Purpose of the guideline: | Epicanthus is a facial feature of Oriental race, and its existence affects the eye shape and facial proportion of Oriental people. With the development of plastic surgery technology and the changes of aesthetic sense in Chinese people in recent years, the number of operations for the correction of epicanthus has increased dramatically, and many new surgical methods have emerged constantly. However, there are still disputes regarding the diagnosis, surgical indications, surgical techniques and postoperative scar management of epicanthus. There is no consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of epicanthus at present. Here we organized domestic experts in related fields to co-write this consensus, aiming to provide guiding opinions for the diagnosis and treatment of epicanthus. |
