Eye Surgery Considerations

[Clinic] community review

My eye height seemed fine, but the horizontal length was particularly short, so I had lateral canthoplasty. If both the horizontal and vertical dimensions had been short, my eyes would have been small but would not have looked odd. But because only the horizontal dimension was short, they looked more constricted. After the canthoplasty, the vertical dimension stayed the same while the horizontal dimension increased, and the constricted look disappeared. I heard that if too much sclera shows, the eyes can look protruding or the eye shape can look sharp. There is none of that; I am satisfied because it seems they performed the surgery so my eyes could become longer within the limit where my impression would not change too much. I wanted to improve what I wanted with as little surgery as possible. While everyone else recommended doing this and that, [Clinic] said lateral canthoplasty alone would be sufficient. When I entered the clinic, there were more people than I expected, and there was also a booklet in the lobby where I could view reviews all at once. Since it is a private clinic, I thought the director must have performed all of those procedures alone, which gave me confidence even before the consultation. During the consultation, they said men usually prefer increasing the horizontal eye length, and asked whether I was the same. When I said yes, they said they would open the outer corners appropriately with lateral canthoplasty to avoid complications. They explained in detail the surgical method, what I might look like before and after surgery, what care the clinic provides afterward, and when I should come in for follow-ups. They said it did not matter when I came for follow-ups, but after my stitches were removed, the swelling went down well and I thought the shape was fine, so I only went at the one-month mark. Even now, six months later, it has remained well without any issues. I was initially worried that the shape would reattach, but I do not think about that anymore. Personally, this was my most satisfying cosmetic procedure.
