Conditions for Beautiful Eyes Revealed by Dr. Seo Seung-jo of Uber Plastic Surgery: Which Eyes Suit Me and Which Don't?

Hello. This is Uber Plastic Surgery!

In the past, having double eyelids and

large eyes was the absolute standard for beautiful eyes, but

recently, with out-fold, in-fold, and monolids,

as unique eye shapes increase,

the absolute standard for what makes an eye beautiful has disappeared!

The important thing is not the eye shape itself,

but rather 'how well it suits my face.'

Today, Dr. Seo Seung-jo of Uber Plastic Surgery

will tell us what makes a beautiful eye and how to distinguish

eyes that do not suit your face!

In short, beautiful eyes can be described as harmonious eyes.

The first condition is the proportion of the eyes,

which includes the distance between the eyes and eyebrows, the space between the double eyelid line and eyelashes,

and the ratio of the distance between the double eyelid line and the eyebrows.

The second condition is the width of the sclera,

the third condition is the ratio of the epicanthal fold to the double eyelid line,

the fourth condition is the facial shape,

and the fifth condition is the degree of eye protrusion.

Then, what kind of eyes are considered unattractive?

The first is when the eyes look too close together due to an excessive epicanthoplasty.

In this case, anyone can easily tell that the surgery went wrong.

The second is when the eyes and eyebrows are close together,

but an out-fold double eyelid line was created.

If the eyes are slightly protruding,

an out-fold double eyelid can settle beautifully,

but if the eyes are somewhat sunken or the eyebrows are sagging,

there is no space to create a line due to the U-shaped structure.

Third, having large and protruding eyes

is not always advantageous for surgery.

When surgery goes wrong on such eyes, it can go very wrong.

People with these eyes usually have thin skin,

so if the double eyelid is made incorrectly, a sausage line can form,

and it is also difficult to lower it again if the surgery was done via the incision method.

However, if the line is too thin, the pupils will be exposed too much,

so it is important to set the double eyelid line at a height that is neither too high nor too low.

The fourth is when canthoplasty is performed disproportionately to the ratio of the sclera.

If the front part of the sclera surrounding the pupil is only slightly exposed,

but excessive lateral and lower canthoplasty is performed, the eyes will droop and only the back part of the sclera will be heavily exposed.

Then, the eyes may become longer, but the pupils can look cross-eyed,

and since the eyes are already close together, epicanthoplasty also becomes an ambiguous option.

Even when performing canthoplasty, the surgery must proceed

by carefully considering the ratio of the inner and outer sclera.

Lastly, it is when a strong line is created despite having deep epicanthal folds.

In this case, the front line of the eye is high while the back line sags backward,

or it can result in very fierce-looking eyes.

To create beautiful eyes, the epicanthal fold and the double eyelid line

must be made to connect smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the most important criterion for beautiful eyes?

How harmoniously they blend with your face is the most important factor. Rather than simply large eyes with double eyelids, beautiful eyes are those where five conditions—the distance between the eyes and eyebrows, the width of the whites of the eyes, face shape, eye protrusion, and the ratio of the epicanthic fold to the double eyelid line—are all in harmony.

Is it possible to have an out-fold double eyelid even if the distance between the eye and eyebrow is close?

It is not recommended if your eyes are sunken or your eyebrows are drooping. If you force an out-fold double eyelid when the eyes and eyebrows are close, there may not be enough space to create the line, making it look unnatural. However, if your eyes are slightly protruding, it might settle beautifully.

Are large and protruding eyes advantageous for double eyelid surgery?

It is not always advantageous. Large and protruding eyes usually have thin skin, so if the double eyelid is created incorrectly, there is a risk of developing a 'sausage line.' Also, it is difficult to lower the line after incisional surgery, so it is important to create a line of appropriate height, neither too high nor too low, from the beginning.

What should be considered when undergoing canthoplasty (epicanthoplasty/lateral canthoplasty)?

You should consider the ratio of the inner white and outer white of the eye surrounding the pupil. If the front white of the eye is slightly exposed and you excessively undergo lateral canthoplasty or lower canthoplasty, your pupils may appear to be drawn together. Therefore, canthoplasty should be performed according to the overall ratio of the whites of the eyes to achieve natural-looking eyes.

Are there any tips for double eyelid surgery on eyes with deep epicanthic folds?

The key is to design the double eyelid line to connect smoothly with the epicanthic fold. If the epicanthic fold is deep and you force a strong line, the front line of the eye may appear high and the back line droopy, making your impression look strong, so pay attention to a natural connection.
