Will there be scars after canthoplasty surgery?

When it comes to changing one's face, I believe everyone thinks of plastic surgery, and naturally there will be cosmetic surgery. Everyone has heard of canthoplasty, the so-called canthoplasty, which is also divided into inner canthus opening and outer canthus opening. Usually, the inner canthus opening is more common. It is to remove the excess upper eyelid tissue without leaving obvious scars, which is also called canthoplasty.

Canthoplasty surgery can make our eyes more vivid and bright.

Through canthoplasty surgery, your eyes can become more beautiful. But some people are worried about whether there will be scars after canthoplasty surgery? If so, how big will the impact be?

Will canthoplasty leave scars? Because the operation is ingeniously designed and the scope of the operation is extremely small, the surgical instruments required are extremely delicate and the surgical techniques are extremely advanced. In this way, all the incisions are either overlapped with skin folds or hidden in the shadows of the sunken corners of the eyes, and almost no one can find any traces of the operation. The incisions from canthoplasty surgery heal by filling with scar tissue. Even if the scars from some incisions are very slight and almost invisible to the naked eye, there will still be scar tissue inside.

Will canthoplasty surgery leave scars? However, canthoplasty scars are not scars from the incision itself, but contracture scars. In joints that are easily movable, if the scar penetrates the joint, contracture scars are likely to occur. For example, contracture scars may appear on the neck, the palms of fingers, between two fingers, corners of the mouth, inner and outer corners of the eyes, and where the nose and face meet. The contracture scar does not appear when the stitches are removed after the canthoplasty. It will start to appear 12 days after the stitches are removed and will slowly re-form the epicanthus that the doctor originally removed. It may be lighter or heavier than before the canthoplasty. It takes at least 90 days after canthoplasty surgery to fully recover and achieve the ultimate effect.

As for the canthoplasty surgery, you should understand by now that there will definitely be scars after the surgery, but the scars are very subtle. Although there is scar tissue inside, it is almost invisible to our naked eyes. Therefore, it can achieve the desired effect and you don’t have to worry too much. However, don’t do the canthoplasty surgery casually. At the very least, you should find an authoritative hospital to perform the surgery.
