Epicanthoplasty carries certain risks. This procedure involves making an incision at the corner of the eye and re-suturing excess skin and tissue to widen the eye opening, resulting in a larger, more aesthetically pleasing appearance. If improperly performed, the surgery may fail and lead to complications such as uneven eye size, misaligned eye levels, or local tissue infection.
