Eye widening surgery is one of the most sought-after procedures in Korea for those who want bigger, brighter, and more open-looking eyes without losing natural harmony. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, eye widening is performed with a high-precision, anatomy-focused approach that enhances eye shape while preserving softness and balance.

UE Plastic Surgery is known for creating refined, natural, and elegant results—never exaggerated or artificial. Whether you want a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic open-eye look, UE tailors each procedure to your facial proportions.

What Is Eye Widening Surgery?

Eye widening surgery enhances the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the eyes to make them appear:

• Larger
• Brighter
• More defined
• More symmetrical
• Naturally open

Depending on your needs, this may include inner corner reshaping, outer corner widening, or lowering of the eye shape for greater openness.

UE Plastic Surgery specializes in delivering results that look natural and effortless.

Types of Eye Widening Surgery at UE Plastic Surgery

1. Medial Epicanthoplasty (Inner Corner Release)

Ideal for patients with:

• Narrow inner corners
• Epicanthal folds
• Close-set eyes
• Smaller eye width

This surgery smooths the inner corner, widens the horizontal eye length, and improves definition between the eyelid and the tear duct area.

Benefits

• Natural inner-corner opening
• Improved symmetry
• Sharper, more refined look
• Minimal scarring with advanced techniques

2. Lateral Canthoplasty (Outer Corner Widening)

Perfect for those who want a larger, more open eye shape without exaggeration.

This technique gently opens the outer corner, increasing horizontal width while maintaining lid stability.

Benefits

• Softer, more open eye shape
• Balanced eye proportion
• No “round-eye” deformity with UE’s method
• Great for patients with upward-tilted or short outer corners

3. Lateral Hotz Procedure (Eye-Lowering / Downward Widening)

For individuals with sharp, upward-tilted eyes or those who want a softer, more approachable impression.

This procedure lowers the lower lid to create a more open, relaxed eye shape.

Benefits

• Softer, gentler appearance
• Improved vertical eye height
• Natural, smooth eye contour
• Popular among patients seeking a friendlier look

4. Extended Eye Widening (Combination Surgery)

For maximum balance and openness, UE Plastic Surgery can combine:

• Medial epicanthoplasty
• Lateral canthoplasty
• Eye-lowering procedures

This provides a customized widening effect that maintains harmony with your nose bridge, cheekbones, and brow shape.
