It has now been about 2 weeks since I had lateral and lower canthoplasty at a plastic surgery clinic. Before the surgery, I often heard that I looked stronger or colder than my actual personality because the outer corners of my eyes turned upward, so my biggest concern was wanting to make my eye shape look a little softer. I wanted my overall impression to be softened naturally rather than having an overly widened look, and I think it turned out naturally, just as I hoped.
Now, at week 2, most of the major swelling has gone down, and it does not interfere with my daily life at all. However, there is still a little bruising under my eyes, and I think the bruising needs a bit more time. Still, when I look in the mirror, the change does not look overly obvious, and I feel like the impression of the outer corners of my eyes has become much softer than before, so I am very satisfied.
People around me have also said things like, “Something looks different, but it looks natural,” and “Your impression looks a bit more relaxed,” so I feel like I’m not just being satisfied on my own for no reason. So far, the scars are not very noticeable either, and I am generally satisfied with the result. I think this review may be helpful for those who want natural lateral and lower canthoplasty.
