    Types of Fox Eye Lift: Lateral, medial & dual canthoplasty

     Fox eye lift is a surgical procedure that aims to enhance the shape of your eyes. There are three types of canthoplasty, the lateral, the medial, and the dual one.

    What is Lateral Canthoplasty?

    During Lateral canthoplasty the specialists in aesthetic surgeries anchor the eye corner to the lateral orbital rim after almond eye aesthetics. It is usually done with lower blepharoplasty to adjust the slackness and misplacement of the lower eyelid. 

    Lateral canthoplasty aims at treating lower eyelid malposition conditions like ectropion and retraction.

    What is Medial Canthoplasty?

    During Medial or Epicanthoplasty, our board-certified plastic surgeon reduces the length and the gap between the eyelids. It consists in removing some tissues from the inner corner of the eyes.

    Medial canthoplasty aims at treating lower eyelid malposition or exposure keratopathy caused by facial paralysis.

    What is Dual Canthoplasty?

    Dual Canthoplasty is a combination of epicanthoplasty and Lateral Canthoplasty. This procedure generally aims to correct the bulging eyes.7

    Dual canthoplasty aims at making the eyes bigger by removing the Mongolian fold of the inner corner and the excessive skin.

    Canthoplasty procedure in Istanbul

    It is a reconstructive surgery used to correct drooping eyes, by tightening the muscles or ligaments supporting the outer corners of the eyelid.

    Eyelid surgery in IstanbulTurkey, essentially corrects the look of the eye. Canthopexy, on the other hand, is a less invasive surgery that is often confused with eyelid or double eyelid surgery, but which does not correct the shape of the eye.

    Fox eye lift surgery is used to correct eye structure and the negative or neutral canthus slants and sagging eyelids, which can be a cause of distress for the patient who does not like the appearance of his eyelids.

    Almond eye surgery in Turkey: Fox Eye Lift surgery

    The procedure varies from patient to patient, but the general goal is to cut the lower tendon, and then reposition or tighten it. To access this tendon, an incision is usually made at the outer corner of the eyelid. The tendon is pulled into its new position to support the eyelid and then glued back using stitches. 

    An experienced eye surgeon will take great care to make an incision in the natural crease of the eyelid, to minimize scarring after surgery.

    If a patient has only slight fallout, it may be more appropriate to practice a less invasive canthopexy procedure. Normally, both procedures take between 1 and 2 hours depending on the used method.

    Canthoplasty surgery: Recovery time

    During recovery, pain, bruising, and swelling may occur. However, they should disappear after 7–10 days.

    Are there side effects during Recovery?

    In some cases, people may notice a temporary vision alteration. However, the visual acuity will improve without any medical intervention.

    If your sight doesn't improve within 15 days, you must immediately contact your doctor.

    How to reduce side effects?

    Try to keep your head elevated and rest as much as you can at first. Patients should avoid exercise, rubbing the eye area, or applying makeup for a week.

    It is also important to respect to instructions of the doctor before and after the surgery.

Patients should appropriately choose a fully trained eye-plastic surgeon to perform sensitive plastic surgery.

    What are the additional expenses?
