Canthopexy: what it is and how it works

Canthopexy is a surgical technique used to tighten and lift the outer corners of the eyelids. This procedure aims to create a subtle lifting effect, thus rejuvenating the overall appearance of the face.

Types of Canthopexy

There are several types of canthopexy, including lateral canthopexy, subconjunctival canthopexy, and subcutaneous canthopexy. Your surgeon will assess your situation and recommend the technique that best suits your needs.

Canthopexy: who is it for?

Individuals looking to reduce the appearance of crow's feet or sagging of the outer corners of the eyes may be good candidates for canthopexy. A consultation with a plastic surgeon will help determine if this procedure is suitable for you.
