なめらかで細長い目の形 - バランスが取れていて自然

Cat Eye Surgery (lateral canthoplasty/canthopexy) subtly tilts and elongates the outer eye by releasing or repositioning the lateral canthus and tightening supporting tissues. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified facial surgeon customizes angle, length, and support for an elegant lift—never over-pulled.
