Mango Canthoplasty (Lateral & Lower) and Under-Eye Fat Repositioning

* Basic Information

# Female in her 20s

# The outer corners of the eyes are closed off, making them look narrow and stuffy.

# Desires to improve a somewhat ‘harsh’ impression.

# Looks tired due to bulging fat under the eyes.

* Consultation

# The patient visited because her eyes appeared narrow and cramped due to the upward-slanting, closed-off outer corners. This can often give off a slightly sharp or harsh impression.

# We planned to open the eyes up for a more refreshed look using VIBE Plastic Surgery’s signature canthoplasty, the ‘Mango Canthoplasty’.

# She was also concerned about so-called ‘dark circles’ caused by bulging under-eye fat. We decided that smoothing out the under-eye area through fat repositioning would create a much brighter appearance.

* Surgical Plan

# Mango Canthoplasty (Lateral + Lower Canthoplasty)

# Under-Eye Fat Repositioning

* Post-operative Progress

# The patient is very satisfied as her eyes look larger and her impression has become much softer now that the outer corners are opened up!

# VIBE’s unique Mango Canthoplasty significantly reduces the recurrence rate through secure fixation!!

# Bulging under-eye fat can make one look swollen and tired. The advantage of under-eye fat repositioning is that it can be resolved relatively simply without visible scarring by working through the inner conjunctiva.

Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon!

VIBE comes from rich experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of surgery is Mango Epicanthoplasty?

How does my impression change after Mango Epicanthoplasty?

Will there be scars after lower eyelid fat repositioning surgery?
