Endoscopic Brow Lift, Revision Double Eyelid Surgery, and Mango Canthoplasty (Dual Canthoplasty)
A case study of a female patient in her 20s achieving a semi-out double eyelid line and elongated eyes through a brow lift and dual canthoplasty.
* Basic Information
- Female in her 20s
- Medical History: Previous incisional double eyelid surgery
- Patient Goals: ‘I already have large eyes, but I want a semi-out double eyelid line. My eyes feel too round vertically, so I want them to look longer horizontally.’
* Consultation
The previous double eyelid line has loosened, and the narrow space between the eyebrows and eyes creates a heavy, stuffy appearance. Simply re-fixing the double eyelid would not improve this sensation; in fact, it could make the area look even more puffy. This is especially true when aiming for a semi-out line, so we must be very careful to avoid a bloated look.
The forehead and eyes cannot be considered separately. Harmony between these two areas is essential to achieve the ideal eye shape!
* Surgical Plan
- Fix-up Ptosis Correction
- Endoscopic Brow Lift
- Incisional Double Eyelid Surgery (Revision)
- Mango Canthoplasty (Dual Canthoplasty: Lateral + Lower)
* Post-operative Progress
1. What is the most noticeable change? Even though a semi-out double eyelid line was naturally created, the eyelids do not look puffy at all, right? A very crisp and refreshed line has been achieved.
2. VIBE Plastic Surgery’s signature Mango Canthoplasty (Dual Canthoplasty) has successfully created eyes that look wide and elongated!
Always consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon for surgery!

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are endoscopic forehead lift and double eyelid revision surgery performed together?
Yes, because the forehead and eyes must be in harmony to create an ideal eye shape. If the space between the eyebrows and eyes is narrow, making the eyes appear stuffy, or if the double eyelid line looks puffy even after re-fixing it, a forehead lift can enhance the effect of eye shape improvement. It is especially effective when desiring a semi-out line.
What kind of surgery is Mango Epicanthoplasty?
Mango Epicanthoplasty is VIBE Plastic Surgery's signature procedure, also known as lateral canthoplasty or dual canthoplasty. This surgery helps to make the eyes appear longer horizontally, improving the overall eye shape. It can be considered when you want to make round eyes look longer.
What kind of lines can be created with double eyelid revision surgery?
Yes, in this case, a natural semi-out double eyelid line was created. A fresh line can be achieved without the problems of a loose or puffy eyelid after previous incisional double eyelid surgery. Various lines can be created depending on the individual's eye condition and desired design.
How long is the recovery period after surgery?
The exact recovery period is not specified in the text. However, post-operative photos taken one month after surgery are provided, suggesting that initial significant swelling or changes occur within a month. Individual caution is needed as complications such as bleeding and inflammation may occur.
Is a semi-out line possible even if the eyelids look puffy?
Yes, it is possible. In this case, the eyelids looked puffy after previous incisional double eyelid surgery, but a natural semi-out line was achieved without puffiness through endoscopic forehead lift and double eyelid revision surgery. A surgical plan that considers the harmony between the forehead and eyes is important.
Who performs the surgery?
Yes, consultations and surgeries are performed by a plastic surgeon. Dr. Yu Young-moon of Barunsaenggak Barunsungyeong is mentioned in the text. It is important to decide on surgery after sufficient consultation with a plastic surgeon.
