Dr. Li Fengyong
The outer canthoplasty surgery is generally aimed at individuals with conditions such as wide-set eyes or small eyes. For people with wide-set eyes, this procedure removes the epicanthal fold and enlarges the inner corner of the eye, thereby reducing the distance between the two eyes. For those with small eyes, outer canthoplasty can widen the eye fissure, elongate the eye shape, and improve the appearance of small eyes.
