, in-out line or outline is represented with some adequate improvement of Mongolian fold by epicanthoplasty.

In other words, the size of the double eyelid line or curve stays the same, but as the inner corner gets longer, the starting point of double eyelid line meets the starting point of the eyes and the in-out line is represented.

Many people often think that double eye lid surgery revision should be operated when one is not satisfied with somewhat awkward out line double eyelid. If the awkwardness is severe and needs ptosis correction is also required , the revision with epicanthoplasty may be necessary. However, partial double eyelid correction and magic epicanthoplasty cas be enough to make more natural and beautiful eyes.
Usually people with severe Mongolian fold should go under combined surgery which includeds epicanthoplasty and double eyelid surgery to change the structure of their eyes to make relatively high lined out- line double eyelid.
