Epicanthoplasty - ME CLINIC SEOUL

NOTICE ABOUT SLEEPING ANESTHESIA

ME CLINIC SEOUL is using 'Sleep anesthesia' for all of our invasive procedures
and plastic surgeries. We use twilight anesthesia (Sleep anesthesia) for our plastic surgeries
and patients need to have a few tests before having safe anesthesia including blood tests for
most of the surgeries. And the patient can request for a preferred specific sleep-inducing
medication regarding body condition and must report before surgery or procedure
if you have any ALLERGIES or SIDE EFFECT HISTORY in your previous medical
procedures with anesthesia

Epicanthoplasty

- Epicanthoplasty is a rare eye surgery to modify the epicanthal folds.

- It can be a challenging procedure because the epicanthal folds overlay the lacrimal canaliculi (tear drainage canals).

- Although an epicanthic fold can also be associated with a less prominent upper eyelid crease (a feature commonly termed "single eyelids" as opposed to "double eyelids"), the two features are distinct a person may have both epicanthal folds and an upper eyelid crease, one and not the other, or neither. Single eyelids are reshaped using double eyelid surgery.

Surgery time and Anesthesia

- Total procedure time : 2 hours

- Local anesthesia or sleep inducing agent for deep sleep during surgery.
