Mango Canthoplasty: When should you consider it?

Hello.

This is Vibe Plastic Surgery.

When patients come to our clinic for consultations,

many are often unsure about the difference between lateral canthoplasty and lower canthoplasty,

or have various questions regarding eye-widening surgeries.

Today, we would like to introduce you to canthoplasty in general and Vibe’s exclusive technique,

‘Mango Canthoplasty’.

What is Canthoplasty?

Canthoplasty surgeries

largely include epicanthoplasty (front), lateral canthoplasty (back), epi-canthoplasty (upward), and lower canthoplasty (downward).

Canthoplasty is a surgical method that increases the horizontal or vertical length of the eyes

to create a clearer and more

open-looking eye shape.

Epicanthoplasty

This method improves eyes where the distance between them is wide or where a Mongolian fold is present,

thereby increasing the horizontal

length of the eye.

Epi-canthoplasty (45-degree Canthoplasty)

This is used when the skin heavily covers the front of the eye

or when the eye shape appears narrow and sharp.

It opens the inner corner at a 45-degree angle

from the starting point of the eye.

If someone with small eyes only undergoes epicanthoplasty,

it can sometimes result in a sharp look.

Therefore, performing it alongside epi-canthoplasty

can lead to much better results.

Lateral Canthoplasty

This surgical method lowers the outer corner of the eye, which may look aggressive if tilted upward,

to create a softer

and more approachable impression.

Lower Canthoplasty

By pulling the outer corner of the eye vertically,

this surgery increases the vertical length of the eye.

It transforms a fierce look into a bright,

soft, and kind

impression.

In the case of canthoplasty, if one focuses only on creating a line

without considering the actual condition of the eye,

it can actually ruin the eye shape.

Therefore, a thorough diagnosis is necessary to select the appropriate method

based on the individual’s eye condition.

Vibe’s Unique ‘Mango Canthoplasty’?

Vibe’s Mango Canthoplasty

not only extends the length of the eye but also expands the vertical size.

Through customized angle adjustment, it creates a naturally rounded eye shape

rather than a sharp one.

Who is a good candidate for Mango Canthoplasty?

✔ Those who want a more open eye shape

✔ Those who want a kinder, softer look

✔ Those with a fierce impression due to the angle of their eye corners

✔ Those whose eyes look short and stifled

Why you should choose Mango Canthoplasty

If you perform lateral canthoplasty alone

or only combine lateral and lower canthoplasty,

the bottom line inevitably becomes horizontal.

To create a more beautiful eye shape than traditional lateral/lower canthoplasty,

we developed Vibe’s specialized technique,

‘Mango Canthoplasty’.

Advantages of Mango Canthoplasty

✔ Completion of a larger and more open eye shape

✔ Performed non-incisionally, reducing the burden of scarring

✔ Fast surgery and recovery

Frequently Asked Questions about Canthoplasty

01. Does lateral canthoplasty close back up over time?

Vibe performs the surgery by considering the eye shape and tissue condition

to prevent it from returning to its original state.

By firmly performing periosteal fixation, we ensure the results

do not fuse back together even as time passes.

02. Does canthoplasty leave a lot of scarring?

Vibe Plastic Surgery

places sutures in inconspicuous areas

so that the surgical marks are not noticeable.

Furthermore, we use special suturing techniques to prevent adhesions,

so you do not have to worry about scarring or unwanted tissue bonding.

03. Is it a side effect if the under-eye ‘aegyo-sal’ bunches up after lower canthoplasty?

The firm part felt in the lower eyelid is called the tarsal plate.

Lower canthoplasty involves fixing this tarsal plate

to the lower septum or periosteum and pulling it down.

Because of this, skin and tissue naturally gather in the aegyo-sal area.

Therefore, it is difficult to call this a side effect;

rather, it is a phenomenon where tissue bunches up

proportionally to the degree of the lower canthoplasty.

In canthoplasty, even a 1mm difference can lead to different results,

requiring highly sophisticated surgical skills.

Therefore, we hope you choose a clinic like ours that establishes an ideal surgical plan

and proceeds with the method that best fits each individual.
