Upper Blepharoplasty Revision and Dual Canthoplasty (Mango Canthoplasty)
A case study of a 30s female undergoing upper blepharoplasty revision and signature Mango Canthoplasty to correct sagging eyelids and a closed eye shape.
* Basic Information
# Female in her 30s
# History of double eyelid surgery via the buried method several years ago; however, the lines have unraveled and the skin has sagged, covering the original crease.
# The outer corners of the eyes appear closed off, making the eyes look small and cramped.
* Consultation
# We planned to create symmetrical double eyelids and address the sagging through a revision upper blepharoplasty surgery.
# Since the outer corners were closed, the eyes looked small and stuffy. We planned to open them up refreshingly using VIBE Plastic Surgery’s signature canthoplasty, ‘Mango Canthoplasty’.
* Surgical Plan
# Upper Blepharoplasty (Revision)
# Mango Canthoplasty (Dual Canthoplasty: Lateral + Lower Canthoplasty)
* Post-operative Progress
# Through the upper blepharoplasty revision, natural yet larger-looking eyes have been achieved!
# The patient is very satisfied as the outer corners are now open, making the eyes look bigger and creating a softer overall impression.
# VIBE’s unique Mango Canthoplasty significantly reduces the recurrence rate through secure fixation!! If you are curious about the principles and methods of the surgery, please refer to the following.
