What is canthopexy?
Canthopexy is an aesthetic surgical procedure designed to reshape the corners of the eyes to give them a younger and more energetic appearance. Through this surgery:
- Wrinkles around the eyes are reduced
- Under-eye bags are diminished
- The look is rejuvenated and more open
- Facial symmetry is improved
Who is a candidate for canthopexy?
Canthopexy is generally recommended for patients presenting with sagging or laxity of the lower eyelid, often due to aging. Ideal candidates must be in good general health, without medical conditions that could increase risks. The procedure is for those who have a tired or sad appearance due to laxity. It is also indicated in cases of vision problems related to this laxity. Finally, deformation of the outer corner of the eye also justifies this procedure.
What is the difference between canthopexy and canthoplasty?
Canthopexy and canthoplasty are two cosmetic surgery procedures used to improve the shape and function of the eyelids. Here are their differences:
Canthopexy
Canthopexy is a less invasive procedure than canthoplasty. It firms and supports the lower outer canthus. The technique uses sutures to fix tissues in place. The procedure lasts between 30 minutes and one hour. Recovery is quick and post-operative effects are simple.
Canthoplasty
Canthoplasty is a more complex procedure than canthopexy. It reconstructs the eye angle with larger incisions. This technique is used to correct severe deformities. Recovery is longer than with simple canthopexy. The choice depends on the severity of the laxity.
What are the alternatives to canthopexy?
There are alternatives to correct canthus position, depending on the severity of the problem:
1. Filler injections
Hyaluronic acid injections are an interesting non-surgical alternative. They fill hollow areas around the canthus. Effects generally last from 6 months to 2 years. This approach offers rejuvenation without incision or scar.
2. Non-surgical lifting techniques
Several non-surgical alternatives exist to rejuvenate the eye contour. Thread lifts stimulate collagen production in skin tissues. HIFU uses high-intensity focused ultrasound for a lifting effect. These methods offer natural and progressive results over time.
How is canthopexy surgery performed?
Canthopexy takes place in several simple steps. Anesthesia is local or general depending on the case. The procedure lasts between 30 minutes and one hour. A small incision is made on the target area. Sutures fix tissues in place for a lifting effect. The procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis depending on patient condition.
What are the post-operative effects?
After canthopexy, patients must follow several important recommendations. Mild pain is treated with simple painkillers. Swelling and bruising are normal and disappear within a few days. An antiseptic eye drop should be applied 4 to 6 times a day. Avoid reading, screens, sun and high temperatures. Wearing sunglasses is strongly recommended. Rest is necessary avoiding physical exertion.
What are the advantages of canthopexy?
Canthopexy offers several advantages for rejuvenating the eye contour. The lifting effect is immediate on the look. Sagging of the lower eyelids is corrected durably. Vision may be improved in case of bothersome laxity. Results are permanent in terms of firmness. The procedure is quick, lasting between 30 minutes and one hour. Recovery is fast, with return to activities within a few days.
What are the risks and complications?
Although canthopexy is a relatively simple procedure, there are risks to be aware of. Infection is rare and prevented by antibiotics. Bruising and swelling are normal and disappear within a few days. Change in eye shape is possible in case of inadequate care. Misalignment of the canthus is rare but possible. Excessive bleeding is exceptional. Healing problems are also rare. Choosing a qualified and experienced surgeon minimizes these risks.
What results can be expected?
Expected results of canthopexy are both aesthetic and functional. The look becomes younger and more open. Lower eyelids are firmer and tighter. Under-eye bags are significantly reduced. Facial symmetry is harmoniously improved. These results are durable, although aging continues naturally.

Frequently asked questions about canthopexy
1How long does it take to see the final result of a canthopexy?
The first results are visible immediately after the procedure, but the final result gradually settles. Swelling and bruising disappear in 1 to 2 weeks, and the scar refines over 2 to 3 months. The complete lifting effect is noticeable after 3 to 6 months.
2What daily care should be performed after canthopexy?
Apply cold compresses to the eyes during the first 48 hours to reduce swelling. Use an antiseptic eye drop 4 to 6 times a day as prescribed. Avoid rubbing your eyes and wear sunglasses outdoors. Sleep with your head elevated during the first week.
3Can you return to work immediately after canthopexy?
It is recommended to plan 5 to 7 days off work, especially if your job requires sustained visual attention (reading, screen). Return can be gradual. Avoid prolonged screen time during the first weeks to limit eye strain.
4What are the warning signs after canthopexy?
Seek emergency care if you experience intense pain not relieved by painkillers, significant redness, purulent discharge, fever (temperature > 38°C), or double vision. These signs may indicate an infection or complication requiring prompt management.
5Can canthopexy be performed under local anesthesia only?
Yes, canthopexy can be performed under local anesthesia with light sedation in most cases. This allows faster recovery and shorter hospitalization. The choice of anesthesia will be discussed with your surgeon based on your health and preferences.
6What activities are prohibited after canthopexy?
Avoid intense physical exertion, heavy lifting, contact sports and swimming (pool, sea) for 3 to 4 weeks. Also avoid direct sun exposure without protection and high temperatures (sauna, hammam) which can worsen swelling.
7Can you wear makeup after canthopexy?
It is advised to wait 7 to 10 days before applying makeup, allowing the incisions to heal properly. Use hypoallergenic products and avoid waterproof mascara which requires rubbing to remove. Gentle cleansing is essential.
