Asian Eye Lid Surgery

There are several different types of cosmetic eye lid surgery. One type of cosmetic eye lid surgery is asian eye lid surgery. This procedure is a type of Blepharoplasty. This type of surgery is given it's name due to the fact that more than half of all Asians are born with no fold in their upper eye lid. The lack of a fold in the upper eyelid is referred to as a "single eye lid". On top of usual blepharoplasty procedure, asian eye lid surgery adds a fold to the upper eyelid. Having a fold in the upper eye lid is known as having a "double eye lid". This achieves a rounder and larger appearance to the eyes.

This appearance is achieved during the procedure by taking out a small amount of excess skin, fat pads, and bits of skin tissue. It is important that the surgeon is familiar with asian characteristics in this procedure so that he or she knows where to place the crease, where to make incisions and how much tissue and/or fat to remove from the eye lid. This is a simple and speedy procedure. Most of the time, this is an outpatient procedure.

After surgery, you should expect the crease to be in a higher position than one would want it. With time and healing, the crease will start to fall into place where it should be. This can take up to a month.

Discoloration, bruising, and swelling should be expected in the week following your procedure. You can catalyze the healing process by following all instructions given to you by your surgeon. Again, when searching for the surgeon that is right for you, consider that for this procedure the surgeon should be well-versed in the asian double eye lid cosmetic procedure and asian characteristics.
