The procedure for removing epicanthal folds can effectively eliminate the excess skin in the inner corners of the eyes to change the shape of the eye corners and clear up wrinkles.
This minor cosmetic surgery is currently very popular, especially among middle-aged and elderly women.
Before the surgery began, Xiao Tianhua lay there while Chen Cang started drawing lines, delineating the range for the removal of the epicanthal folds on both sides.
This step was the most difficult!
After Chen Cang finished drawing, the supporting role made a dazzling entrance.
Zhang Zhixin routinely disinfected the area and laid out sterile drapes, then applied a suitable amount of 2% lidocaine to the inner canthus for local infiltration anesthesia.
Once effective, Yang Tao first addressed the right side, cutting along the designed line for an improved "Z-plasty" on the skin, separated the subcutaneous tissue, and formed a skin flap.
