Will Eye Corners Reattach after Lateral Canthoplasty?

Lateral canthoplasty is a surgical option suitable for individuals with small or close-set eyes. 

Many patients express concerns about the possibility of tissue re-adhesion at the corners of the eyes following this procedure.

Yes, there is a possibility of re-adhesion. However, it's essential to note that skilled surgeons always take this into consideration during the procedure. 

Additionally, in cases where both lateral canthoplasty and lower canthoplasty are performed simultaneously, the risk of re-adhesion is reduced. This combined approach not only enlarges the eyes horizontally and vertically but also minimizes the likelihood of tissue sticking back together.

We strongly advise consulting with a highly experienced plastic surgeon before considering any eye surgery to address concerns and explore the most suitable options.
