Her specialties include general treatment of the eye area, injections, and sagging skin. I provide treatments that focus on beauty with the medical stance of "sincerely addressing the ideals of the patient.

Hello!

Designing natural beauty with trust.

I am Masataka Fujihashi, a board-certified plastic surgeon.

 

 

"I want my eyes to look a little softer." "I want to make my eyes look bigger by widening the whites."

For those with such requests, the following is highly popular: Glamorous Line Formation is.

Glamorous Line is,Lower the curve of the lower eyelidSurgery to extend the visible range of the sclera downwardis.

Unlike ptosis surgery, which focuses solely on the “upward direction,” this method can make the eyes appear larger in all directions.Downward changes particularly soften the impression.will do it for you.

 

 

■ How the Glamorous Line is Formed

The shape of the lower eyelid is,CPF (capsulopalpebral fascia)thatThe tissue is maintained by its attachment to the tarsal plate.

By suturing this portion and the tarsal plate, we lower the curve of the lower eyelid in the desired direction.

We carefully determine the placement position together with the patient while looking in the mirror.

especiallylower white of the eyerequires the utmost careAlso, the amount you can reduce varies significantly depending on whether you normally wear colored contact lenses.

When wearing colored contact lenses, achieving a look that barely qualifies as three-white eyes makes it easier for the eyes to appear three-white without lenses. Therefore, pre-operative consultation and design are extremely important.

 

 

■ Design Trends and Considerations

The most common request isFocus on lowering the outer part (toward the outer corner of the eye)In such cases.

When the outer side drops“Gentle and cute” impressionThe pupils become larger, and the whites of the eyes also expand and grow larger.

However,Those with naturally upturned eyes should be careful.is.

Since the bone structure at the outer corner of the eye itself doesn't change, lowering only the outer part significantly will...The outer curve appears to rise abruptly, creating an unnatural line.There are times when...

 

When the primary goal is to improve upturned eyes,In some cases, lateral canthoplasty (droopy-eye corner surgery) may be more suitable.There is.

By the way,Lateral Canthoplasty and Glamorous Line FormationThese can be combined, and this combination is the method that makes the whites of the eyes appear largest.

Furthermore, not just "on the outside,"Center-aligned designThere are also a certain number of people who prefer this, and we adjust how much to lower each area by approximately how many millimeters according to individual preferences.

 

 

■ Regarding Backtracking

Glamorous Line Formation is,Procedures prone to relapseis known as.

Even if there were a 10-point change immediately after the procedure,

• 1 week later → approximately 7

• 1 to 3 months later → Approximately 5 to 6

It generally calms down.

When prices drop significantly, the subsequent rebound tends to be correspondingly large.

Completion is basically3 months after surgeryis

Designs that feel “just right” immediately often inevitably become unsatisfactory over time.

This "design adjustment anticipating regression" requires considerable experience; honestly, you can't reliably control the degree of change after handling just a few or even dozens of cases.

Among the changes described as “natural” on social media and elsewhere, there are also numerous cases where the necessary changes are not being achieved.

What matters is,Whether one possesses the skill to produce distinct variations

With technology capable of making significant changes, you can freely control the natural finish as well.And we can also predict to some extent how much recovery will occur after three months.

In fact, during consultations for revision surgery at other clinics, some patients come to us saying, "They told me it couldn't be lowered any further" or "They said it's already low enough."Technically, there are often cases where it can be lowered further.

However, it's not just about "how much can be lowered," but also about "You also need the ability to judge whether it looks unnatural when lowered.

The line between the patient's ideal and where it becomes unnatural,Carefully alignAbove all else, it is most important.
