Partial Incision Ptosis Correction and Epicanthoplasty
A case study of a teenage female patient who achieved a clearer and lighter appearance through partial incision ptosis correction, fat removal, and epicanthoplasty.

* Basic Information
# Female in her teens
# Eye-opening strength: Slightly weak
# Skin thickness: Moderate
# Puffy eyelids due to excess fat
* Consultation
# The eyelids appear puffy due to a high volume of fat. We planned to create a lighter and more refreshed look through fat removal.
# We decided to open up the Mongolian fold that makes the eyes look stuffy, ensuring the eyes appear wider and more open!
* Plan
# Partial Incision Ptosis Correction
# Epicanthoplasty

* Post-operative Progress
# The advantage of the partial incision method is that, like the non-incision method, the recovery period is short and the results are very natural.
# Can you see how the impression has become clearer and brighter through the ptosis correction? Additionally, the eyelid fat was appropriately removed, resulting in a more refreshed and lighthearted appearance.
Consultations and surgeries should be performed by a plastic surgery specialist!
