Is it guaranteed that Canthopexy won't change the shape of the eyes? (photos)

Asked By:jfdjfjdss in Los Angeles, California

I like my eye shape, it should not change. I would just like my lower eyelids to be a little firmer. Would that be possible with CanthoPEXY? So, Is it guaranteed that CanthoPEXY WILL NOT change the shape of the eyes? Would there be a risk of my eyes getting smaller with CanthoPEXY? Could CanthoPEXY change the shape of my eyes? How long does CanthoPEXY last? Could it happen that it jumps back to its original position after 5 years or so and then the eyes are even worse?
