The surgery does not alter the
orbicularis oculi muscle itself,
but since the eye corner is fixed to the inner periosteum,
you may notice slight unnaturalness
when smiling in the early stages.
As swelling subsides, this gradually improves.

Other clinics often fix the center of the lower eyelid,
which interferes with muscle movement,
but Lovely Canthoplasty aligns with the direction of
muscle fibers and fixes it to the
periosteum near the eye corner,
causing far less discomfort when smiling.
Any awkwardness is temporary and improves with healing.
