Abstract

Objective: To explore the clinical effect of improved epicanthus correction combined with double eyelid surgery. Methods: From February 2019 to February 2020, 70 patients with epicanthus who underwent surgical treatment were treated as study participants. The computer 1:1 grouping method was adopted. Thirty-five patients in the reference group were treated with epicanthus correction, and 35 patients in the experimental group were treated with improved epicanthus correction combined with double eyelid surgery. The operation effect was compared. Results: The satisfaction scores of morphological aesthetics and prognosis recovery in the experimental group were higher than those in the reference group (P < 0.05). The recurrence rate of scar hyperplasia and epicanthus in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The improved epicanthus correction combined with double eyelid surgery can engender ideal correction effect and reduce postoperative adverse outcomes. Therefore, the combined operation scheme is feasible.
