Sleek, Elongated Eye Shape—Balanced and Natural

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.

Who’s a Good Candidate

• Desire for a slightly upturned, elongated outer eye
• Lateral hooding or short palpebral fissure width
• Màu mí mắt đẹp và kỳ vọng thực tế
• Seeking permanent shape refinement vs. temporary thread lifts

What It Improves

• Outer-eye openness and horizontal length
• Mild lateral hooding and downward slant
• Subtle tilt for a sleek, “cat-eye” aesthetic
• Can harmonize with brow/temple contour

Phương pháp phẫu thuật (Tùy chỉnh)

• Precise marking of tilt, length, and canthal position
• Canthopexy/canthoplasty to stabilize the new angle
• Gentle lateral canthal web release when indicated
• Fine layered closure for minimal scarring at the outer corner

What to Expect on Surgery Day

• Anesthesia: local with sedation or general (case-by-case)
• Time: ~45–90 minutes
• Incision: tiny at the outer canthus, hidden in natural lines
• Discharge: same day with cold-compress plan

Recovery Timeline

• Swelling/bruising: 3–7 days (concealer after day 3–4 if cleared)
• Suture removal: 5–7 days
• Tinh chỉnh hình dạng góc: 4–8 tuần; ổn định cuối cùng 2–3 tháng

Results You Can Expect

• Sleeker lateral lift and elongated eye shape
• Balanced, symmetric outer corners
• Natural blink and tear function preserved

Chăm sóc sau phẫu thuật

• Cold compress 48 hours, sleep elevated 1 week
• Lubricating drops/ointment as prescribed
• Avoid makeup on the corner, contact lenses, sauna ~2 weeks
• SPF 50+ and gentle scar care after suture removal

Combination Plans

• Brow-tail lift (thread/endoscopic) for added lateral openness
• Upper blepharoplasty/ptosis repair if lid skin or muscle is contributing
• Under-eye refinements (tear-trough/fat reposition) for full harmony
• Laser toning/LDM later for redness/texture polish

Safety & Suitability

• Not for active eye infection or severe dry eye without management
• Fitzpatrick-aware scar protocols to reduce PIH risk

FAQs

Will it look too dramatic?
We design subtle, elegant tilt—not exaggerated angles.

Is it permanent?
Yes, results are long-lasting; aging continues naturally.

Liệu nó có làm thay đổi chức năng của nước mắt không? Chúng ta vẫn giữ nguyên sự hỗ trợ của góc mắt và cơ chế chớp mắt để bảo vệ sự thoải mái.
