Canthal Tilt and Hunter Eyes: Genetic vs Trainable
Canthal tilt and hunter eyes depend on three structures: lateral canthal tendon insertion point on the orbital rim (genetic, fixed by age 12), levator palpebrae superioris muscle tone (trainable), and periorbital fat distribution (modifiable via collagen synthesis, water retention, and adipocyte volume). The hunt for positive canthal tilt—lateral canthus 2–4 mm superior to medial canthus—intersects … Read more
