In this series of blogpost of Patient Diary, we're going to share the experience of a patient, who had incisional double eyelid, lateral canthoplasty (opening of the back end of the eyes), and eyelid fat removal procedures at Migo. Eyebags on the lower lid are caused by excessive fat tissues on the lower lid area. The patient already has double eyelid, but this can be fixed easily with surgical procedures.

She also decided to have lateral canthoplasty to elongate the eyes horizontally. < 4 Months and 2 Weeks Later> The eyes have more definition compared to the photos taken before the surgery. The crease is just high enough to create an uplifted appearance, yet not too high to look contrived.
