Q&A

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Does adhesion occur after canthoplasty?

After canthoplasty, adhesion between skin tissues may occur in some cases. However, to help minimize this, the procedure is not performed as a simple incision alone; instead, it is carried out using 1mm Plastic Surgery Clinic’s specialized technique, which helps reduce the likelihood of the tissues reattaching

Q. Will there be any visible scarring?

The procedure is performed through a minimal incision designed to help reduce visible scarring, so in most cases, scars are not prominent and heal naturally over time

Q. Why does blood sometimes accumulate in the eye after surgery?

Mild oozing of blood immediately after surgery is relatively common and can usually be controlled with gentle pressure. In some cases, however, a hematoma may develop, causing more significant swelling, which may require stronger compression and additional treatment from the medical team
