Home « Eyelid Surgery « Asian Eyelid Surgery

Asian eyelid surgery has been the most popular cosmetic surgery for Asians and Asian Americans for over fifty years. Asian eyelid surgery generally refers to the addition of an eyelid crease in the upper eyelid, but Asian eyelid surgery can include other procedures. The most important factor in Asian eyelid surgery is that it is tailored to the needs and eye structure of Asian patients.

Most Asian eyelid surgery procedures are done on an outpatient basis, with the patient returning home immediately following Asian eyelid surgery. Doing the surgery on an outpatient basis is more convenient for most patients, and Asian eyelid surgery are also lower as a result of doing the surgery in a non-hospital setting. Some Asian eyelid surgery procedures may be required to improve the vision of the patient, and if circumstances warrant, Asian eyelid surgery can often be covered by insurance. The technical aspects of Asian eyelid surgery are pretty much identical to other eyelid surgeries, with minor differences in Asian eyelid surgery relating to crease placement, location of incisions, and amount of tissue removed. Most patients undergoing Asian eyelid surgery have far less fat and other tissue in their eyelids than patients of other races. Asian eyelid surgery should be performed by a plastic surgeon who is familiar and experienced in Asian eyelid surgery procedures and understands the specific requirements.
